Hi,
I have XBMCbuntu 11.10 wich it was upgraded to 12.04. XBMC it downloaded from git and compiled with options:
./configure --prefix=/path/to/xbmc --disable-pulse. When I try play all movies which has DTS soundtrack it doesn't work. I can't hear anything.
Movie with DTS-HD/DTS-MA I hear only a noise. In XBMC menu I have a good sound.
Anybody had a similar problems?

What are you using for audio output? Do you have passthrough enabled? What is you speaker configuration set to?
To be safe I'd disable passthrough and set speak configuration to 2.0

Hi,
audio settings have to be
audio output XBMC = HDMI output >>> do you have also connected your receiver via HDMI?
are the receiver (SR-608) settings for the input device is also setted to HDMI Audio?
speaker configuration XBMC = 5.1 or 7.1
device settings XBMC >>> have look through your selectable devices there...there should be one like
Audio HD HDMI

I have still problem with DTS soundtrack and DTS-HD/DTS-MA.
In 1st case I have xbmc is connected
1) XBMC player -> HDMI -> TV - DTS it doesn't work, it's works only AC3
On current xbmc version from git I cat choose audio device like: plughw,hw,card e.g, but in passtrough I can only have one options (my tv name). In xbmc 11.0 in both options I can choose the same custom device.
2) XBMC player -> HDMI -> SR-608 -> TV - DTS works, DTS-HD/DTS-MA doesn't work , I tested speaker configuration 5.1 and 7.1, in both options I hear only a noise

TVs almost never support dts bitstreaming. uncheck dts capable receiver and it will be transcoded to ac3 on the fly.
what video card are you using?
