When I play a DTS-HD mkv file, my amplifier shows all the surround and front channels are being output correctly, but there is no LFE channel. My receiver is capable of accepting hd sound and plays blue ray discs in full surround. If I play the same file through vlc player lfe is output, all be it in the PCM format.
Does anyone have any idea why the lfe channel is missing in xbmc playback?

That is not a debug log, please following the instructions on wiki by following the link I posted previously.
Also make sure you play a problem file once debug logging is enabled.

well, xbmc opened passthrough of the DTS-HD audio stream and detected all 8 channels.
i think u have disabled ur subwoofer for DTS-HD in the receivers menu.
so play a file with DTS-HD track and check ur AVR settings (while its playing)
( VLC doesn´t bitstream HD Audio without third party plugins, it just play the DTS core, and u can have another LFE management for DTS-HD)
