Hi, I'm trying to test this out, but my receiver still shows "Dolby Digital" and there's just one (non-hd) audio track to choose from in xbmc when checking the audio screen during playback. I think I have the correct settings, I know I have a receiver that supports hd audio, the name of the file is exactly the same as the movie and in the same directory but with a .dtsma ending instead of .mkv. What am I doing wrong/missing?
edit: I'm assuming I don't need the w7 codec pack and the shark007 thingie that bluray mentioned somewhere, since that's for external players and this patch makes hd audio playback possible in xbmc itself, right?

Check your file with MediaInfo to see if it indeed contains a HD track.
Also your file doesn't need to be named .dtsma to work, .mkv is enough

No
A mkv is a container so everything should be inside.

Most of my collection is ripped with MAkeMKV and works fine. Reta, have you ever ripped a blu ray disc before?

Thanks for this Damian, I will wait for someone to confirm if the MakeMKV True-HD tracks are fixed before upgrading to this, since I am pretty happy with the workaround of just sending True-HD as bitstream for now.
