Your log doesn't show any real errors - what date is that RealTek driver? Is the volume at 100% in both XBMC and in the Windows audio panel? All enhancements off? XBMC thinks the sound is going through okay, so it's something between Windows, the driver and the receiver.

Oooh.. you started something here.. What's shortly mean ? A week.. a month?
My crystall ball says *censored*
No dates folks! - spoils all the tremendous fun the devs get to have squashing bugs, seeing what to include, building for various platforms, pushing code, updating web pages and announcements, etc. Plus we just like to watch people squirm
I'll stand by my earlier statement of "rolling out shortly"

Thank you Damian for feedback.
I tried with an Acer Revo70 PC ( AMD E-450 / 4GB RAM - freshest AMD drivers ) via HDMI to a Harman/Kardon AVR-460 receiver.
It is very interesting issue, because all audio formats from MKV/.M2TS/ISO go through via HDMI well to process in AVR,
except the DTS 5.1 audio files cause problem in .WAV or .DTS form.
As I already wrote if I set up the audio settings to "no DTS", the player decodes those files to Multichannel-PCM, and plays fine,
however it is not a "passthrough" solution.
I dont have any glue what is the problem with it. Do you? Or anyone?
Does anyone use similar AMD E-350/450 platform with the integrated HD6310/20 GPU?
Thank you for your help.
EDIT: Is that possbile to download the independent HD AUDIO extension/addon/pack for the base XBMC v11RC2? TY!
And just for info... it is the best mp sw ever seen in PC! I really love the skin, the design, handling! Amazing!
Most dts wav files lack the proper header for wave info. PAPlayer, the music player part of XBMC will decode DTS to PCM, and you're not losing anything, but it won't pass DTS through without all the proper header info, whereas DTS in video is fairly consistently conformant to standards. Don't forget, DTS-wav isn't really a standard, just a trick people found could be crammmed into the Redbook CD standard.
The second post of this thread has a link for Eden RC2 + this HDAudio patch.
