Hi,

I am using the latest XBMC-git with AudioEngine support. I also enabled True-HD and DTS-HD as supported audio formats in settings. Whenever I am playing a movie with a DTS-HD MA track I can only hear a crackling noise coming out of my speakers. My receiver also does not show "DTS-HD", but only "7.1 PCM".

My system:

• Intel Core i5-3475S
  
• Intel HD4000 connected to Pioneer VSX-LX51 (HDMI)
  
• XBMC-git
  
• Linux 3.4.6
  
• xf86-video-intel-2.20.0
  

This is the relevant xbmc.log:

All other (non-HD) audio formats are working. Am I missing maybe a special configure switch when compiling XBMC? Or is there a special setting in advancedsettings.xml I am missing?
