The problem is that I need the pvr-integration and therefore have to stick with either opdenkamp oder margro fork. I understand that you cannot provide support for all kinds of forks, but the error with your nightlies is the same.

EDIT: Hog mode does not matter either
Good morning sir. How is it a problem with the OS if everything works correctly in Lion/Mountain Lion with Eden, but not in nightly builds? I would be inclined to say that there's something wrong with the Audioengine. Even some posts in this thread are saying that optical works as it should with Eden and (M)Lion. Are you saying that it's implemented correctly in XBMC and Apple should fix OSX so that XBMC audio output won't break?
I'm just trying to understand what's going on. If there indeed is a bug with the optical out, should i create a separate thread for this same happening with HDMI audio?
Well, setting both OSX and XBMC to 5.1 and disabling ac3/dts passthrough helps and there's no loss of audio when switching between different formats. But, it sounds horrible. I immediately noticed that the center channel is way too loud, and it sounds very much like surround channels are mostly coming out of the center too.
This also seemed to mess with video decoding atleast on one x264/dts file that works fine with passthough enabled.

fixed, you can thank amet for chasing down some differences in the sea of code between Eden and mainline.

I just downloaded the nightly for today (the 20th) and I'm still having the exact same issue. After I've played one video with 5.1 audio over optical and switch to another I get no audio and picture stutter. Doesn't seem resolved to me. Am I missing something?
