DTS-HD depends on DTS, if you disable DTS, DTS-HD will also be disabled.
Then DTS-Core (not the HD Master) format will be decoded and then (if > 2.0 channels) output as LPCM or if not and AC3 is there as AC3.

In your logs everything is okay. You just hear nothing?

That makes sense, but yeah I don't hear anything with any video that has DTS but the DTS-HD works fine.
If i turn off passthrough everything works ok.

AC3 works?

[Claudio.Sjo]

I followed your instructions to the letter. My A10-5700 APU is now working better on Linux than on Windows!

Fritsch - thanks! I really appreciate you taking the time to document this and helping the users out.

May you please point me to the right?
I have A10-5700 on Asus F2A85.

Thanks

AC3 works?

Just tried an AC3 and it does not work via passthrough either.
Strange that DTS-HD Master works and these others don't O_o; It even shows DTS-HD Master on the receiver, so at least I think that means it's working.

looks like there is a patch for the mpeg2 lockups

@metheos: No clue. I don't see anything in the logs. Never seen something like this in that combination.

@deadite66: That will be in 3.13-rc3, hopefully it works.

When it appears here: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~danvet/drm-...el-nightly you should have it in ubuntu mainline

Here is a quote of Alex Deucher via #radeon:

18:39 < agd5f> fritsch, zgreg: the dither stuff is for dealing with monitors
that support limited bpc (e.g., 6 vs 8 vs 10). I guess I
mis-understood what you were asking about.
18:40 < agd5f> for color range clamping, there is hardware in the display pipe
(part of the gamma correction stuff) that can be used. but at
the moment, there is nothing implemented for that

That's about the Limited / Full Range.

Hi,

I have az Asrock E350M1, followed by the instructions step-by-step from post 1, and the 1080p movies stutters. The audio sounds like fine, and the 720p movies also, but full HD movies falter, all of them. Playing directly from HDD, no network lag. Trying many configuration option but no effect, FPS falling down 13-15.

I lost the hope...

Here is my logs:

Please, help... :S

Your mesa is hopelessly outdated, you did not install the packages wsnipex provides.

[mortein79]

Dammit, I mised it... Thank you so mutch, it's work.

Just one question: when I fast forward or rewind, just lagging one second, and the FPS down to 13-14, and normalizing when release the button. It's normal? And what can I do for fixed it?

[fritsch]

I don't know if I understand you correctly. But what do you expect, when fast forwarding? How would you implement that: 8x speed => 8 times number of fps :-)

@deadite66 Yeah, I saw this earlier today too - sounds promising!

@fritsch Any chance you could patch it in to an updated kernel release?

[fritsch]

@libgradev: I don't plan to update the kernel anymore. I think it comes to the drm-nightly just by tomorrow.

Edit: Not there yet, wait until you see it here: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~airlied/linux/?h=drm-fixes

?uestion...

when the 3.13 kernel does get released, will we need to upgrade to Trusty?

i actually tried to load the 3.13-rc2 kernel, and I did not have HDMI signal.
then I noticed that the kernel is only released under Trusty mainline...

[fritsch]

Works fine for me, trusty only means "kernel config" of upcoming trusty release.
