I see that. I knew that DTS/AC3 bitstreaming used 2 channels because I used to run Toslink / SPDIF and I had read up a bit in the past. It would send 2 lossless LPCM channels and bitstream DTS/AC3 5.1 when played.
I just didn't put it together that XMBC would need to detect 7.1 @ 192khz bandwidth over HMDI in order to enable DTSHD/TrueHD bitstreaming. Thanks for clueing me in! I can see how it would cause a problem on my setup by only detecting m_channels: FL,FR.
I wonder if anyone else has had problems with the AMD HD5670 and bitstreaming HD Audio> I wouldn't guess it was an EDID problem with my SONY receiver since it works with Windows, and still doesn't work in Ubuntu with the EDID override.
