Bitstream HD audio works under windows 8.1
oh right, this is the haswell i3/i5 thread and indeed bitstream HD audio works just fine on my haswell i3 NUC. I was getting confused as I also have Celeron 2820 NUCs and the Celerons don't do bitstream HD audio under windows due to PAP (protected audio path) issues - intel hasn't (or perhaps cant) release an IME driver for the Celeron which is what is required on every other system where it works. Netflix has similar issues on the Celeron and I believe it was something to do with them using DD EX or something like that. Sorry for getting confused, and bummer that there is no light at the end of the tunnel for Celeron HD audio still
