Should I be worried ? Have I done something wrong
The settings are a bit different in Gotham - if you updated from Frodo you may have to set up some video/audio settings again.
Go to setting/system/audio and check passthrough is enabled, and DTS/AC3 are also enabled.
If there's still a problem the post output of "tvservice -a" after ssh-ing in.
Cheers for quick reply
I dont have option under audio for passthrough or DTS/AC3
I just have adudio output device (which is set as HDMI) and speaker configuration (listed as 5.1)
OpenELEC:~ # tvservice -a
