I did see your other post and it was no help, when I switch to analog it does work but it comes out of my pc speakers. I want it to output to my receiver with 5.1 setup. Switching from analog to digital doesnt work. My setup use to work fine but it hasnt been same since format.

Gentlemen, I have tested several different OS's, Linux, XP, Server 2003, all 32 bit versions, the one I am testing now is Vista 64 bit version, and that is the only OS I had a problem with, but I found a solution to the .mkv and .iso stutter problem, at least those where the two containers giving me a problem, with starting and freezing after 5 seconds. Somehow during one of the Automatic Updates by Microsoft, it enabled the HDMI. I disabled HDMI, and left the SPDIF enabled, and all works well.

Hopefully this will help someone else with a similar problem.

So I figured out my problem.

The digital audio plays fine when I select the spdif device as my default audio device for windows.

But before, the digital audio would automatically send to my digital device while my analog speakers were my default audio device.

Anyone know how to correct this? I would like for it to output to the digital outpout on default without me having to switch everytime I want to watch a movie.

I had this problem with the stock 8.1 build, but installing Kricker's 16863 build took care of the issue. I hope this helps!
