Is anyone testing AE with a Yamaha receiver? I tested my system as per the thread on NVNews and got a positive result. I would be very interested to see if any other Yamaha users have had success.
Here's a my debug.log
Checking ALSA hw_params shows something happening but the AVR reports 'No Signal'
hw_params:
When playing video with AE, normal DTS/DD passthrough is working fine, but DTS-HD and TrueHD produce no sound.
Sometimes I get smooth video playback and sometimes I get choppy video playback. When I do get choppy playback, I get a lot underrun errors. I'm wondering if the errors are due to the ALSA buffer being too small? I have set it at a minimum of 2048 in "/proc/asound/card0/pcm3p/sub0/prealloc", which works for my 24 bit 192kHz & 176khz 6ch audio, but probably not enough for 8ch.
I'm using a an Atom 525 based HTPC with an ION2 (GT218) GPU, Ubuntu 10.04, kernel 2.6.38-10-generic, latest ALSA 1.0.24 from git.
Thanks and hope I'm not making noise in this thread.
