Thanks, OP updated!
psxstudio Wrote:wow... so many problems with Dharma running on Revo. Dang! Glad I stayed with old XBMCFreak v.11 (perhaps 12...forgot, it's been a long time) on my Revo R3610. Everything is working great so I put off the upgrade. Although, in near future when I upgrade my receiver w/ HDMI (still using the old one w/o HDMI) I'll have to upgrade. Not looking forward to it though. =[
myrison Wrote:@Skeeto -> No, I have XBMC Live Dharma 4 on two different systems and don't have that problem on either. So I'm no help on that one. Glad you got it working though!
@polaroo -> I doubt this exact guide will work for you as you'll need non-NVIDIA drivers. You should just try the normal XBMC Live distro and then work on making sure you have all the right drivers for your system installed. While I'm happy to -try- to help, you're probably better served looking for someone else who has set up the same card to see if they have more specific information for you.

myrison Wrote:Hey Joe, thanks for posting. I haven't gone to RC2 yet, but just to clarify, are you saying that in previous updates, you didn't have any problems with screwed up channel mappings, but in RC2, you did?
Thus far, I've been able to get them mapped correctly in each beta release using the files in the OP.
Thanks.
myrison Wrote:Jonect - the problem I've had on every version has been that if I chose 7.1 in the audio settings, multichannel PCM audio is completely random and just plain doesn't work. I've opened a bug report on it, but thus far, it hasn't gotten any traction. Do you have 7.1 working 100% now? That'd be very good news if so. If you think it's working, would you mind testing the sample file in that report and let me know if it works when you have your audio output set to 7.1?
Thanks!

reboot for good measure

myrison Wrote:The majority of the confusion with speaker-test (in my understanding) comes from the fact that the test itself is incorrectly referring to the side & rear channels (it calls sides rears and vice-versa) so you have to be very careful when using speaker-test's output.
...
If you can play that sample file with XBMC set to output 7.1 and get dialog out of the center channel every time, then definitely let me know. If that turns out to be the case, I'll try a non-XBMCfreak install and see if that has different results.
Thanks for your help with this. Having two people test with exactly the same system definitely helps rule out a lot of variables.
