Hi All.
I've done some more research and here are the results. My setup is listed below and in the top of the log file. To recap - still no AC3 on dharma RC1 even though I get AC3 in all other apps as well as XBMC Camelot. I am able to play DTS in all of the applications/players I have tested.
  • alexrose1uk - I tried loading the latest realtek driver (2.49) but to no effect. I'm running ATI catalyst 10.11 drivers which are the latest.
  • I loaded up the DX version of XBMC (XBMCSetup-Rev33619-dx.exe, and MPC-Standalone Filters.1.4.2499.0.x86.zip) and also tried using the DSPlayer. I can only get PCM out of that when trying to play AC3, which means it's not bitstreaming. The DVDPlayer in that version doesn't play sound at all. I followed the guide here: http://www.mediasmartserver.net/2010/06/...-dsplayer/
  • I installed MPC HC (MPC-HomeCinema.1.4.2499.0.x86.exe) and followed the guide here: http://www.mediasmartserver.net/2010/02/...pc-part-i/ I was sucessfully able to play anything I could think of - AC3, DTS, DTS-MA, Dolby TrueHD. I used this ffdshow version (ffdshow_rev3562_20100907.exe). It seems anytime I can fit ffdshow in as a filter it tends to work - although I think DSPlayer uses it to decode AC3 so I am not sure?
  • Graphstudio will output AC3 using ffdshow, as well as WMP.


I have posted the log file generated from trying to play a movie called 21 in Dharma RC1. The movie has been backed up to HDD, and I play it by selecting the VIDEO_TS.IFO file. You can find the log file at http://pastebin.com/LyS0TX11 From the logs it seems that XBMC loads ffmpeg so I am not sure why this issue is occuring. I've tried all of the settings available in the audio setup for dharma, including trying WASAPI and Directsound devices but to no avail.

Any thoughts on what my next steps should be?

Cheers.

Other System Info:
Win7 HTPC connected using HDMI 1.3a to an Emotiva UMC-1 processor
ATI 5750 video card running catalyst 10.11 drivers
WASAPI ATI High Definition Audio Device (selected in audio setup)
