I have a feeling this has been debated until blue in the face, but I wanted to see if any progress has been made (assuming I am still not the only one with this problem) regarding missing audio channels in some files.
In particular, I see this problem happen with random .MOV file movie trailers downloaded from the Apple Quicktime Trailers site.
On my NVidia Mac Mini (all latest updates) connected via Mini-Out for audio (HDMI for video), many trailers play fine, but some seem to confuse XBMC with the central voice track (you don't hear the main audio).
This only happens in XBMC, but not when you play it in Quicktime, which tells me this must be something fixable in XBMC if I know the trick.
A recent example of a video that does this is the HD version of the trailer for "Paul":
http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/universal/paul/
When downloaded, saved to the Mac, and played with XBMC.
Can anyone duplicate? Is there a fix? I'm using Cinema Experience so it's annoying when a random trailer is pulled with no audio from my collection.
Thanks.
