Default DD or DTS with WinDVD 7

WinDVD 7 uses different registry settings to output SPDIF, here are the settings...

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\InterVideo\Common\Audio Dec\MediaPortal]
"AUDIOCHAN"=dword:00000007
"AUDIO"=dword:00000006

I'm a newbie at this, as i dont have those parameters in my registry... how i insert them? do i have to write AUDIOCHAN within the "" or without?
(i tried both but nothing worked)

Thanks.

Default

click: edit -> new -> DWORD
the name should be without ""
then right-click on the name and click "change" in the context-menu
just enter 6 or 7 because the registry-tool places the null's by itself.
the value must be set to hexadezimal!
===
im menü wähle "Bearbeiten -> Neu -> DWORD-Wert"
den namen schreibst du ohne die anführungszeichen
dann klickst du mit rechter maustaste auf den namen und wählst "Ändern"
du brauchst dann nur die 6 oder die 7 eingeben. die nullen kommen automatisch (wähle aber "Hexadezimal"!)

Why should one use another audio codec as the MPEG/AC3/DTS/... ?

Less CPU usage generally and common codecs should be used for Video & Audio.

Using timeshift and watching one of these channels like "pro7" which switch between Stereo and Dolby Digital within their AC3-Stream results in strange issues..

with WinDVD7 you get enormous reverb and silent voices after a DD movies begins - with Mpeg/AC3/... filter everything works ok.
