Codecs, External Players (22 Viewers)

Post problems with Codecs or External Players here!
I've found ffdshow does a better job upmixing to 5.1 than my 3-year-old Sony receiver, interestingly enough. So my advice is to experiment with 2.0, etc audio to find out whether you prefer letting ffdshow or your receiver do it.

MP1 MP2 No 5.1 DE
so u have 6 analog cables (probably in 3 cords) running from the pc to the audio receiver? It would pay to check that SAF is not on SPDIF mode, which might result in only stereo output, other than that not sure because I use a digital setup.

Greetings :) I've recently researched a way to improve the music reproduction quality from my HTPC and would probably go for an external DAC using the M/B SPDIF out adapter (Optical probably). I wonder how could I pass-through the FRONT channels digitally through the SPDIF to the external DAC (preferably at least 24bit/96MHz )...

Hello Folks, while CPU usage is very low while watching non-hd TV, it climbs to 99% on HD channels (ZDF HD for example). I take this as an indicator that DXVA is not working. I update to latest SAF 5.0.0 beta but the situation has not changed. Unfortunately I don't know much about codecs and filters so I am a little stuck here...

Indeed. For MediaPortal I currently only use CoreAVC (for h.264 obviously) and ffdshow (for the rest). ffdshow seems to work great in RC3 for all cases (also LiveTV mpeg2 decoding + deinterlacing).
