Good to hear that the issue is solved. I just keep wondering why many of the pro audio HW devices have so bad drivers that they wont support even driven mode (which is more glitch resistant as it gets the buffer filling requests directly from the audio HW, not by the renderer's polling - this applies to all applications, not just MPAR).

If you are having trouble due to lack of options in lav audio filter, then ffdshow audio allows more customization with regards to mixing and output as well as supporting a profile based system. It is more complicated to set up. I think the first step is for you to list what audio formats your audio receiver can handle over spdif by...

It's a tick box under 'Codecs for HW decoding' (see your image in the first post) - when it is not ticked LAV will use software decoding for that video type.

yeah use YbCbCr at 24hz BTW - the tv won't always detect changes sometimes you have to unplug and replug or restart pc+tv. I'm guess you have to trigger a new "EDID handshake"

symbolic link might be a solution for you then (if you don't want to edit database) just select the virtual mp4 file with my videos for external STB playback, while you still have full database support for the original .ts which will also use the internal player. use mklink to auto create symlinks after each recording with a...

I have done some further tests here and, if you start a movie and make sure you press straight on the remote and that it says straight and not 5 channel stereo enhanced, now the surround should be working for movies as you have seen already. Next go and play a tv channel and hit the sur. decode so it says pro logic ||. Now when you go...

Hi there, Am I correct in thinking that this thread is applicable to something I started here (#25 onwards)? https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/beginners-guide-to-mediaportal-codecs-and-what-to-use.118945/page-3 Reading that last post, does upmixing in Mediaportal only work if you choose 6.1 rather than 5.1?

Thanks for the Reply Gurabli, My solution is to move away from RAR files. They are hard to deal with when it comes to streaming, organizing and playing. It is a shame, because I don't want to be a leach on the torrent community, but I don't have the space to have 2 media libraries. One for RAR seeding files and one for streaming...

I have the same issue as you, with Yamaha rx-v765 and LG PK760 TV. HDMI out from an i7 3770k PC. When i set the Audio out to TV or TV+AMP i got only Dolby Digital, but when i set it to AMP i got Dolby Digital, DTS Audio and Dolby Digital Plus. Only if i turn the TV off then it shows TrueHD and DTS-MA. I can't solve this problem.
