Hi Terra,
I have tried your script for turn on my Yamaha V481 receiver and it worked with minor changing but it is not working for turning off my amp??
Could you please help me.
I have feeling that I am missing something there.
Please check the files attached.
Thanks,
Nabeel

S/PDIF will pass Dolby Digital and DTS, but none of the high-resolution audio formats on Blu-Ray (Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD High Resolution, and DTS-HD Master Audio). But, without a high-end receiver or amp and solid speaker setup, you won't hear much of a difference between them.

Actually some sound cards out there do a very good job at mixing your audio through their optical S/PDIF output.
See Dolby Digital Live, that makes optical output from those sound card the premium audio solution for your PC.
Obviously if you already have an A/V Receiver that does a good job at mixing your HDMI audio then Sound Cards...

Hi guys,
thanks for you answers - I have fixed it now - I was being rather dumb.:oops:
Having HDMI audio enabled via the NVIDIA driver DOES prevent PC volume control - but the NVIDIA driver DOES allow you to disable audio - thus re-enabling the analogue sound device and enabling volume control.
But I had tried disabling the...

Just found out that there is a Diamond card that might work perfect. It uses a cmedia chip, and there are some open source drivers that are suppose to make it work really good. Plus its only $30
here is a description of the open source drivers:

I think you can't do anything about it, except re-encode all your 44,1khz material to 48khz or the other way around through software.
Many people do this, because software makes a better job in resampling. Well, your soundcard does it on the fly, so what do you expect.....
For players like MPC to be able to switch the output-rate...

Had a quick look for info. on that driver and couldn't find any.
Who supplies the driver? Is it AMD/ATI or Realtek?
EDIT - OK, found it. It's Realtek. Will give it a go!
EDIT 2 - Tried it, still the same. Boot server, sound is fine, leave video playing, change channels on the TV, change back to PC, no sound.
EDIT 3 -...

How do I enable sound over the HDMI from the Gigabyte MA78G-DS3H motherboard?
Impressions:
First of all, the sound is much better than with the Pioneer I had to replace, surely because of the higher output specs. This might also be because of some processing to allow full surround feeling even at lower levels that I'm using. I had this on an older, non-HDMI Pioneer that I loved, and they called the setting...

If you want HD audio, and a more-than adequate GFX card, definitely go with the new ATI 5670 (i'm their new poster boy) and guess what? It's less than $100 for each manufacturer on newegg! Seriously, you can't go wrong with that deal...

It is worth noting that it won't decode Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD Master Audio, but it will pass through analog LPCM 7.1. LPCM is as good as if not better than the other formats, but isn't available on all releases (not sure of the number). In an ideal world it would be possible to buy a decoder for the other HD...

Hi,
I've just setup MP 1.12.0 as an alternative to WMC given Windows 10 no longer supports WMC.
I've got static as well when playing MKV files, the TV audio seems fine not having any problems with that. I've tried different combinations of settings, and all I can seem to achieve is static or no audio at all. HELP!

By the way, my card has a native hdmi port, no adapter needed. Just thought I'd point that out to anyone stumbling across this thread.

I don't use it due to the sound from my LCD being pretty terrible, but I have tried passthrough (using my Yamaha RX-V1065) before. Basically, from memory, the problem is that your TV can't decode it.
Unfortunately if you want to get the sound working in passthrough mode, you'll need to set ffdshow to transcode AC3 to something else.

I bought one of these a while back for $10, but just got around to actually installing it in a build (Pentium-4 MP client). Works fine.
Almost exactly like the old inexpensive ChainTech card. Windows Update has a driver for it, but use the enhanced Envy24 drivers for better control over optical SPDIF.

only problem with my current sound setup is that the amp im using was part of my old dvd player setup, so the cable running from the sound card to the amp/sub is a custom made (as the dvd player audio out socket was a weird shape) so wont fit any of the sound card outputs.
