Synopsis:: -

I have been runnning MP for some time now and it works really well since I reinstalled my system with English XP Pro instead of Swedish. It seems to be more stable now.

I have found others that also has problems with NO sound on Discovery and Eurosport when using embedded codecs (MPA/MPV, Dscaler).
For example in thread:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/showthread.php?t=10258

I also have problems with the automatic change of TV-proportions when changing between 4:3 and 16:9 shows with those codecs. Have seen others with this issue earlier but I cant seem to find those threads at the moment.

The only way to get it all to work for me (audio on all channels and automatic Aspect Ratio change) is to use the CyberLink Video/SP Decoder and CyberLink Audio Decoder that came with Power DVD 6. I am not keen on installing more application than necessary on my system. As of now I am running a "long trial"-version of PowerDVD 6.

Has anyone got any ideas why it is not working on my system with embedded codecs?
Is audio active on discovery/eurosport and automatic resize working for you all with native codecs?

    I think that Discovery and Eurosport on the Boxer "network" are broadcasted using AC3 audio.

    (I use the Nvidia PureVideo codec and everything works ok)

    I got the same issue. If I use MPA, no sound but if I use Intervideo all is ok.
    I use the latest SVN version. Clearly a bug
