[QUOTE="Lotsofjazz, post: 253853, member: 64243"] HTPC is THE route for Audiophiles to play digital music and video's perfectly! Why? because AC3, DTS and DD 5.1 digital audiostreams can be send UNTOUCHED bit for bit to the Audiophiles D/A converter and amplifier, if you have a soundcard with digital output (S/PDIF). You need to set the codecs to send audio streams to the SPDIF, or set AC3/DTS/Mpeg Audio to SPDIF Passthrough, this makes sure no conversion takes place in your PC I have it like this and I am very satisfied with the results. BTW, it has just little to do with Mediaportal itself, you just have to make sure the codecs Mediaportal uses are set correctly. Any Media center PC should be able to work like this. Lots [/QUOTE]
