[QUOTE="d-fader, post: 231357, member: 25116"] Hi people, I recently bought my first AMP (Yamaha X-V461) and I'm trying to get a DVD played with DTS sound through MediPortal. I am using an S/PDIF connection (on-board Ac '97) and when I start PowerDVD and select 'Use SPDIF' in the 'Speaker Environment' groupbox at the Audio tab in the configuration Window of PowerDVD, DTS is working. Now I want to play DVD's with MediaPortal (duh) and I can't seem to get it to work. It just uses STEREO (at least my amp. shows only two speakers (left and right) in stead of 6). I checked the configuration in MediaPortal and I'm getting confused. There is an 'Audio renderer' and 'Audio codec' field and I can select all kinds of options, which don't mean anything to me :). At the renderer I e.g. see Cyberlink Audio renderer (PDVD7.x) and at the codec I have even more strange options: Cyberlink Audio Decoder, Cyberlink MPEG Muxer, Cyberlink Audio Decode (PDVD7.x), Cyberlink Audio Decoder (PDVD UPnP). I really don't understand what these options do and I can't seem to find anything (useful) on the internet about these options. I actually thought the sound didn't have to be decoded at all, since my amp. will do that, but I can't select 'None' or something, I really don't understand anything about it :) My question is fairly simple, how do I get DTS output while playing DVD (or video's ftm) in MediaPortal? It's probably an RTFM issue, but if someone can show me the M I need to RTF then I would be very grateful :P Thanks!
