FFDShow: How to configure for switching HDMI/SPDIF easily? (1 Viewer)

[trepamuros]

Hi all,

I'm using MP 1.1.0 RC1 + SAF 4.00RC2 with SPDIF passtrough and I'm happy with it.

Now I want to get HDMI audio or SPDIF passtrough depending of my desires, simply by switching Audio Device within MediaPortal. Both, HDMI-Audio and SPDIF are activated on Vista, being SPDIF as default device.

Better explained, I want to get stereo HDMI or DTS/AC3 SPDIF, simply by changing the audio device on MP, if possible.

I tried the following:
Doing nothing more than changing device on MP -> AC3/DTS videos do not play via HDMI.
FFDShow Audio Decoder - Output - untick DTS and AC3 passtrough -> HDMI audio works, but only get stereo via SPDIF.
FFDShow Audio Decoder - activate Mixer - 2 channels -> HDMI audio works but video is choppy. Only stereo via SPDIF.
(same happens setting 5 channels or whatever other speakers mode I set)
Previous FFDShow settings together -> AC3/DTS videos do not play via HDMI.

Tried all of the above with/without adding FFDShow Audio Decoder to MP Postprocessing, same results.

Also tried all the above setting HDMI Audio as default device on Vista, same results.

Any ideas?

I'm interested in doing the same thing, I've not tried yet as I'm just setting everything else on RC1; what I was thinking that TV -> HDMI and moveies -> SPDIF (if I want)
