[QUOTE="Pat Clark, post: 1003403, member: 123421"] The wiki for MPAR says "[FONT=Open Sans]The MediaPortal [/FONT][FONT=Open Sans]Audio[/FONT][FONT=Open Sans] [/FONT][FONT=Open Sans]Renderer[/FONT][FONT=Open Sans] is able to encode the [/FONT][FONT=Open Sans]audio[/FONT][FONT=Open Sans] again to AC3 . . .[/FONT]" [SIZE=3]Is that true?

[ATTACH=full]130809[/ATTACH] I've tried everything I can think of to get more than 2 channels listed. Drivers are latest. So I do not use MPAR, and do use LAV's bitstreaming, which works fine for audio. But when playing 23.976 material, I get tearing near the bottom of the screen.
