Help with ffdshow audio settings (1 Viewer)

[FreeFrag]

Hello community,

Until recently I used AC3Filter which passed on AC3 and DTS streams to my receiver just fine, and when hooked up to my LCD by HDMI it worked just fine also (2.0 stereo). Ofcourse after I selected HDMI as audio source in Windows, but other than that I didn't have to do anything.

Now I am using ffdshow tryouts and the sound still works fine for VGA + SPDIF config but when I switch to HDMI I have to go into ffdshow config and disable pass-through, etc. If I don't go into config and re-configure I can't get anything to play inside MP. When trying to watch a movie it doesn't even start, but instead moves down to next file in list.

Is this how ffdshow works or am I missing a simple setting here?

Cheers

Thanks for the reply.
I installed the latest SAF where AC3 filter is included and now it works. Whenever I start the PC with projector and toslink connected I get DTS or Dolby Digital to the reciver. When I use the HDMI and my LCD I get 2.0 audio out. Without having to reconfigure the settings in FFDshow or AC3 filter.

So, right now I am a happy camper.
