MediaPortal Audio renderer - better video playback quality (4 Viewers)

[tourettes]

Is this a symptom which is related to what you guys are discussing? Is there anything I can do? e.g. do you need some logfiles and if yes which ones? Can you point me to some background info?

I am really not too lazy to read but simply - as said before - lost... can anybody, please, bring me back "on track".

Your issue is not related to the topic in this thread.

https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...fter-watching-live-tv-long-period-time-84392/ thread has some discussion, but no real solution.

My testing will continue until the end of next week

Hello tourettes,

thx for pointing me into the "right" direction... at least the other thread shows that other users seem to hava similar problems :-(

New revision is up. Hopefully there isn't any bigger new issues after this so we could move into the multichannel & AC3 re-encoding area.

• Audio render will not render the few last seconds of the audio (depending on the video container / muxing parameters used) - fixed in SVN, will be included in the next version
• FLAC audio in MKV could cause buffer underruns when time stretching is enabled
• Disabled audio clock fine tuning when refresh rate and source material doesn't match 1:1, 1:2 or 1:3 (even after possible speed up / slow down)

what about donations??? I'm going for holidays in couple of days, so I have to do it now

We have decided that the donations would be best to be handled thru the normal MP donations. So, if you feel like you would want to help the progress of the AC3 / multichannel you are welcome to make a small donation.

Ok. remember the 16 bit , 32 bit , float issue.

Sure, it will be done on the same time as multichannel by arion_p.

AW: MediaPortal Audio renderer - better video playback quality

Would it also be possible to integrate volume control with WASAPI-mode on?

Using the FFDShow audio decoder it should be possible to control the volume during the playback.

pps. Any recommendations what amplifier would do the job properly?

A good choice could be the Logitech Z-5500 Digital 5.1 Speaker System . On ebay you can buy it with 250€.

This only accepts SPDIF though doesn't it? (so no HD audio or LPCM via HDMI)

There is an Onkyo setup which is similar but has HDMI input ONKYO HTX22HDX
but I would be tempted to test on a real amp (as you are never sure how these integrated things actually work)

ONKYO TXSR308 is £220 and is probably the cheapest amp that supports HD audio and LPCM (as well as SPDIF) and would be enough for testing as you can see what inputs are being received etc. In real world use though you would need some speakers which obviously add to the cost
