[QUOTE="longjohn119, post: 1040090, member: 107900"] If you mean bitstreaming then you should say bit streaming NOT passthrough This is why MediaPortal is so confusing to mo0st people, everyone including the people at MediaPortal use different terminology than the property and setup pages use The difference between a Master and a Journeyman is attention to detail, something that's missing in the software world today especially when it comes to documentation. Openj Sourse is especially frustrating because most documentation consists of **opinions** on a message board and most of them are wrong so you send hours fixing a problem that wouldn't take 5 minutes with good documentation Like right now for me I'm likely to spend 2-3 hours trying to figure out why this supposedly best thing since sliced bread the Mediaportal Audio Renderer just doesn't work despite having the setting exactly like the tutorial that doesn't include (as usual) a clue on what to do when it doesn't work Frankly the ONLY reason I don't go back to MCE 7 is it doesn't have any real streaming to my other devices but other than that it just works .... I'll take something that works right over Eye Candy any day [/QUOTE]
