[QUOTE="Cook, post: 690747, member: 108931"] Hi Team! I need help/info on making my final codec choices before installing them. Here is my basic layout: 1) Windows 7 (64 bit) 2) i5-760 CPU 3) nVidia gt-430 (HDMI with HD-audio bitstreaming capability) 4) TMT3 installed, but no other additional codecs or codec packs 5) PC is hooked up via HDMI to an Onkyo HT-RC260 receiver (with all the HD-audio decoding capabilities) I have done TONS of reading about bitstreaming, and it has been helpful. I have reviewed the guide for "bitstreaming from Xonar" and the SAF 4.0/5.0 threads But before I start the work, I wanted to get the latest input from the group. I want to bitstream everything DD, DTS, DTS-HD Master, TrueHD, etc. from within Media Portal. As of now, I am having MePo pull up TMT3 for my M2TS and MKV files. (which TMT3 currently down-mixes from AC3 to 2-channel PCM on me :growl:). I have not tried anything with HD-audio yet. So here are my questions: 1) Since I have the gt-430, are there any new/different things to consider? 2) Do I really need SAF, or would the latest ffdshow be enough (with DXVA hardware support)? 3) For the Audio Renderer, should I just register the one for TMT3? Why isn't the renderer shown in the SAF guides? 4) What is the best way to back up my blu-rays (M2TS files, MKV files, full folder structure) with these goals in mind? Any help you could provide would be helpful and appreciated. I want to have my plan totally formulated before regretting codecs and having a nightmare uninstalling them. Thanks! Cook :thx: [/QUOTE]
