I have now update the LAV
Now I can hear the voice anyway if the sound is in AC3 but when I try with DTS I don't hear anything.
When I did play with PowerDVD and pick SPDIF OUT I hear sound and the recever find that I have "Dolby Digital D" and that is true.
The movie have both DTS and DD

A little update here.

After a while I have got MPC-HC to work with DTS and DD.
That I did I change the filter of audio to "CyberLink PowerDVD Audio Decoder (twinhan)" and inside that I did pick "USE SPDIF" in "Speaker Environment" and now my receiver show i the display DTS or DD.

The problem is that I can't pick that in Mediaplayer config, is not in the list in "AAC Audio Decoder" only in "MPEG /AC3 Audio Decoder"

So I guess it have to send the signal SPDIF but I have no idea how?

ok, I can't do it now so I have to do that later

But what I can remember it is no SPDIF to select. I think I have now "Default DirectSound Device: AMD HD Audio rear output" but I'm not sure.

    If you got: HTPC -> HDMI -> AV Receiver you should use HD HDMI Output and not S/PDIF...
    Have you installed any HDMI Audio driver??
    Thanks!

    Anyway: "MPEG /AC3 Audio Decoder" is the RIGHT tab. You can pick the Cyberlink audio decoder there and it should be use for Dolby & DTS.

    Hi
    Yes it is strange but I don't know why it is that.
    I have both S/PDIF and HDMI and I don't use S/PDIF.
    In BIOS I have select HDMI and not S/PDIF to use as Digital output

    Yes I have install everything and I can't ny error in my hardware list.


    Oh is it?, I was thinking it maybe was AAC, but when I play a Dolby or DTS track nothing show in the receive.
    I'm not close to my HTPC or receiver right now so if someone have more idea what to do I can try that later.

    A little update again :)

    I have now disable the soundcard (Realtek) and only use now AMD HDMI Drivers.
    MPC-HC can still find the DTS track so everything is fine if I want to use that player.

    In windows 7 it is more easy to active HDMI but not in Windows XP
    I can't run windows 7 because I have some old hardware that have no support for windows 7
