Playing an audio file with Dolby sound works fine in Windows, playing through MediaPortal 2 I can only get stereo sound.

    You can switch audio streams from OSD or player config dialog (info key), if a video contains multiple audio streams.
    Then there is a setting (settings - players - video player) to prefer multichannel streams.
    Finally the LAV audio decoder must be configured to pass through AC3 streams. This is done in the LAV codec settings (can be accessed from Windows start menu)

    Well, there is nothing wrong in the log. I have personaly tested the bitstreaming after DVD resume, and I can confirm that the LAV audiodecoder shows status 'bistreaming' on the output. What is your LAV status?

    It should also work with the LAV codec. There was a discussion about it here. The cyberlink app should not open, if you start a DVD playback in MP2. Perhaps you mean the cyberlink app starts, if you enter a DVD into the slot. To avoid this you'll have to deactivate autoplay in the windows settings. Open Windows Settings Select...
