I have one nagging issue though: I have the PC connected to the TV via HDMI but I have an optical cable from the sound card to my Receiver, because I have no HDMI in on the Receiver. I cannot get ANY sound to play through the receiver in MP or Windows EXCEPT from the RealTek HD audio Center, that test produces perfect 5.1DD sound. I've been messing with the AC3Filter for a while now with absolutely no change. The sound always comes out of the TV. I was running MythTV on Ubuntu Linux before installing XP and MP due to ATI drivers sucking on Linux. On the Linux box though the sound worked perfect. So I have two questions.... 1. Does anybody have any trouble shooting ideas for this? 2. Is there a way to find out what audio a particular file is encoded in? If I knew this I could at least try to trouble shoot each type. (5.1, 2 stereo, DTS, whatever...) Sorry if this is in the wrong forum.... My brain is frazzled from 3 sleepless nights trying to get this thing completed and my living room cleaned up again. :wtf: [/QUOTE]
