[QUOTE="jet70, post: 679899, member: 89373"] Help! I am trying to get SPDIF passthrough working with my external processor and am not having any luck with DTS although 5.1 is fine. Initially I tried getting this to work with the default device driver installed by Windows 7. In the Windows sound utility - see settings.jpg I try and test DTS Audio and Dolby Digital Audio, Dolby Digital Audio (DDA) via SPDIF provides a solid lock to my processor. DTS is detected but it does not provide a solid lock and is flaky. In MePO using FFDShow or AC3Filter using SPDIF passthrough, DDA is perfect, but DTS is flaky and is weak and unreliable, goes silent when seeking and general is very 'hit and miss'. I then thought that this might be because the driver is not Realtek (the sounchip on the Motherbaord) so I downloaded the newest Realtek HD drivers and installed. Again, I did the test in the Windows sound utility. Again, DDA locks perfectly and DTS is detected by the processor but is weak and does not lock. If I try FFDShow or AC3Filter in MePo, I get no signal whatsoever passed to the processor. Ironically, the Realtek driver is worse than the Microsoft! Has anyone got any bright ideas. I can only think I have not quite got the right driver or its Windows 7. This is not a MePo issue since it seems to be flaky when testing raw in Windows. Any help would be really appreciated.
