With AC3 filter is possible to send an analog PL (or PLII) signal to the amplifier.However the problem could come from this: in the latest svns I saw there is a mpv and mpa codec that are set as default codec. I don't know why, mpa codec overrides mediaportal settings: even if you set ac3 filter as the audio filter for movies, mediaportal uses mpa filter.I noticed it with ac3 avi files. I use spdif for audio connection, but .avi with ac3 audiotrack played only in stereo (no ac3 stream passed through spdif). With older svn ac3 filter ran smoothly. I disabled mpa filter and then ac3 stream was back. So ac3filter too.Now I setup mpa filter for spdif pass-through for dts and ac3, so there's no problem. But MJGraf could be experiencing this problem: while he setup correctly ac3filter, mediaportal is not using it.Try this: play the video with windows media player, outside MP. Take a look at proprieties and wich filter is in use. If it say "MPA", remove the MPA codec and re-install ac3 filter. Then retry with mediaplayer (and than mediaportal). Remeber to do this every time you install a svn, as setup.bat re-register mpa codec.F.p.s. I tried to change the priority of mpa filter and ac3 filter, but it's useless. MPA replaces everything.p.p.s. I just saw this on latest svn log "On 16/05/2006 [16:19:42] rtv added the following change: fixed: MPA decoder settings were not saved to registry correctly ". I have not tried, but this could solve the issue

p.s. I tried to change the priority of mpa filter and ac3 filter, but it's useless. MPA replaces everything.
