[QUOTE="Roger, post: 22477, member: 15255"] This is not a Mediaportal issue but since I have read almost every post there is in here about the subject and 'cause you all have the knowledge I'll make a shot. My final goal with this is to use Mediaportal so I'm not that off.. :wink: The problem is that I, in some situations, can't get S/PDIF to work. Sounds familiar huh!?.. Hardware: HP NC8000 [url]http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/us/en/sm/WF06a/321957-64295-89315-321838-f1-364182.html[/url] Graphic: Radeon Mobility 9600, driverversion 6.14.10.6436 Sound: (Analog devices) SoundMAX, driverversion 5.12.1.5250 WLAN: Gigabyte GN-WMAG These hardware and drivers are the only thing installed upon my Windows XP Pro SP2 installation. Once the sounddriver is installed I check that the AC3- and PCM S/PDIF option is activated in the volumecontrol in systray. I then install PowerDVD 6 and start it up. Configures it to use S/PDIF and verifies the output with a Dolbydigital-trailer (.VOB). The amplifier (NAD T743) recognizes the digital stream and switches automatically from stereo to Dolby Digital. I then fire up Graphedit and opens the stream. A graph is shown that cyberlink codecs are used to both encode audio and video.
