[QUOTE="JSorrentino, post: 603835, member: 82971"] [b]Re: SAF v5.00 experimental (based on FFDShow DXVA decoder)[/b] OK. First, (as I'm not sure on the specs of that card) as far as I know only the newer ATI (58xxx/59xxx) series have proper HDMI sound integrated into the video card with an on-board sound processor. Older HDMI cards (if they support HDMI out) have the ability to "pass-through" via an audio passthrough cable that feeds your audio from whatever card you have to the video card. This may be your case and you are not hooking up this connection. If you are assuming that by plugging in an HDMI cable, that the audio will simply "work" - will result in this issue. Do some spec checking on your card. If it supports true HDMI with audio then there is another issue, if not that audio is not being generated in the video card and thus - needs a way to be added to the HDMI stream. A newer card like the ATI Radeon 5870 has integrated a nice audio solution to the video card and you do not need this "feeder" cable to pass audio to the video card for the video card to add to the HDMI signal going to the receiver. Also, make sure in MePo config you are using "default output device" for sound, and in Windows control panel, you set the default device to the proper audio device. Good Luck, hope this helps!
