[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1210424, member: 82144"] Do you understand that using WASAPI is almost the same as bit-streaming? MP passes the PCM to the PC audio output without modification. If we reduce the volume, the SNR (signal to noise ratio) of the signal received by the AVR will be reduced. You seem to assume that all PCM signals/streams have the same volume, but that's wrong. Volume completely depends on the source/stream. WASAPI is not doing anything wrong. Anyway, if you won't use WASAPI, what about ASIO? I never suggested using MPAR. I can't tell you why other people suggested it. From the start my recommendation has been to upmix on the PC... but it seems you refuse to accept that might be the only way to get [I]close[/I] to what you want. It isn't [I]exactly[/I] what you want, but it's better than some of the other options. I know what you want, and I've said over and over again: sometimes you have to accept a compromise. [B]Still waiting for the screenshot of your MPAR settings![/B] [/QUOTE]
