Upscaling using BASS? (1 Viewer)

[niels37]

Hi There,

Just reading this post about spdif ( i know now much more ) BUT....and here it comes

I use SAF 5 fddshow as audio and video. My receiver ( amp) is connected with spdif optical ( from motherboard 890GX) . I get sound but not over my subwooofer. I know for sure the video avatar has 5.1 audio but still no subwoofer!

Do you happen to know what i am doing wrong?

What sound format your video have? AC3? DTS? PCM?
Open ffdshow audio configuration and check AC3/DTS bitstream
Only AC3/DTS can pass 5.1 over spdif, your amp should show Dolby Digital or DTS on display

Thx for your reply.

see answer on your questions below

What sound format your video have? AC3? DTS? PCM?
AC3 5.1 ACCORDING DVDMENU AVATAR AUDIOMENU . wITH WHAT PROGRAM CAN I ANALYZE VIDEO_TS AND .AVI FILES FOR AUDIO?

Open ffdshow audio configuration and check AC3/DTS bitstream
i DID THAT ALREADY EXCEPT DTS AS MY RECEIVER CAN'T COPE WITH DTS ( HAS TO BE REPLACED BUT I BOUGHT THIS HARWARE TO UPGRADE MY HTPC ALREADY)
Only AC3/DTS can pass 5.1 over spdif, your amp should show Dolby Digital or DTS on display
iT SHOWS AC3 ON DISPLAY SO I GUESS THAT EQUELL
mY RECEIVER IS A KENWOOD KR-V888D.

A bit dumb perhaps, i had to turn my sub on on my reveiver which i already done that ( i thought) . Turns out i had to acknowledge each speaker setup , after when i've done that my sub went on .
Thx for your replay Mikeyko!
