Is this lossy non-downsampled output better than the lossless downsampled output? Which was frustrating.Īnalogue: This can be done through either a 5.1 or 7.1 analogue setup, and apparently outputs the DD+/DTS-HD in a lossy format.
#Cyberlink powerdvd 18 spdif no output install
My problem is that I can't get PowerDVD to output to SPDIF, and when I tried downloading the TotalMedia Theatre demo from ArcSoft, it failed during install (couldn't find a file?). In either case, if you can get the player to output via SPDIF, this is what is occuring. SPDIF: Apparently, either a DD5.1/DTS track is included with the source, and this is what is passed through SPDIF, or, the DD+/DTS-HD track is a lossless downsampled to DD5.1/DTS. there are two options however, and I'd like opinions on which is better. There is no possible way to output DD+ or DTS-HD from a software player. I found out a few things - people can confirm. The same PowerDVD works welll under XP SP2. PowerDVD turn off the spdif output during playback if I use under Vista. I would really appreciated some help on this, thanks all! I want to play Blu-Ray and HD-DVD discs, so I really need PowerDVD to work. I've e-mailed Cyberlink support but they are s-l-o-w, and not helpful. I've done screengrabs of all relevant settings/info, they are here: I have disabled the onboard Relatek audio, and disabled the High-Def Audio on the graphics card. Graphics: ASUS Radeon HD 3450 (Catalyst 8.2)Īudio: Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Audio (latest drivers) My suspicion is a compatibility issue between PowerDVD and my X-Fi Sound Blaster drivers, but who knows? Here's my system spec: "2 Speaker", "6 speaker") I just get stereo sound. One major problem: PowerDVD outputs NO sound whatsoever when I change the audio settings to "S/PDIF". Applications such as Windows Media Player are working great, sending the correct 48kHz 2ch 16bit PCM to S/PDIF out as my amp displays "Dolby Digital" or "DTS" depending on the source. I hope someone can save my sanity and help me with this problem! I have my new HTPC connected to my amp with Coax S/PDIF.
