</div>You go into the setup -> general -> audio<br>
Select the digital audio output, check AC3 and DTS.<br>
<br>
Select 5.1 for audio speakers<br>
<br>
that's it<br></blockquote></div><br><br>That is how my settings are, yet it doesn't work, see screenshot at <a href="http://twitpic.com/5k3yle">http://twitpic.com/5k3yle</a><br><br>I get audio but it is somehow processed by mythtv, no passthrough. Most of my HDHomerun recordings have Dolby 5.1 audio, my Onkyo receiver used to light up the little red "Dolby" logo when I played them before the upgrade. It also lighted up a little "DTS" logo in the mkv videos that had it. It doesn't anymore, I just get plain old stereo :-(<br>
