This is the frontend-log when playing a video with DTS. As you can see,
DTS is recognized as Codec, but my Receiver shows up die Dolby Logo, and
not the DTS Logo, which normally appears. Audio settings now are:

Device:     ALSA:hdmi:CARD=NVidia,DEV=0
Dolby:      checked
DTS:        checked
Speaker:    5.1

Advanced audio settings untouched and internal volume control is disabled


Current Version now is: trunk (nk27322)

Here is the log:

At least the sound works now, but any ideas, why i dont get DTS? I had
this sometimes with 0.23, that when playing audio with DTS, receiver
shows DD. This got fixed for me with 0.24, but in this version it seems
to be there again. Any further ideas?
