I'm wondering why dts and aac sound coming from DVD is perfectly transmitted over the spdif port (the A/V receiver recognizes the format ans switches to dts/dolby mode, and -- much important -- I can hear the movie's sound); But if I try the same with a "normal" divx-file or try to play anything else, nothing comes out over the spdif port, only via the analog audio jacks I can hear something. The card is an onboard ac97 codec (via VT8237 based), driver is alsa, from kernel 2.6.15-gentoo-r1 I found in some forum the advise to use alsamixer and set the control "IE958 playback AC97-spsa" to 0, I did so, but it didn't help. Thanks in adavance for any suggestions. Greetings Alex -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
