EDID Overrides to solve bitstreaming issues for ATI 5xxx's - Page 98

Thanks Tulli.

Selecting AVR as primary display didn't fix the issue.

When AVR is selected as primary, I can only see the Seven background without taskbar and even I switch to my secondary display (TV) via seven+shift+left/right arrow keys and if I check the "playback devices", i can only see "stereo" option.
I just ordered an Ati DVI to HDMI adapter to test again?
But I believe I should give up.

I had to change the HDMI input setting on my receiver - before that I also had stereo only - but I have a tv connected, and also, as advanced user, you probably tried this already.

Yes, i get HD audio over Ati HDMI > AVR > TV connection with the same AVR settings. In this case, i can not get 3D for sure since my AVR is 1.3.

Hi,

I own ONKYO Htx-22hdx + Onkyo SKS-22X linked via HDMi into ATI HD5670. During playback bluray with DTS-HD MA audio on PowerDVD 10 or 11 reciever shows only DTS 5.1

in audio settings of PowerDVD 11 I choose non-decoded high-definition audio to external deviced but when movie playing it switch to DD/DTS audio and that is what ONKYO show on the display, and there is no way how to switch to non-decoded high-definition audio.

my HD audio device and Catalyst are latest, everything works fine but not non-decoded HD audio

please hlep me, i am desperate

thank u, but not helping, still the same

No TrueHD and no DTS-HD MA

ive try a several catalysts

well i think its anything else, i try a lot of multimedia players such as TMT5, MPC HC (with ffdshow and settings), KMPlayer, PowerDVD 10,11 (reinstall too)

such as many drivers, but not successfuly

yes, all formats are supported (DTS Audio, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS-HD, Dolby TrueHD and Dolby Digital)

and sampling frequency up to 192

thx, but i am not able to play movie in DTS with MPC-HC, let alone the DTS-HD MA

maybe i am a noob

I am having issues with htpc >HDMI Splitter
HDMI Out 1 to Denon amp > hdmi to LG 60" 3D tv
HDMI Out 2 to LG 42" tv
HDMI Out 3 to Samsung 32" tv

I have used you one of your panasonic/denon avr override which gave me the ability to have 5.1 channel audio instead of stereo only, the problem is now with either the 42 or 32 inch tv's not playing live tv audio on some channels and mkv files.

Is there a possible work around for this? or would I need to buy hdmi av receivers for the other 2 TV's? and if I had to would there be an issue having 1 devon and 2 onkyo av receivers?

Denon Amp is 3D capable 1.4 HDMI
Cables are HDMI 1.4 but I have not upgraded to a 1.4 HDMI capable splitter yet (next on the list)

Attached are the EDIDs as requested

Hi Tulli,

Firstly, thankyou for all of the hard work you have obviously put in helping out noobs like myself. I was hoping you could help me out with a problem I'm having which I think could be related to EDID:

I just bought a brand new laptop which I want to use as a media center (xbmc) with my HD tv and 5.1 receiver.

Here is my setup:

HP ProBook 4525s -> HDMI -> Soniq 32" HDTV (cheapo brand) -> S/PDIF Coax -> Sony 5.1 receiver (DD/DTS capable)

The graphics card on the laptop is a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5470. The AMD website claims that its 7.1 capable but my laptop will only send stereo over HDMI. In the sound settings of Win7 64-bit the only option is stereo, no 5.1 option available. I have tried upgrading to the latest drivers from the AMD website but no difference.

Do you think this problem is related to EDID? Do you know how I'd go about fixing this issue?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi, I have system with a Monoprice 5312

http://www.monoprice.com/products/pr...seq=1&format=2

My PC connects to my AVR through an optical jack so no worries on the sound but I can't get either my EPSON projector or Panasonic Plasma to detect.

Without the switch they show up fine. I created the infs and installed the drivers and they showed up in the device manager, but when I put the Monoprice back in the middle they're gone and I don't see how to force the detection. What am I missing?

Thanks,

Hi Tulli,

Thanks for your fast response. I know I won't be able to pass 5.1 uncompressed audio over S/PDIF but thats ok with me, 5.1 DD and DTS are a must though.

DD/DTS aren't listed (see the attached screenshots). As you can see I tried installing the generic LCD - Sony AVR EDID override which didn't cause any video issues but also didn't solve the surround sound issue. I've since rolled back to the standard driver. I've also attatched the EDID for my Soniq LCD TV as a (.bin) and a (.inf) file. Could you please modify it so that DD/DTS 5.1 are enabled?

Many thanks!

Thanks Tulli!

I finally have it working after much fiddling.

FYI, it turns out my problem was twofold. First I installed the EDID override you provided and nothing changed. I then rolled back to the default monitor driver. Finally I decided to uninstall the driver for the "High Definition Audio Device" and then reinstall the latest drivers for the ATI Radeon Mobility HD 5470 graphics card from the AMD website. When I restarted the sound device had been renamed to "AMD High Definition Audio Device". Again, there was nothing under supported encoded formats. Lastly I installed your EDID override again and presto - DTS Audio and Dolby Digital appeared under encoded formats. I now have working 5.1 surround sound from XBMC. For your reference, I've attached some screenshots of the final config.

The whole thing is very frustrating. It's so crazy that manuafcturers can't supply you a brand new PC with the correct drivers installed. Also, there must be thousands of people wanting to pass DD/DTS through their TVs and onto the receivers. I have to use this config because my cheap receiver doesn't take HDMI. So the whole EDID system is poorly designed in my opinion.

Thanks again!

Still no go. I have computer monitor hooked up to the VGA port, is that screwing things up? I don't have any other way to see the screen when the HDMI displays aren't working. By the way, my video card is a Radeon HD 4350.

One other question. Are people using the DVI ports on their video cards with an adapter or do they use the HDMI port on the video card and does it make any difference?

Thanks,
-Orson

I'm feeling good about this thread..and slightly mind blown that I've never seen it before.

So I'm curious if I qualify for an override or if this problem can be completely eliminated by the Gefen Detective:

I have an MSI E-350 AMD APU with HDMI going to 1 of the 2 HDMI IN ports of my Onkyo TX-SR605 receiver. I also have HDMI connected to the HDMI out port of the SR605 connected to 1 of 4 HDMI in connections on my Pioneer Kuro PDP-5080 tv. I have NEVER, in Win 7 nor Openelec linux distro, gotten HDMI to work....with one exception.

If I play a movie on XBMC and change the input on my Kuro TV to one of the 3 empty HDMI slots the video will go blank (duh!) and I will hear HDMI audio playing. If I switch back to the appropriate TV input both audio & video will be dead.

It's been a gigantic nightmare, and I can't even provide the number of days I've lost to trying dozens and dozens of solutions off the net.

Sorry, my original post accidentally says I've never gotten HDMI to work.

What I meant to say is, I've never had HDMI AUDIO work on the HTPC.

My AT&T cable box, X360, Roku Player, and PS3 at one time have all worked flawlessly on this receiver and that includes HDMI audio. It's only this AMD HTPC that has issues.
