I'm having problems with my SPDIF connection to my receiver. When I watch DVDs, archived videos, and rarely Live and Recorded TV in Myth, I get a lot of random audio drop outs. I can see my receiver switching from DD5.1 to DPLII if the signal drops for longer than a few seconds.
I'm running Mythbuntu 8.04. I'm using a Biostar TN720 mobo w/ AMD 5000+, a SPDIF header adapter mounted to an expansion slot cover, and a Blue Jeans Cable 6' 75 ohm coax digital audio cable connected to a Pioneer VSX-54TX receiver. I don't think the SPDIF connection is bad, because if I swtich xine to use stereo over SPDIF instead of AC3 DD5.1, audio is clean.
Any help, tips, or troubleshooting rsources would be greatly appreciated. This is driving me nuts, and I won't cancel DirecTV until the audio glitches are cleaned up.
Thanks,
Jim
