Denon AVR issues - require configuration file wiki

[sagim]

hello,

Openelec have issues with Denon AVR over HDMI (AVR can't identify DTS or AC3).

I am looking for a audio configuration documentation, to try and locate this issue.

Thanks

what version of the denon?
I have a Denon AVR-1611

AVR-1311, working with windows 7, and not with openelec

Much depends on the motherboard and chipset audio
My motherboard is ASUS AT5ION-I / ALC887 - 8-Channel support DTS Surround / Nvidia GT 218
my configuration file: asound.conf

defaults.ctl.card 1
defaults.pcm.card 1
defaults.pcm.device 7

aplay -l

card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC887 Analog [ALC887 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC887 Digital [ALC887 Digital]
Subdevices: 1/1

or http://wiki.openelec.tv/index.php?title=...neric_ion2
all audio formats are correctly played (HDMI) - sound samples : http://openelec.tv/forum/68-audio/5146-t...io-support
AC3 detects as: Dolby Didital
DTS detects as: DTS
Dolby Digital TrueHD / AAC surround / etc ... detects as: multi-channel PCM
I do not know whether the name (identification) is important ?
if the sound is OK on my speakers 5.0 (KODA)+ Denon AVR-1611
Maybe someone else will say on this topic.');

Thank you.

While working in windows 7, my AVR-1311 (entry level AVR) work same as you wrote, at the bottom.

From some odd reason, while trying to do so through OPenelec, with the configuration same as yours (aplay -l looks the same, although it is xtreamer Ultra HTPC), the AVR do not identify the signal (I don't even sure that it seems it as digital)

Thanks
