No AC3 passthru on nVidia Geforce 6150 SPDIF

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I've got an MSI K9NGM2-FID motherboard, with a GeForce 6150 chip set.  I've been trying to get mplayer to pass AC3 audio thru the SPDIF port, without success.  Fedora Core 5, alsa 1.0.11rc2.  I downloaded and built ALSA 1.0.13, but it was no different.

Here's what happens.
mplayer -v -ao alsa -afm hwac3 -monitoraspect 16:9 -dvd-device /dev/cdrom dvd://1

I get a nice picture, but no sound.

The log from mplayer says:

Trying to force audio codec driver family hwac3...

Could not open/initialize audio device -> no sound.

Okay, my /dev/snd directory contains pcmC0D0c, pcmC0D0p, pcmC0D1c, and pcmC0D2p.  It seems like something's missing.
