Hello Wei ! Thanks for replying. I tested it with speaker-test and xbmc babylon. Both had problems with channel mapping. I used this command: speaker-test -Dhdmi -c6 or speaker-test -Dhdmi -c8 alternatively you could try speaker-test -Dhw:0,3 -c6 I had to rund Xorg first and have the command from an xterm, becasue from a normal terminal it would not work. I think that is normal as a limitation of hdmi. What about the support for 24bits 192khz sound ? speaker-test -Dhdmi -c6 -r192000 does not work. Thanks for working on this. 2009/6/3 Wei Ni <wni@xxxxxxxxxx> > Hi, Marek and Alan > I'm a Nvidia engineer and develop this patch file. > > I used mplayer to test.
