Thanks! This info was helpful. Thinks now seem to be working as expected using the following settings: audio.device.alsa_default_device:plug:iec958 audio.device.alsa_front_device:plug:iec958 audio.device.alsa_passthrough_device:iec958:AES0=0x06 audio.device.alsa_surround40_device:iec958:AES0=0x06 audio.device.alsa_surround51_device:iec958:AES0=0x06 _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
