Xonar D2/PowerDVD 8 Blu-ray playback problem - Blu-ray Forum

HTPCNoob · 10-17-2008, 12:31 AM

Hello everyone and thanks in advance.

I have a Xonar D2 audio card and Power DVD 8 running my Blu-Ray experience, er lack there of. I am using a optical cable to run audio to my sound system which plays audio back in 5.1. Here is the issue. (I have tried mutiple setups as well.) I have sound in the opening scene which has Universal's logo. As soon as I get into Chaper 1, no sound. I look at the xonar audio center and no sound is being recognized. I have no clue what to do or what is going on. The exact same set-up I currently use works with some most blue-rays. The main thing I notice is that these discs have DTS. (I think) Any help is appreciated.

Regards,

do you have the drivers that asus has on their website installed?

select downloads on the left and select your os version... 32/64 etc...

try using some other media player to see if it works... is there a freeware bd softplayer? does your video card come with a hd vid player?

your saying you get sound from some bd that has dts but nada from dolby? or pcm?
