I spent some time organizing and getting MC setup the way I wanted this past weekend.

I have 2 questions here that I am trying to figure out.   With audio out I want all audio to just passthrough just as it was recorded and let my AVR do the processing.   What I have noticed is this, when using my Zidoo or ATV with the same movie and I set the AVR to the same volume that the sound that is coming from JRiver is really quiet and low compared to other streaming devices.  Granted I know the ATV doesn't do bit streaming but the Zidoo does and the result is the same with it.  In audio settings I have tried my NVidia wasapi and nvidia default neither makes a difference and I do have bitstreaming selected.  What should I be using?

The 2nd issue that I am finding is when I start a movie with JRiver in the very beginning the audio is in sync find but the longer the movie plays the more out of sync the audio gets which makes it hard to offset this with the AVR.  Does anyone know why it does this and how I can fix it?

Is MC directly connected to the AVR?  HDMI, USB?

MC has several volume settings.  Click on the volume icon in the upper left corner to see them. 

If you're controlling volume with another device, set MC to full volume. 

Can you be more specific about your setup?

Hey Jim,

The HTPC is connected directly to my Sony AVR with a HDMI cable.  Under Tools>Options>Audio the volume is set to "System Volume" and under that Max volume 100 and startup volume -1.   The volume at the top left is 100% and as for the Audio device currently it is set to Sony - Nvidia HD Audio (WASAPI) and bitstreaming is set to yes(HDMI)

I am using Madvr in JRiver  and from my Sony there is a HDMI cable to my JVC Projector.

Let me know if you need more info and thank you for your time and help.

Also I am not sure how this posted under third party.   Can we move it to the correct locaion?

Try setting audio volume to Internal.  Check the Windows mixer volumes.  One may be set down.

But if you're using bitstreaming, everything should be processed by the AVR.  Would be worth trying without.

You mentioned audio drifting.  If you're using bitstreaming, JRiver isn't involved.  Otherwise, take a look at VideoClock on the wiki.
