Need advice on HDMI to PCM decoding

<< < (3/7) > >>

jctcom:
Maybe I am not understanding you all the way?

Is your source for all your music going to be the PC?

If yes then why do you need an HDMI Input on the PC?  Shouldn't you rather be looking for 2 Outputs?

That would be very easy to find.  There are even many motherboards with it built in.

No, the source is exclusively the Dune media player.

What I need is a splitter than can output video on one output, and decoded audio on the other.

The Dune feeds the splitter, that feeds the Video Processor and the Goldmund audio processor, which only works well with PCM for some ridiculous reasons.

The Goldmund does work well with streams from a regular Blu-ray player, but not with a Dune. On the other hand, it sounds better than any other high end processor, so there is that.

jctcom:
Not sure what exactly you are trying to achieve?  Are you trying to play music to the Dune? From the Dune?

Either way I think JRiver should be able to see it on the network and either control it, Play music to it or both.

This thread might be a start as to what you are looking for:

They never actually posted their final findings but I still think that is a better direction?

I am trying to build an HDMI splitter than take its input from a Dune media player playing MKV files, outputs on its first HDMI output the untouched video, and on its second HDMI the decoded to PCM audio.

It will be a passive device, no use of the GUI at all. Just splitting an HDMI stream from the Dune and decoding the audio to PCM.

You can buy a splitter for $40 on Amazon, but it does not decode the audio stream, there is no such device on the market.

Nor does any receiver: they decode, but only to output analog signals to be sent to the amps.

jctcom:
Can you tell me exactly which model of Dune Media Player you have?

Also while you are at it you might as well tell me which Goldmund processor you have?

Mimesis 16.8 or 32.5?
Or something different?
