Title: Audio setting for video
Post by: ferraridoc on January 02, 2013, 07:55:56 am

Hi here,
I upgraded form MC16 to 18 and I experienced a trouble in setting audio for video.
General audio settings are in Kernell Streaming two channels (stereo) with an external audio device (M2Tech-HiFace) via coaxial connection to the DAC and then to the tube power amplifier. There are no problems in audio playback.
Regarding the video playback, in MC16 in Option>Video>Advanced there was the option to set the Audio Playback device for video to an alternative audio device (Realtek Digital Audio - High Definition Audio through Optical connection in my case); in MC18 I don't find anything like this.
Now when I play videos/films I have to change all audio settings to send the correct audio stream (7+1) to the HT Amplifier.
I do something wrong? Any suggestions?
Thank you

You'll need to create a zone for each output.

This is better than the MC16 approach.  It allows each zone to be fully configured, including output settings and DSP settings.
