Hi all,
I have been using SACD ISO playback for a little while now. Works great, excellent sound quality.
I stream via HDMI Wasapi to an Onkyo PR SC5507. I have noticed that 2ch and 6ch tracks play fine, but 5 channel tracks fail (all 24bit/176kHz). MC suggest to convert them to 2ch.
Has any one else run into this issue?
Regards
Rudi

Try setting Media Center's output to 5.1 in DSP Studio > Output Format.

Almost no hardware supports 5 channel output. So you need to use DSP Studio > Output Format to output a format that works with your hardware.

I'm having the same issue sending audio via hdmi to an Onkyo 805.
Changing the output channels to 5.1 makes these 5 channel tracks play. The side effect is that everything is now passes along as multichannel to the receiver (no upmixing - stereo is still 2 channel, but in a 5.1 container).
I prefer to leave the channels untouched when possible. Is there a way to activate this only on those sacd tracks with 5 channels?

same problem here with 5 channel sacd iso's.
any ideas?
-
again problem solved with a little bit searching :)
you have to define different zones (at least two zones for me) , one for 2 channel and 5.1 channel sacd playing , and one for 5.0 sacd playing.
same channels for the first zone and force 5.1 channels for the second one.
and then use zone switching.
jriver is the best so far..
