Running MC on a Windows 10/64 PC with everything up to date. I have movies on a NAS and music on the local host. The PC feeds HDMI to an Anthem AVM60, and then a Sony A9E TV. I use two libraries. Main library contains both music and movies. Music library is just music. The music library configuration enables a media network and that seems to work fine. The main library does not implement media network, though I would like to set that up.
If I have been playing from the music library, there is a problem accessing enhanced audio formats with the main library. When I select a bluray, the title screen plays but when it tries to play DTS or Dolby enhanced formats, it stops and tells me the audio format is not supported. In fact, I can check the configuration of my RTX3090 graphics card and all the formats are listed as supported. The AVM60 has no problem with these formats. There was no problem before I started using media network.
I can make it work by selecting various sources in audio options. For example, there will be default system source (direct sound) and direct sound and WASAPI versions of the AVM60/Nvidia source. If I select these enough times, sooner or later one of them will work. Doesn't seem to be any particualr one. I think it is the source selection process that finally "takes".
Any advice?
