non playback of 24bit files in Media Centre 18
« on: January 21, 2013, 02:18:11 pm »

hi,

i am current using media centre 18 to test some products but i've hit a snag. anything i try to play that is 24bit files from my bit perfect test files isnt played back at all (its just skipped over in the media centre)

a sample of the test files can be found at:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2098629/BitPerfect_88K24Bit.zip

the system error log can be found at:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2098629/JRiver%20Log%202013-01-21%2020-10-26.zip

the same files play on other playback systems (and used to work a treat on media centre 17). i have tried this on 4 different machines now with the same effect, so it doesnt appear to be PC/install related

my system is:

What is Options > Audio > Output Mode set to?
And, DSP > Output Format?

options > audio > output mode is set to WASAPI - event style, with the settings set to: exclusive access device, and 100mS hardware buffering

DSP > output format - is not selected (unticked)

You'll want to use DSP Studio > Output Format to always deliver the highest bitrate your hardware supports.
