and I really don know what it means !!!
Please anybody can help me ?
It seems my bug is almost the same related to others here!
I would like to use the spdif output to send digital sound o my HT receiver using XBMC with DTS, 5.1, etc., and the HDMI to sen the video signal to my LCD TV.
All I get is the video signal and the sound signal via HDMI to the LCD TV !!!
Thanks
Mario
