OK, fist specs. Windows 7 x64 with HDMI cable from MoBo to HDTV. Very Simple. Now, I had to reinstall Windows 7 on my system, and obviously reinstall VLC. Before, I could play everything just fine. But now, my .mkv files with dts audio will play video but no audio. I can't figure out what. I have tweaked the settings and still can't get it to work. Any advice would be welcome. Thank you very much
Sorry, I meant to say that I have uninstalled and reinstalled. I also set the default player for .dts to VLC. But still no go
In Prefernces under audio, advanced, output modules, directx, there's a drop down menu for selecting hdmi. Any use?
I will try this when I get home. But I will say that other files play with audio in VLC. So I know the HDMI is working for them
GREAT NEWS! Somehow the audio is working! Here's what I did. I went into Device Manager and found my Intel Device Audio driver. I asked Windows to search for a newer one. Windows said my current one is the best one. So I closed out of that and searched the internet to see if there was a new one. Had a hard time finding that, so I moved on to attar's instructions. In order to get to that menu, I had to play a file. So I played one of the ones that wasn't working, and to my surprise the audio was fixed. I'm not sure what to say. That's literally all I did. attar: I then followed your instructions, but for that drop down menu I do not have HDMI as an option. I had tried every option listed, but none worked. So I kept it on default. Anyway, all is working. Thank you for those that replied
