[QUOTE="user 1447, post: 118972, member: 1447"] with the mede8er - if you cant play HD audio i have noticed it will stutter and dropout if you leave it on the HD audio option - if you have the DD+ chipset and if you update that to the 4.04 firmware and play the HD codecs on passthrough via HDMI then everything is perfect as long as it doesnt attempt to [u]downmix[/u] the HD audio to the core versions ie DTS-HD(ma) to regular DTS OR Dolby TrueHD to AC3 all this is dependent on having the correct hardware versions ie the Realtek 1073DD+ is a must so that it allows the software to passthrough the HD audio - the other option is you can try to use the second option in your audio selection settings by changing this with the remote control - normally selection one would be the HD audio stream while the second and higher selections would be the others - so it mostly depends on whether the MKV file was transcoded with the HD audio or not - all of mine are and im also playing 30gig+ files perfectly as mentioned by PearlJam above but the first day i got the mede8er and before i did the firmware upgrade i also noticed the stuttering - upgrade to version 4.04 and everything became perfectly smooth including whilst playing at 1080p and also playing the HD codecs [/QUOTE]
