Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Technical Questions No sound output from PC playing DVDs

Hi Dean

Thanks for your reply,

To answer some of your questions:

Windows XP SP3
PowerDVD 8 Ultra edition, tried 7 Ultra as well.
Using the AVM20 prepro
The xonar drivers and it's control panel configure sound options.

The sound card digital output via RCA coax cable connects to my digital input RCA Coax on the AVM20, so it's digital to digital.

I can play music via winamp from my xonar digital out to my AVM digital in on AUX no problem, but when I connect it to my " DVD " digital input and play a movie from powerdvd or media player classic etc.. no sound. That is very strange because by all accounts, it should work.

Yes, I've tried the " s/pdif outup" from powerdvd.. not effect.

I've tried every possible configuration options of my xonar sound card.. to no avail.. maybe as a test I will try using the onboard sound of the motherboard.. it's pretty crappy quality compared to the Xonar, but it will help in troubleshooting.

Cheers
Stephane
