Hi guys,
I've been looking for a solution to output AAC on my PC through S/PDIF to my home audio system. My home audio receiver is capable of independently decoding AAC. On my computer, I'm using ffdshow. It has options to passthrough AC3 and DTS, but not AAC. If I chose to disable AAC on ffdshow codecs, it still won't work. I also know of the "convert AAC-to-AC3 on the fly" method, but I really would like to figure out a direct native passthrough to preserve quality. I've also given thought to switching over to AC3Filter and others, but it doesn't seem like they support it either. If anyone could recommend one that works, it would be helpful Its possible that I'm missing something very simple here.  Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

How would I go about doing that, though? I definitely have a multi-channel AAC video, it just downmixes it to stereo on my receiver, though. The AC3/DTS stuff gets properly represented as multi-channel modes on my receiver, on the other hand.

Using MPC-HC 64bit + ffdshow 64bit + coaxial cable + yamaha rx-v659 Well, the are no problems with DTS and AC3 bitstreaming to my AV receiver. But AAC doesn't want. I'm not really good in all this $hi%. I just tried everithing I read here in this topic and still getting PCM signal (( OK, I dont need to bitstream AAC. Just to encode it to any multichannel format at least. Can anyone explain me step by step where to go and what to push\tick ? There are only very few movies with AAC but I want to finish it)) P.S> Sorry so my war from perfect English. |
