| | Question= Does Gotham have HD audio passthrough support?
| |
| | Answer=
| |
| Yes, since Frodo it has HD audio passthrough support, thanks to the new '''[[AudioEngine]]'''.
| |
|
| |
| "HD audio" is a term for two audio formats (DTS-MA and TrueHD) that are most commonly found in some bluray discs. XBMC has supported these formats in the past, but has not been able to pass them on (passthrough) to audio receivers for maximum bit-perfect audio quality, until now. If you have an HD audio compatible sound system then check out the [[AudioEngine]] page for more information.

| | Question=Does XBMC for Mac OS X, iOS, or Apple TV 2 have HD audio passthrough?
| |
| | Answer=
| |
| While XBMC for Mac OS X does have the new [[AudioEngine]], which features many new improvements in audio quality for XBMC, HD audio passthrough is not currently possible on Mac OS X and iOS due to limitations on the OS level. Those who want HD audio passthrough will need to use a Linux-based OS or Windows on their Mac hardware. Note that XBMC for Mac OS X/iOS is still able to playback HD audio, just not via passthrough (it will be converted to another format before playback).

| | Question= Audio issues and/or slow video playback
| |
| | Answer=
| |
| {{See also|Settings/System#Audio output}}
| |
| Make sure that your audio settings are correct. Wrong audio settings will have severely negative effects on video playback:
| |
| * Your speaker setup is really correct
| |
| * If passthrough: you '''only''' enable the audio codecs your receiver supports.
| |
| * Select only the correct audio output device for analog and passthrough
| |
| ;Linux specific
| |
| * On AMD GPUs you must disable all "HD" passthrough options and "output stereo to all speakers". AMD drivers under Linux don't support HD audio passthrough. AC3 and DTS should be safe to enable. NVidia GPUs should be okay for HD audio (if supported by the hardware).
| |
| * Having issues on XBMCbuntu? See '''[[XBMCbuntu#XBMCbuntu no audio devices]]'''
| |
| ;Mac OS X specific
| |
| * If you hear sound only coming from the left side of speakers/headphones then you probably need to change your audio settings from 2.1 to 2.0.
| |
| ;Windows specific
| |
| * Most user can fix their issue by just switching to "DirectSound" in the [[Settings/System#Audio output|audio settings]]. See '''[[Windows Settings for AudioEngine]]''' for more in-depth information.
