; '''Audio output'''
This allows you to tell XBMC about the type of connection to the audio equipment so it can set the available GUI options appropriately, in addition it tells XBMC the LPCM capabilities of the connection. This unrelated with telling XBMC where the audio is actually sent, this is done via '''Audio output device''' and '''Passthrough output device''' settings.

:'''- Optical/Coax:''' This enables the selection of the Dolby Digital and DTS capable receiver options and limits the output of LPCM to 2 channels. :
:'''- HDMI:''' This enables all the capable receiver options, so in addition to what's available for Optical/Coax, TrueHD, DTS-HD, in addition LPCM is set automatically when Multichannel is enabled and there is no limit on how LPCM is passed.

"Windows only when active"

What does that mean? Rewording maybe needed?

Ah, now I get it. It's the continuation of the settings sentance "Use a fullscreen window rather than true fullscreen...Windows only when active". :) Udepub 15:19, 10 May 2013 (EDT)

Use limited color range (16-235)

The Description for this setting isn't quite correct.

It should be something like,

"This setting should be used if you TV/Monitor doesn't support full (255) colour space. Consult your TV or Monitor's manual for information about the colour mode that it supports."
