While AC3 Filter and ffdshow still work in Windows 10 my HTPCs can transcode PCM decoded from all AAC formats by LAV filters, and given that bitstreaming with external LAV filters doesn't work for me in Windows 10, directing AC3Filter to be used for AC3 and DTS, and specifying those formats for bitstreaming in AC3 Filter, overcomes that obstacle. In the past (some time ago) there was experimentation with multi-channel but IIRC it was AC3 audio.

In my neck of the woods we only have stereo TV channels and the tendency is to broadcast AC3 on HD channels, although there is some AAC on SD channels. It may be because source TV material is multi-channel AAC (probably unlikely because there are no AV receivers available to decode it) or because there is an attempt to maximise compression to keep file size to a minimum.

I don't know why people use it to code media. I acknowledge I do not see many examples of multi-channel AAC content, and it is some time since I last saw one. It's not so much a matter of avoiding multi-channel AAC content as coping with it when it does arise. I would look at avoiding multi-channel AAC content entirely? It is not a great way to do surround (hence why many receivers don't support it) this would go a long way to solving some of your problems. This is not as bad as no audio after refresh rate changing, but I would still prefer to see the correct audio format delivered to the AV receiver after refresh rate changing. After madVR refresh rate changing, the audio delivered to the AV receiver is PCM sound until video play is stopped then started again. However, the audio delivered to the AV receiver is PCM sound until video play is stopped then started again. I may try again, but for now I have returned to PotPlayer and external LAV filters.Įdit: On closer scrutiny, it appears that AC3Filter's automatic association with post-processing MPC-HC sound is NOT lost when audio output set to Internal Audio Renderer, and after madVR refresh rate changing. It may be that I have just not found the correct combination of settings. Setting AC3 Filter as a preferred External Filter in MPC-HC, E-AC3 (at least) appeared to be decoded to PCM i.e. I think it might matter more if we wished to transcode multi-channel PCM.ģ. This would not matter too much if the only PCM we wanted to transcode was stereo.
However, it appears that AC3Filter's automatic association with post-processing MPC-HC sound is lost because stereo PCM (now received at the Yamaha receiver as stereo) was not transcoded to AC3. With audio output set to Internal Audio Renderer, sound does survive madVR refresh rate changing. Sound does not survive madVR refresh rate changing.Ģ. With audio output set to Default DirectSound Device, behaviour as before. I had another go at setting MPC-HC 1.8.4 as the external player in Emby Theater, this time with the Exclusive mode checkbox selected under Audio Renderer.ġ. I don't know how Windows and the receiver would cope with multi-channel PCM, if Windows was set to stereo only mode and AC3 Filter (and/or ffdshow) was disabled. I haven't found an AV receiver yet that will decode AAC sound so the only option is to decode using LAV audio, ffdshow, or AC3 Filter and (if AC3Filter is set for transcoding PCM to AC3) transcoding on the fly. The problem I see with setting to stereo is playing back multi-channel AAC. Otherwise I'm limited to using PotPlayer. I'll certainly try setting Windows to stereo mode, but my priority is to try and work around loss of audio when using MPC-HC and display rate switching with madVR. I personally see no upside in setting Windows to anything other than 2.0. I have always set all machines to 2.0 as 99% of generic sound content is 2.0 which keeps everything in check and fixes your PL issues - as for the rest its bitstreamed and bypasses the shared mixer anyways. This makes sense, however I see no reason to set Windows to anything other than stereo mode, for proper surround everything is bitstreamed anyway.
