the sound playing through hdmi is recognised as linear PCM without multichannel

Are you sure you have audio set to “Digital” and not “Stereo”?

ofcourse

i tried stereo, digital and digital without hdmi

the last option ofcourse gives no sound when using hdmi

and my av receiver is a sony STR-DA2400

i doubt that will be the cause 

Yes, I have the same problem. When I swiched off autologon to network shares, it is working, but i have to enter the user/pass every time. When i swich on the autologon option, it cant logon to NAS (ReadyNas NV+).

Anyone else?

Any idea?

Thanks,

Indizann,

Make sure no other cables are connected to the WDTV, just HDMI to your amp input.

Try to connect your WDTV player to the BD HDMI input on the receiver
Press the BD source button on the remote
Press INPUT MODE and ensure it says AUTO

If still no joy, try another HDMI input on the AMP, but make sure you are NOT also connecting TOSlink or coax on the same input…

My 2c,

well that was weird

i rolled back to 1.02.21 (after i had tried several of the beta firmwares)

i tested the same file and i got dolby digital through my hdmi cable, as i suspected

then i decided to upgrade again from the 1.02.21 to the 1.03.49 (all other times i upgrade from one beta to another)

and now i have dolby digital again

hooray :slight_smile:

After the upgrade my mp4 files will not play audio.

Is this just me or is this a global thing…

None of them?  What’s the audio?  All AC3?  All DTS?  All AAC?  A Mixture?  Not even Stereo out?

my mp4 play ok can check here with media info what audio codecs use

must have software if u WDTV live user.

My WD TV Live was working perfectly before the upgrade and now after upgrading firmware it sees the network drive but can’t connect (no media in current folder error) I tried turning off auto logon and it still doesn’t work. Also tried a power off reboot and no go.

Western Digital has really dropped the ball.
