Windows 8 HD Audio

[bac42x]

I'm running NPVR on Windows 8 and I can't get audio with HD recordings. Audio is fine with Non-HD recordings. I'm using an HDHomerun tuner, a GeForce 8400GS video card with HDMI connection. I have SAF6 unlocked installed with these settings:
Video Renderer: VMR9 Custom
MPEG2 Video: Cyberlink Video Decoder (PDVD12)
H.264 Video: Cyberlink Video Decoder (PDVD12)
MPEG1 Audio: LAV Audio Decoder
AC3 Audio: LAV Audio Decoder

I've attached a picture from GraphStudioNext, which shows audio going to MPEG1 renderer (makes no sense to me, but no idea how to change it).

I've tried hard to read through the forums to figure this out without bothering anyone and tried dozens of settings, but I'm lost.

Thanks in advance,
Allen

zip and post your npvr.log after reproducing the issue.

On HD channels in the states, they're most likely using AC3. What AC3 decoder do you have selected?

You'll need to reproduce the problem, then zip and attach the npvr.log file so we can take a look.

The NextPVR default for live tv is m2a unless you use this in config.xml

<ForcedLiveTVClock>AC3 Audio Renderer</ForcedLiveTVClock>

For now, I'm only running W8 in Virtual Box but soon I should have it installed by itself but, in the first version I never could get it to run NPVR. Do you have the latest beta?

I'm running build 8400.

I've attached a log. The low-def Mission Impossible recording plays fine. The Olympics recording is the one with no audio. I noticed this in the log:

2012-08-01 20:11:08.270 [DEBUG][1] FindFilterByName failed to locate filter: madVR
2012-08-01 20:11:08.620 [DEBUG][1] FindFilterByName failed to locate filter: AC3Filter

Do I need to install AC3Filter? I thought LAV took care of that.

It seems that you have selected madVR as your renderer, try changing it to EVR. Also did you set LAV as decoder for AC3 audio?
