No SPDIF passtrough when use Power dvd or WMPlayer

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
I dont know realy, but when put a dvd in any player that allow passtrogh, 
and press play , there is no sound.

What is the expected output? What happens instead?

I espected that sound 5.1 or something, buth there is no sound, the only 
thing that happens is that the light in my receiver (yamaha) ticks once 
and nothing more, meanwhile i can play anything on winamp or divx (mp3 or 
wma)

What version of the driver are you using? On what operating system? What 
version of the operationg system are you using (32 or 64 bit)?

i use CMIDriver-1.1.9-bin-x86 , and win xp sp2 32, but with any driver cmi 
doesn´t work

What ports of the soundcard are affected by the bug (e.g. SPDIF, Mic-In)?

I think SPDIF ??

Please provide any additional information below.

It happened when played at the same time a DVD with Spdif passtrough and a 
song in winamp (mp3 )

If you can help realy thanks

this is probably caused by a problem with the configuration of your player 
software. 
please check whether everything is set like it is described in the FAQ and 
report 
back.

are you sure that you've hooked up your receiver via SPDIF? it sounds to me 
that 
you're using the analog ports.
reinstalling windows won't fix things - it's a better idea trying to narrow the 
error down.

Hello again:

my receiver is hooked up via optical cable, im not using analog, I have heard 
somewhere that exist a part in the software (windows) or hardware (sound 
card)that 
bypass when you use passtrough and when you use wimanp or other software that 
produce wave and use sound mixer. could be this???

nope, I don't think so - the driver is written in a way that the passthrough 
mode 
has priority over PCM playback.
I'd like to ask you to confirm that the driver has been install correctly by 
running 
cmicontrol.exe and checking the last tab. Additionally, could you please try 
media 
player classic in conjunction with ffdshow for DVD/media playback? This is the 
most 
robust combination of software when it comes to passthrough mode that I am 
aware of. 
The FAQ on this site contains information including screenshots on how to set 
up the 
software for passthrough.

running cmicontrol.exe just confirms that the driver has been installed 
correctly - 
there are some pitfalls for the installation.
powerdvd uses its own code for passthrough.
