KTLADT 5 HD (THE CW) - v6 .15 - Video, but wrong audio stream.

[Robsters]

Submitted a bug report for v6.0.15.

Upgraded to 6.0.15 tonight. Tuned KTLADT (aka KTLA, aka The CW, aka Channel 5-1 in the Los Angeles area).. Happy to see video but was a little surprised when I turned on my audio receiver to hear Spanish.

I tried some of my previous recordings and they play back correctly in English.

I have downgraded back to 6.0.13.

My one test recording (previously in Spanish) now plays correctly in English 5.1 DD with 6.0.13.

Happy Thanksgiving,
Robert

You can try diabling multiple audio streams using regedit:
In:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FreyTechnologies\Common\DSFilters\TSSplitter]
Add:
DisableMultiAudio, dword value 00000001. Might help, might not!

I'm curious... I don't have any such videos to try this on, but if you use the Options command during playback, is there an option to choose the audio langauge?

6.0.13 always plays the 5.1 audio and 6.0.15 always plays the stereo (Spanish) . Even if I change the "Audio Language" during playback.

The "Audio Language" box shows that is playing the 5.1 audio stream by default in 6.0.15, but it is really playing the stereo stream.

I try to change audio options. As soon as I select a different stream in the audio box, it disappears and the audio does not change. I go back to the Audio Language options and it shows the option I chose, but does not change the actual stream for playback.

Just for reference, 6.0.14 played the wrong audio stream for me, I got an audio comentory on one of my recordings at the same time as the correct soundtrack, it mixed them both together.

6.0.15 has fixed this and I can now switch between the correct soundtrack and the audio comentory.

6.0.13 and before were also ok for me.

If you're having trouble getting the right audio stream to play then try changing your Audio Renderer in Detailed Setup->Audio/Video. In testing there was a case where this problem arose and that resolved the issue.

If you're still having problems, please submit a bug report: http://sagetv.com/bugs.html

I tried the TSSplitter.ax, by shutting down Sage copying the file over TSSplitter.ax in the SageTV/Commons directory.

Switched back and forth between 6.0.15 default and the one from this tread with no noticeable change. Still get the alternate stream on KTLADT.

Watching other channels I noticed the same problem with KTTVDT (FOX 11). It also plays the alternate stream.

I discovered that changing the Settings / Detailed Setup / "Video / Audio" / Audio Renderer from Default to Default DirectSound Device using either TSSplitter.ax file. I am able to get english and 5.1 audio from KTLADT, but not KTTVDT.

I also noticed with either TSSplitter.ax file that my previous recordings made using 6.0.13 from KTLADT playback in 2 channel English. Even with changing the Audio Renderer. Minor but though I would mention it here.

One thing bothers me though... Trying to change the "Audio Language" does not change the audio stream playing. The option changes though.

I'll be traveling on business until Thursday and won't be around to try anything new until then. Might give me some time to think about it.
