I have a laptop with an NVidia 8600M/HDMI output and audio works through HDMI, but I have only stereo output, no 5.1 (but maybe it's possible), using nvidia binary driver (I don't know if it works with the nv driver). I think all nvidia cards with an HDMI out will work (at least with the binary driver) although you should check before buying. I also have a Gigabyte with an intel G45 (GMA X4500HD) with an integrated HDMI out. When I was testing sound through HDMI was not available but from what I've read sound should now work since alsa 1.0.18 (but I didn't try it since I use an optical SPDIF cable). - From what I know it should also work on ATI cards. Anyway you should check on alsa website : http://alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Special:Search?search=hdmi&go=Go - -- regards, strawks -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iEYEARECAAYFAkmbFUMACgkQ+2TXLlA5m79vIACcCEJoFi0eb4wPeaH6yWwtWZmF soQAn3ClTbeLxF8fvFwV01LwiQ7lXT5H =WwzQ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ Freevo-users mailing list Freevo-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freevo-users
