How ok now i understand Tongue
Does Xbian output DTS-HS or Dolby TrueHD on RPi2?

no it doesn't
it's Raspberry Pi limitations not XBian
Thanks, I understood that it was a RPi limititation but had hoped with the more powerful processor in RPi2 it would have been fixed.
As a very satisfied user of XBian on RPi model B, I don't see a reason to upgrade then?

it's about licencing not a power. means the Raspberry foundation would have to buy those and than project into the final price of RPi

Or offer as a purchase like the mpeg2/vc-1 license?
No, it's a hardware limitation. The bandwidth of the GPU cannot handle HD audio.
On the Pi 2 though it seems these can be decoded in software and you'd get 5.1 PCM (assuming your receiver supports multichannel PCM).

Hardware: yes.
Software: no.

I've been hoping another customer would request it, but so far it's not been asked for.
I asked around and was quoted about a man-week to do the work (from the guy who did the standard DTS passthough).

Need to find out if RPF could justify paying him to do the work.
The only issue I appear to be having is overscan related (I've searched and not found anything similar)

Overscan settings defined in config.text or set via previous boot in calibration, all is good..

Reboot device, background comes up, all appears good, then as the menu pops up (and the bleeep sound) the display jumps and resets back to 0...

no issue here at all

Samsung UE40F6500 no problem with my old pi, just this new install on the rpi2..

so why u using a calibration?should fit without any of these extra settings. I have never used one on any of my TVs in past 7 years
I used it initially as I still had a CRT TV when I first got the Pi, there for calibration has remained in use since..

Ahh, I removed the sdtv settings, maybe that's why..
