Hi,
I'm planning to build a linux-based, small sized PC for hearing aid acousticians. It would be highly unfavorable, if the connection between Receiver and PC was analog, because of the lower quality and the high number of cables. I searched for a appropriate mainboard, and found the DG45FC, which fits my needs perfectly, apart from the missing audio over HDMI support. Is there any plan to support multichannel LPCM output over HDMI on the Intel G45 platform?
Yes. Now waiting for the updated patch from Intel guys, hopefully it'll be available soon later.
It's ready now!
We did a lot of code refactor, testing and bug fixes in the last ten days, and now it's ready for release :-)
Note that X.org intel video patches are also necessary for HDMI sound output.
However our 3 HDMI monitors have only 2-channel audio support, so 8-channel LPCM audio may not work for now.
Thank you, Fengguang
