Description
According to Ami Ben-David, and therefore Boxee the company in APP-432, Boxee does not support passthru digital audio. To summarize the situation, Boxee does not support sending digital audio via HDMI to a TV which then passes that audio on to a receiver. It does not matter if the TV supports the audio playback, only that it can pass it along to the receiver.
The problem: Boxee implies support for this feature now. Currently, this does work with all local media playback. However, it doesn't work with the new Vudu app.
Solution: Make passthru audio officially supported. It is already 90% implemented now, just make it official and fix it in the Vudu app or in whatever underlying API that app is using.
