PowerDVD 8 Ultra - Build 2021a - Bitstream / Non Downsampling Support???

PowerDVD 8 Ultra build 2021a

''Now supports HDMI repeater''

Could ''repeater'' be meaning bitstream?

Will be working also with Asus HDMI 1.3 sound card (and not only with Auzentech)?

Could downsampling be a history for HDMI LPCM also?

Let's see...

I think that refers to the Intel hdmi repeater issue. Arcsoft recently made available the .125 version patch that addresses the issue. This could be Cyberlink doing a Me-too.
Refer here -> http://softwareblogs.intel.com/2008/04/22/hdcp-hdmi-repeaters-and-you-well-me-anyway/

No love for 7.3 yet, there 4407 patch still the latest one there.

Yes, i heard so (in the us forum).

I hope that's not the case

This patch breaks playback of Iron Man BD on my HTPC. PowerDVD crashes when I try to play that disc. Rolled back to the old 2021 and everything is fine again.
