View Full Version : Missing SPDIF sound for Hulu

On my Ubuntu 8.04 install (and my hacked opensuse one as well), sound works just fine using the optical out into my amp. Well, except for the problematic internet streams like CBS, Hulu & Comedy Central. I get sound for everything else, including DVD movies, other internet streams like On Networks and music. But there is no sound for Hulu. But there *is* sound for Hulu via the speaker plugs. I have Boxee set for Digital out. Is there a problem with Digital out for Hulu and, I presume, other flash-based streams?

No ideas on this one? Anyone else using the optical / SPDIF out for Boxee?

Don't know what happened but sound started working. Hulu playback is a little herky jerky though.
