The sound seting on Windows 7 is 7.1 channel out, PowerDVD is outputting PCM.
The problem is with The Incredibles 2, the center channel in certain high sound action scenes has horrible high mid to high frequency scratching sounds.
At first I thought it was my speaker so I swapped it out, then I swapped the video card, then I swapped the HDMI cable, then I checked the speaker wiring. Nothing fixed the issue.
Then I hooked up an external bluray player and played the same movie. No distorion.
Then I tried powerDVD 12 and the problem was NOT there. Then I tried PowerDVD 11 and the problem was NOT there.
Something is broken in PowerDVD 18's codec or mixing.
Please fix.
Thanks
