AV-710, MediaMonkey & Kernel Streaming

[Jammin72]

Howdy folks!

Thought some of you might be interested that after some tweaking I've gotten MediaMonkey 3.0, the AV-710, and Kernel Streaming to play nice togehter automatically. No more manual switching!! The New Via 5.20 Drivers with the Kernel Streaming Plugin for Winamp do the trick. Now DTS, Flac16, Flac24, you name it play bit perfect over optical to the STR-DA3000Es and AV-C70ES. Dramatic improvment over the DS Output Modes. Volume control is gone but who really cares, gapless is also operations. The new MediaMonkey is quite nice I can't wait for for the Beta to run it's course and get a release. For you "computer as a source" folks on the cheap this solution is great. I attempted with foobar2000 but the 710 would not Auto Switch sampling frequency, it was a manual process.

Now to pray to the Hard Drive Gods for more cheap storage!
