I have had a 2010 MacMini server with Snow Leopard, recently changed for a Quad-core i7 MacMini 2011 server, for my audivisual set-up in the living room.
I had to buy an Gefen HDMI Detective Plus between macmini and my Rotel Av Amplifier/Receiver to avoid the reset of the audio channels to the internal loudspeakers every time I changed from TV to projector, or even, change the channel in the TV. With the Gefen HDMI detective everything was smooth, even able to shut-down the TV while still listening Spotify through the AV Receiver.
I remember I had even to set the hardware acceleration off in Plex to get good results.
But actually with the Lion OS, nothing seems to work.
I have the same installation, the same Gefen HDMI Detective plus, the same TV, the same Rotel, but again the audio output is sent back to internal speakers everytime I change something beyond the macmini.
I have to re-start the MacMini to get control over HDMI audio out-put.
I have change to 44.000 Hz in MIDI sets, I have done anything I have been able to think of, and still have the problem.
Any idea?
