Dolby TrueHD playback errors in 7.0.15

I am playing DVD and BD ISOs in SageTV but have one problem. As of 7.0.13 Sage defaults to TrueHD if it's available, the problem is that these BD ISOs will not play back on my HTPC. They play back just fine on my HD100. I have installed ffdshow but still no luck, I still get "sage.PlaybackException: ERROR (-5,0x80040200): There was a problem rendering the audio portion of the content for playback." I am not using HDMI out, I just want to use either 6-channel analog or optical to my Logitech Z-5500, which does not support TrueHD.
I have a couple BD ISO that have TrueHD as the first audio track, is there a way that I can either (1) select a different audio track as the default before I start playing or (2) get TrueHD to playback on my machine?

Try setting this in your Sage.properties file (or SageClient.properties if using the service):

videoframe/dolbytruehd_audio_decoder_filter=ffdshow Audio Decoder

That did the trick, thank you!

Why is that my HD-100 could play TrueHD all along but cannot play DTS-MA audio? Those BD ISOs play but are mute, if I change to the ACS commentary audio track it works.

Your tv or reciever must be able to decode dts. The hd100 does not downmix dts.

Oh well, I'll live. I just got the HD100 this week, good deal on eBay. This is my first media extender and it's freakin sweet! It plays just as well as Beyond TV Link did for me, but SageTV does so much more, that and BTV sucks now.
