Hey guys,
so, I received the 5.1 fix a few days ago and since then I am trying to get DD/DTS to work on my Fire TV 2 and after fiddeling around with it I came to the conclusion that it's definitely related to Kodi running on the Fire TV 2. DD works totally fine on normal amazon/netflix content but as soon as I want to run something within kodi I only get static noise once I enable pass through. PCM 5.1 works just fine though but I'd like to know if the Kodi team is aware of the issue or if it is related to something else. I know that Android doesn't even support DTS naturally and that it's kinda hacked together but DTS always worked just fine for me on my Fire TV 1 and my Denon X2100W but with the Fire TV 2 it's not working anymore.
Is there any kind of update, fix or at least acknowledgement in sight that shows that the Kodi team is aware of the issue? If they don't care for it and don't want to invest the time to bypass the issue that is fine with me since it is a free product but then I'll send my Fire TV 2 back and just continue to use my old WD TV Live HD, that's why I am asking.
Thanks!
