Hello,
Sorry for asking something that has been asked many times before, i have had a read through older posts but just can't seem to get audio working properly.
I have just set up Linux Mint there again dual booting it along side Windows 10, i have always been wanting to use this as my main OS but i always have just the one problem setting up Kodi.....each time in the past i have set it up i always have a problem with display drivers and Kodi usually gives me sound with very laggy video.
This instalment went a lot better and Mint 18 looks really polished and fast, also noticed that when i have Windows 10 on screen using my trusty old Revo RL80 my TV outputs a 1080p at 24hz, when using this version on Mint my TV is up-scaling the signal to 3840x2160 at 24hz and the picture just looks that bit better.
But as usual i have one problem that will stop me from using Mint and it is concerning Kodi again, but this time the video is playing fine with no problems at all, the sound is giving me a problem now....
I have the sound running to my Denon receiver and i am only getting stereo sound if i disable passthrough in Kodi, if i enable it i don't get any sound at all. I have had a mess about with settings in pulse audio and followed a guide to set the HDMI speakers to stereo but its not happening.
Pretty sure the last time i set up Mint my amp was playing and displaying DTS MA and TrueHD ?......i could be wrong about that and maybe it was DTS and DD, i can't remember now.
Any of you Gurus have any ideas as how to get the HD audio working?
THanks for any help.
