Linux Kodi 17 aac surround support to pcm or reencode?
#1
Ive been running kodi 17 on my steamOS box. I have it set in pulseaudio to stereo output so that I can get normal dd/dts passthru working. I recently got some aac 5.1/7.1 files. When I play these I end up with stereo PCM. So just wondering what I might be missing settings wise to get surround PCM output. I no longer see a transcode option with kodi17 either so it doesnt seem like thats a possibility to try to fix it. This is over HDMI to an avr that supports the usual AC3/AC3-E/DTS/DTS-HD/etc using an nvidia gtx970 as hdmi out

Set speaker numbers to 2.0
Additionally enable AC3 Transcoding.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
