The AMLogic SoC in this device does not support 7.1 HD Audio passthrough only 5.1
This applies to all AMLogic devices.

Get an Intel equipped Chromebox if you want 7.1 HD Audio Passthrough or a RPi2 if you want HD Audio to be decoded by Kodi and output as Multichannel PCM Audio to an AVR.

Quote:Audio Output > AMLogic-HDMI/SPDIF with:
===========================
Passthrough Enabled:
DTS HD MA/HRA > output as lossy 5.1 DTS (or 6.1 DTS-ES)

Dolby True HD > output as lossy 5.1 Dolby (Digital)
