Full Version: Playback Problem
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I installed the Kodi 17 Beta 7 version and since that, the videos wont work unless the option "sync playback to display" is selected.
The video starts playing but the image freezes and no audio. If i set the option above everything works fine, the problem is with this option i can't get audio pass-through.

When the video is played using the option selected and after that i deselect it plays fine too,

I'm using kodi on nvidia shield with latest firmware.

Can someone please help?

Disable Passthrough. It's horrible broken and only works by luck.
If i disable Passthrough the Av will receive PCM decoded by Kodi.
Exactly that.
And will be corrected in next versions?
What is wrong with pcm decoded by kodi?
Nobody is working on it.

I'll prefer streaming to AV and let the DAC in AV doing the job.
You appear to be confused. Kodi is not doing any digital to analogue conversion. Your dac will still do that.
Yes i know, Kodi is converting the stream to PCM that means is decoding. Kodi can send multichannel PCM?
The strange thing is that works well with SPMC.
Jep - SPMC uses the famous PCM hack. If that works for you - keep it.
But the kodi 17 interface is a must Smile
It starts to work in RC version Smile
