Hello,

I've been using Kodi for some time now, but I yesterday I came across an mkv file with the following audio channel:

Code:
Format                                   : AAC LC
Format/Info                              : Advanced Audio Codec Low Complexity
Codec ID                                 : A_AAC-2
Channel(s)                               : 6 channels
Channel layout                           : C L R Ls Rs LFE
Sampling rate                            : 48.0 kHz
Frame rate                               : 46.875 FPS

and there is no sound when I play it. On my computer, MPC HC won't play sound, but VLC will.

Now I am puzzled. I googled a lot, and althouth I am an IT guy, I must admit that I was lost pretty quickly with all those technical audio terms and all the available encoding formats.

So. What can I do? Do I need an additional decoder plugin for Kodi?

​​​​​​​My setup:
Raspi 4 with LibreELEC, PHILIPS 55PUS8303, MAGNAT Sounddeck 600.

Sorry for the probably trivial question.


Cheers
