Stock android 6.0 support DTS but nobody can tell you what your device maker could have modified.
Your firmware may not follow anymore stock android sound API and Kodi 17 will need your firmware to follow android sound API
That may be why you should have DTS but you do not have DTS

Once again: no Debug Log no issue. Or differently said: if your box supported it and if all settings were correct why were you here?

I'd suggest to stop arguing with him. He just has a box that had the broken amlogic firmware release where nothing worked.
Just throw it away and get something well supported

Ouh. What a pain :-(
RE: Passthrough Changes with v17 - Basje - 2017-01-11
Perhaps a positive note here: I had major sound related crashing on Fire TV firmware 5.2.1.1 and internet streams. But with the Krypton RC's no more issues. Yes, there is no DTS, but to be honest, I rather have decent pass-through support according to t he Android API without the crashing than DTS. I will patiently wait for a new firmware that supports API 23 or just buy an Vero 2 with OSMC (I need the SPDIF out for my Logitech Speakers). Thanks Fritsch for all you efforts.

Installed latest firmware and the default android player plays Dts audio but not Kodi , looks like need to live with this till the next update
Thanks for all the support and guidance

Flash LibreELEC Kodi to a Samsung EVO or Sandisk Class 10 SD card would be my suggestion, if you want the best Audio & Video support for Kodi on AMLogic S8xx/S905 boxes. Without having to rely on dodgy, unreliable AMLogic Android Firmware.
This is a dual boot setup, you still retain Android on internal eMMC Flash memory.

But why? On previous version (Kodi 16.1) all work correctly, DTS passthrough works without any problems.
It's definately software bug in 17 release.

Have the latest firmware released in November 2016, can anyone confirm getting DTS in android using Kodi 17?
It is a bug in Kodi 17
RE: Passthrough Changes with v17 - Geniy - 2017-01-11
I tested the version for for "shitty" devices from post 247 and DTS has worked on my Amlogic s912 "shitty" box and my "shitty" Yamaha reciever. Maybe you can insert checkbox for "Shitty device" in Settings/System/Audio in your final build in Kody17?

No
