Kodi v15 Passthrough 5.1 (DTS or AC3) give audio drops
#1
Hi,

This is my first post on Kodi Android Forum and I would first like to thank all the developers for this wonderful Kodi software Smile

Here is my setup:

Tronsmart Draco AW80 (GPU PowerVR GC6230) --HDMI--> Onkyo TX-NR807 --HDMI-> Samsung TV (1080p@60)

Lastest firmware from Tronsmart with Android 4.4.2. All my mkv movies files are on an NFS share on a Mac OSX server (1Gbps connection).

XBMC/KODI v14 from the Tronsmart image work perfectly with passthrough 5.1 DTS or AC3 but with Kodi v15 (or v16), I have audio drops almost every 2 seconds with little video stutter when audio drops (when no audio passthrough, everything work perfectly). I also try SPMC v15 (not from Google Play because they only have SPMC v14) and when I switch to audio passthrough, I only have noise.

I read a lots of post since a few weeks and it seem that audio passthrough seem to be a problem since Kodi v15.

Is there any thing I can do to correct that problem ?

Thanks for any help !

BTW, I also try it with Optical SPDIF audio output and it is the same problem.
