Hello Gentlemen,
I have a library of .mkv movies. Each movie is encoded with either DTS-HD, Dolby Digital True HD, and/ or Dolby Digital EX. It appears that Kodi 17.6 (Current Version) is down mixing the DTS-HD to standard DTS, and Dolby Digital HD, EX to the standard Dolby Digital 5.1. I've checked my settings. The (pass-through) is enabled, and the Audio Output Device is set at Direct Sound: (HDMI ATI High Definition Audio Device). The Sony receiver that I own is very informative as to what signal is being received and at what bitrate. The configuration is a follows: Computer (ATI-HD Audio Device/ Video Card OUT) to (HDMI Sony receiver IN) 2 (HDMI Sony 65" TV IN).
In the days of the Jarvis, there was a separate setting for DTS-HD Master Audio is the audio settings. I was led to believe this setting was removed because it confused the End User. I would appreciate any input in resolving this particular issue.
One last request. Would it be possible to provide a minimize button like other windows apps. This way troubleshooting can be so much easier. It becomes tedious opening and closing the program.
