If I'm not wrong (my boy is using it now, can't check/confirm), it does "fix" one thing.
The description on the Audio is now changed from "Stereo" to "PCM" and it says it supports multi-channel PCM.
Multi-channel PCM is never an issue for me, it's been always working in my setup.
But I know it didn't work for some of the folks here.
I'm wondering if the latest firmware really fixes the multi-channel PCM issue for you?
That is you can choose to get multi-channel PCM instead of DD+ when playing DTS/AAC contents.
Kodi Android v19 changed from using floating point to integer audio, which fixed the 5.1 PCM problem. (7.1 still doesn't work).
But when I play the 7.1 audio test file from Fraunhofer, I can confirm that both Back and Side audios are coming out of my back/surround speakers.
Doesn't it mean that my setup is capable of handling 7.1 audio?
