Hi everyone! A newcomer to the community here!
I really need some help. I have a Nvidia Shield TV plugged in to my Samsung Soundbar HWK-960 and I'm using KODI on the Shield to play movies through my external harddrive. But whenever the audio is DTS HD Master there's no sound (DTS HD and DTS is fine). Is there any way for me to fix this in the settings or something?
Appreciate all the help I can get!

No - sorry. We exactly pass through the IEC packages. Sure that Soundbar supports it? Which DTS-HD streams work?
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Are you sure your soundbar can decode DTS HD? Looking at its specs, I find it suspicious that is says this...
Dolby Digital - Dolby Atmos / Dolby True HD / Dolby Digital Plus
DTS Digital - Surround DTS 2ch

It seems that the soundbar doesn't support DTS-HD MA audio format.

Hi, I have an issue with DTS-HD Master (no sound) using kodi 18.9 android on an nvidia shield. The same file however works fine with spmc 16.7 using "Android, Raw Passthrough" or "Android, IEC Passthrough". I've tried every combination I can think of with no luck. I can however play regular DTS with kodi. I'm using a Yamaha a740 avr and a Sony A8H oled tv, I do have passthrough enabled on the tv for dts. Any ideas? Thanks.
