I have Dolby Atmos/TrueHD, DTS:X/HD-Master Audio passthrough working properly on my Android TV Box using Kodi Krypton.
What is everyone banging on about here ?

EDIT: Sorry, Apologies wrong Android TV forum thread. I should be posting in the Android TV - Mi Box thread ! Big Grin

I like Ronie's Pony Pic so it deserves a repost... Blush

Sorry for being curious, but did you need to "adjust refresh rate with 2.5 seconds delay" or did audio passthrough work immediately? I suppose you have a 2015 non-pro SHIELD as well?

I couldn't get it to work, even with the 2.5 second delay.

I've switched off the "Adjust Refresh Rates", and it works fine. To be honest, my old eyes can't see much difference.

Try a delay of around 4.1 seconds works 100% everytime for me

It seems it works for some dolby systems, but not all. I am using it with a Samsung F8500 Plasma with an optical output to an older Samsung AV receiver. Which was working fine until the Nvidia ~ 5 update.

This is not about the "settings", I do not even have "Adjust Refresh Rates" set. Even I tried setting it and setting a large delay no change.

And it does not seem directly a Kodi issue, SPMC and Plex seems to be doing the same.

And I am really sorry to bother everyone with my issue about Nvidia in a Nvidia titled thread. Which never should have been done, and a moderator called me "Extremely stupid" for that, and got away without any apologies

Someone can be wrong, but does not deserve to be trolled to be wrong. But of course we are in a Trump era, everyone will getaway with everything.

I have upgraded my Shield to nougat. Kodi auto upgrades to v17 - but I want to stick with v16 - can I stop it upgrading as it seems to self upgrade every time I switch off. With thanks

Turn off auto updates in the Play Store.

I am on SPMC and my passthrough all of a sudden stopped working alongside my onkyo. Anyone knows why?

Im on latest shield update. and btw is it RAW passthrough or IEC (or whatever it is called) ?

Strange...did exactly the same after I lost passthrough after the update to 5.02 and still no passthrough.

My money is on the next Shield update:

I can confirm that it's a known SATV issue: https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic...73#5070114

Best thing to do is to report the issue to Nvidia, especially because you can receive the beta version of the needed update!
Use this form: http://surveys.nvidia.com/index.jsp?pi=b...61acc3fe29

Have you seen the latest beta builds of spmc?

https://github.com/koying/SPMC/releases

There is a fix in it called:

FIX: HD audio IEC on N (Shield + Mi)

Maybe fixes your problem?!

I'm suffering passthrough issue either. 2.5s delay or 24Hz setting works fine but I guess there shouldn't be probem with 0s or 60Hz.
