(if i disable transcoding, i get DTS no issues)
I believe normal passthrough is disabled by AC3 transcode. That is to allow settings like volume and amplification to be usable.
ok but if you have DTS passthrough enabled shouldnt a DTS stream override transcoding, and if not why not have the DTS passthrough option greyed out when transcoding is selected?
i also just checked on another OE device i have (amlogic s802) and i can confirm with the same 3 options selected i get DTS when DTS source is played.
