why? what is the advantage of passing through AC3 via HDMI (your log shows that you use HDMI)

processing of DD in AVR. Only to mention Midnight Movie features...

Enable AC3 encoding and you'll get AC3 to you AVR but AE is still able to fine adjust speed.

as i said before. generally it works and it had also worked on kodi 15.2. i wanted to report this issue to help.

I don't think that audio decoding and then reencoding to ac3 is an option. quality loss might be hearable but for sure cpu usage will be higher and is not usable on lower power cpu.

I can imagine if that will be going into kodi 17 final there will be much more people which will be bothered by no passthrough audio during TV. For trash TV it will be no problem. But if you are on Cinema Channels like sky has then you want DD without transcoding.

As i asked before: is disabling passthrough only temporary?

Why it worked most of the time after this commit: https://github.com/FernetMenta/xbmc/comm...a1f6d23439 Why i see a/v sync time goes up and the player let the audio async up to 7 secs? Why it is suddenly no problem when i rezapp or change the audio channel and then back to ac3 channel.
