As we know, AML hasn't delivered on bitstreaming yet for S812, but this fix courtesy of Christian does an excellent job of decoding HD audio formats and delivering them as uncompressed multichannel PCM to your AVR (same as Raspberry Pi). It needs a little work to fix minor kinks I found, but just something cool to look forward to for all of us !
Great news. Unless you need Atmos or some dial norm metadata-y stuff then a 5.1/7.1 PCM output losslessly decoded should be fine.
