Have installed from the Mega link earlier in this thread.
I get some very strange results. DTS HD MA tracks trigger my Onkyo amp into DTS HD MA mode (the right lights come on) but I get silence. Dolby True HD stuff appears to be output in a format that makes the receiver think it is PCM 2.0 (I get PCM 2.0 reported by the amp when I check what it thinks it is being fed), and I get silence and the odd bit of digital break up.
Are there settings in Android I need to alter. I've enabled bitstream (DD/DTS is fine bitstreamed) and have also enabled EAC3, DTS HD and True HD. I have tried with speakers at 2.0 and 5.1 (in case that was an issue)
Not sure what I've done wrong.
If I disable passthrough DTS HD MA plays back with 7.1 PCM output fed to the amp (though I've configured 5.1 speakers) No way of checking if this is DTS or DTS HD MA decode. The OSD codec overlay says "dts (DTS HD MA)" and the bitrate is around 3.8Mbs.
The same is true of Dolby True HD tracks. I get 7.1 PCM output to my amp, but no way of knowing if it is DD or True HD that is being decoded, though the OSD codec overlay says "true HD (AC3/ xxxxx)" and reports 3.4Mbs bitrate.
Assuming the overlay is correct, then I'm getting Multichannel PCM Decode - (yay!) - (as per the Pi 2) but not bitstreaming with my current set-up (boo!) ?
If this gets rolled into Linux stuff for the C1/C1+, C2 and other AMLogic devices then Wetek will have done an amazing service to the Kodi community. They appear to be doing a great job so far. Many thanks from me for all of their efforts both on their own products, which are very neatly packaged and made and ideal for people who want to avoid "DIY" and want Netflix etc. But they are also potentially helping us DIYers as well. Which is brilliant and in such an amazing contrast to others <cough> Vidon.
