Well, in this cause we are talking Audio and pass-through in particular

And when it comes to videos, the audio is no good without the video. There's this little thing called audio/video sync.

New Videoplayer in 17?

Yes.

Where's the thread split gone? Cleared up or deleted?

They deleted the way off topic confrontation to clean up this topic. It did not belong here. Fingers crossed for V17. I want a shield but still hesitant about buying.

Split would've been better. It will be there for V17 according to the devs so not sure why you're hesitant.

Yeah - someone deleted all my posts, all explanations of development and passthrough that went into v17.

I have some good news for you all: Starting from today fritsch will stop caring for this cross platform mediacenter ... just do whatever you want to it.

I was disappointed to see your explanations disappear. So some trigger happy mod went OTT? I'm confused. Are you no longer seeking platform uniformity or are you saying you don't care what happens to Kodi anymore and don't want to develop for it?

If so, don't leave Fritsch! We need android devs and I'm sure we'll see the benefits when the first alpha hits. I think what a lot of people are forgetting is that it takes teamwork to put releases like this together. If the team starts to fall apart, progress won't be made nearly as quickly. With Koying going / gone, this is no doubt a blow and as much I'm sure you contributed to V17's code Fritsch, isn't it best you speak within the team to resolve the conflict / bad feelings?

The split-off posts are here, not deleted.

As he did it, address any requests for reinstatement to @ronie. This is exactly why I wanted someone involved with the discussion to do the splitting, as I mentioned before.

Thank you for not deleting them. Apologies for the trigger happy comment.

Moved back to public with the ascent of ronie.

To get this straight. If I want Bitstream HD sound I should use the 29 Dec build in this thread and if not then use beta 6 since HD sound won't still make it in the official before 17.

If you have the shield and you want perfect HD bitstreaming then you can't gogo wrong with the 29 build in this forum

I wouldn't say perfect as TrueHD seems to need a little finetuning but it's great until 17 comes along.

Maybe it's title specific as I haven't experienced any lip sync issues, even with my two "problematic" truehd test cases. There's clearly exciting things on the horizon though so hopefully the devs can resolve their differences!
