AMLogic Android devices running Oreo v8.1 or greater no longer has IEC61937 Kodi HD audio passthrough support in Firmware.
No idea why it was taken out.
The Nvidia Shield or the 2016 Mi Box (model MDZ-16-AB) still has IEC61937 support.
So, a possible 8.1 upgrade for 2016 Mi Box will eventually 'break' the passthrough?
This was when they changed all of the product documentation for the mi box S to remove mention of DTSHD or TrueHD, and now have a generic "dolby digital" mention.
This company plans to break your 2016 boxes, and lied about their current ones - boycott.
