LPCM Audio Flag not been displayed ?
#1
HI all

I am using kodi 17.3 and there seems to be a problem with LPCM audio flag been displayed. I have two movies both with 2 audio tracks each. The movie has LPCM 8 channel and a dolby digital 6 channel track, The LPCM track is the default track and the PCM flag is been displayed correctly by kodi no problem there.

I have another movie with LCPM 6 channel and dolby digital 6 channel same order same LPCM default but kodi displays the dolby digital flag not the LPCM flag, the only different between the movies is that the lpcm movie with 8 tracks displays the pcm flag correctly ut the movie that has the same amount of channels as the dolby digital but does not display the pcm track.

here is the movie that does not display the pcm audio flag
