@manfeed Although I have some "inconsistencies" in all that I cannot quite explain, especially from a programmers standpoint.
1. All my TrueHD Atmos files have "truehd_atmos" in the coded in the .NFO, which for Kodi, according to your list, is not recognizable. But yet they very all show TrueHD logo in your skin and if I go to the info screen the codec which is truehd_atmos in the .NFO shows truehd, with the correct number of channels. So far so good because it is kinda right. But seems some kind of magic. I don't like magic as programmer
2. But now I have some DTS-X files which all have "dtshd_ma_x" in my .NFOS, again this should be not recognizable by Kodi. And now the magic gets even worse. 99% of the files show as DTSHD Master in the codec, and also have the logo. Ok kinda right. The dtshd_ma_x magically changed to dtshd_ma in the info screen. But here I have movies, same matroska container, same information in the .NFO, same everything, where the logo of the first codec is empty then, and I go into the info screen, and there it shows dtshd_ma_x, so the info I put into the .NFO, and which is not/should not be recognizable by Kodi. But I don't know based on what this happens.
3. Now comes the strangest thing, yesterday I added some other "truehd_atmos" files and at first the codec in the skin was only displayed but had no logo. And after some time they magically changed to TrueHD atmos logo and "truehd" information in the info screen, like with all my other "truehd_atmos" movies. But I have changed nothing in my settings or anything else in the meanwhile.
The 1% of my DTS-X movies stayed "empty" however.
4. "eac3_atmos" also stays empty, this is kinda expected as it is not in the Kodi list of valid values. But I would have expected same for "truehd_atmos" files. This is so strange all.
I have Kodi set to scrape only with local scraper and nothing else. I can only explain that there was some sort of update between adding the most bunch of my movies and the new/last ones. My .NFOs look same for all of them as I double checked that.
According to follow the rule of correct codecs and not codecs with extension I might change my .NFO files back to only codecs, but do you have an explanation for that strange behavior?
