I am considering migrating my Kodi 16.1 on Win 10 to a Raspberry Pi 3 instead. I have a few movies that are 1080p resolution, and DTS HD-MA audio. I haven’t been able to verify that the Pi 3 will do DTS HD-MA (or even DTS) passthru. (I have a Denon E-300 that supports this, and that’s how my current Kodi is set up – WASAPI passthru). I’ve read over on the raspberrypi.org forums that they don’t support passthru; then later are posts that say they do. 🙂
So: Is anyone using Kodi on a Raspberry Pi 3 this way? (1080p, DTS HD-MA passthru) If so, how well does it work? Buffering, stuttering, etc? What of the other BluRay audios – TrueHD, etc.I have no 4K, and no plans to. But I do need 1080p, and the advanced audios.
I’m looking for user experiences with this type of configuration. Ideally, I’d like to use a Pi 3, but I am spoiled and would want all the supported (passthru) codecs I have now.
Thanks
