I have recently acquired a Xiaomi MDZ-16-AB. It runs marshmallow 6.0.1 , and it is updated to the latest build (699). As of this build , passthrough for DTS and TrueHD is supported. I have been using Kodi for years on pc , and all codecs are fully supported by my Harmon Kardon avr-254. Passthrough works for me , but not all codecs. DTS-HD Master and True-HD do not work. My avr simply stalls when those streams are selected. The thing is the following codecs will bitstream with no issues : Dolby Digital and DD+, DTS , DTS-ES Matrix , DTS-ES Discrete. But no matter what setting I choose, DTSHD MA , True HD won’t work. The weirdest thing is that my friend as the exact same box , exact same build , with exact same kodi release as I am using kodi-17.0-Krypton_rc3-armeabi-v7a.apk. The only difference is that he has a different receiver, not sure which brand. On his setup , DTSHD MA and True HD also work. I doubt it simply something I have overlooked. When I revert to my PC all is fine. My system settings are in expert mode and I have toggled both DTS-HD and True-HD on. I have also tried the latest nightlies , but same behavior on all of the releases I tried. Thanks for your time, and all the work you guys put in this software.
In both cases I see : ERROR: AESinkAUDIOTRACK – Unable to create AudioTrack
