I have a movie with AC3 5.1 that's plays fine on a tablet. But if i I connect (very cheap) Bluetooth headphones and try to play that same movie it fails and says there was an issue etc. Is this a bug? Is it just that the headphones can't handle the audio codec, and better quality ones would? Would love some insight. Thanks!

Hi good day, I am running Emby in a container on Synology and it is working flawlessly. Recently I discovered something very strange with transcoding of DTS-HD MA/TrueHD when viewing a video in CCWGTV (Chromecast with GoogleTV). The movie has 2 audio streams: DTS-HD MA and AC3 5.1. If I start the video with the default audio DTS-HD MA, it gets transcoded correctly in Emby for AndroidTV if I set the option "Transcode incompatible audio to AC3". If I switched the audio to AC3 while playing, it is direct-playing. But when I switched the audio back to DTS-HD MA, it is still direct-playing the audio instead of transcoding it. This is very strange. I also tried the standard Android version (not for Android TV), DTS-HD MA is not getting transcoded at all! My SONOS Playbar does not support DTS anyway so Emby client should trigger the transcoding to AC3. Using the standard Android version on the Android tablet it is behaving correctly: switching AC3 => DTS-HD MA => audio gets transcoded. I am running Emby client on CCWGTV and the following versions: Emby server: 4.8.3.0 Emby Client: Emby for Android TV 2.1.10g Emby Client: Android Emby 3.3.77 I have attached server log from Emby. Please let me know what else do you need to troubleshoot this issue.

I installed emby. connected to my server. tried a few different movies and it worked fine. I added options like Tune In radio and others, and now I cannot see any movies or options on my home screen. All I see is HOME NEXT UP FAVORITES UPCOMING. I can access MANAGE SERVER, INBOX, et al, but I don't see the MY MEDIA boxes, MOVIES, etc. I installed ony Samsung Android phone and it works fine. Reinstalled EMBY on tablet; same results; deleted all files with file manager; same results. What next?
