Hello, Could audio codec detection be improved for Emby Server? The below is Atmos MediaInfo taken from Minions: Audio #1 ID : 2 Format : MLP FBA 16-ch Format/Info : Meridian Lossless Packing FBA with 16-channel presentation Commercial name : Dolby TrueHD with Dolby Atmos Codec ID : A_TRUEHD Duration : 1 h 30 min Bit rate mode : Variable Bit rate : 5 262 kb/s Maximum bit rate : 7 269 kb/s Channel(s) : 8 channels Channel layout : L R C LFE Ls Rs Lb Rb Sampling rate : 48.0 kHz Frame rate : 1 200.000 FPS (40 SPF) Compression mode : Lossless Stream size : 3.34 GiB (14%) Title : English - Dolby Atmos 7.1 Language : English Default : Yes Forced : No Number of dynamic objects : 11 Bed channel count : 1 channel Bed channel configuration : LFE When displayed in Emby, there is no mention of Dolby Atmos, only TRUEHD The below is DTS-X MediaInfo taken from Despicable Me 3: Audio #1 ID : 2 Format : DTS XLL X Format/Info : Digital Theater Systems Commercial name : DTS-HD Master Audio Codec ID : A_DTS Duration : 1 h 29 min Bit rate mode : Variable Bit rate : 3 595 kb/s Channel(s) : 8 channels Channel(s)_Original : Object Based Channel layout : Object Based Sampling rate : 48.0 kHz Frame rate : 93.750 FPS (512 SPF) Bit depth : 24 bits Stream size : 2.25 GiB (12%) Title : English - DTS-X 7.1 Language : English Default : Yes Forced : No When displayed in Emby, there is no mention of DTS-X, only DTS The below is DTS-HD MA MediaInfo taken from Forgetting Sarah Marshall: Audio #1 ID : 2 Format : DTS XLL Format/Info : Digital Theater Systems Commercial name : DTS-HD Master Audio Codec ID : A_DTS Duration : 1 h 57 min Bit rate mode : Variable Bit rate : 3 927 kb/s Channel(s) : 6 channels Channel layout : C L R Ls Rs LFE Sampling rate : 48.0 kHz Frame rate : 93.750 FPS (512 SPF) Bit depth : 24 bits Compression mode : Lossless Stream size : 3.23 GiB (16%) Title : DTS-HD MA 5.1 English Language : English Default : Yes Forced : No When displayed in Emby, there is no mention of DTS-HD MA, only DTS Dolby Atmos, DTS-X and DTS-HD MA as well as other DTS codecs (eg.

It's been a while since I've posted in the forums (personal issues). Just installed Emby Theater 2.0 and have to say it's just so smooth and easy to use and the biggest plus it will allow me to move over from Emby Classic and WMC. The only one negative I have is I can't seem to get any of my movies to bitstream DTS-HD or TrueHD. I get all these from Emby Classic in WMC (TMT5 as external player) and also MPC-HD via the LAV filter. I use a mixutre of fileformats, Bluray folder rips and MKV and these are absolutely fine. My HTPC is connected via the HDMI through a AMD Radeon HD 7800 to a Pioneer VSX1122k and bitstreams audio absolutley fine with the players I mentioned, but Emby Theater is a no go. So basically, can anyone point me in the right direction?
