Hello everyone, i'm trying to get my Tv sony + receiver connected by optical cable to get 5.1/7.1 audio (DTS, DD, etc). the problem is that in any configuration (view the video settings next) the output from my TV to my Receiver is only PCM 2.0, but if i play the same video by DLNA or direct HDD connection i get the 7.1 dolby digital or true HD sound with no problems. in emby app i have the sound mode setting to AUTO (not downmix to stereo). the video info next: log attached in the post. thankks for you help.

I am using the original XBOX One with Emby theater, and I would like to know if it is normal for Emby to Transcode live tv feeds. I use a HD Homerun Prime as my TV source in Emby Server. Thanks.

I'm running Emby on an old 4 core Lynnfield Xeon processor. It's running as a guest in Proxmox VE, along with several other VMs (OpenMediaVault, Nextcloud, Minecraft, etc). I've been thinking about building a dedicated box just for Emby since I've spread the gospel such that I'm regularly having 2-3 users on at any given time and the poor machine just can't keep up if titles need to be transcoded. I'm thinking a box a separate server would hold the files, so the Emby hardware would just serve/trancode. I've seen folks talk about hardware acceleration and I'm curious how robust it is in Emby. Is there a max number of users that, say, Quicksync can serve? Are other users denied access, or can it serve two users with Quicksync and the rest with CPU transcode? Are there any distributions that have a recent enough version of ffmpeg to work with hardware encoding or am I looking at installing a third-party package or compiling ffmpeg myself? Is anyone using Arch Linux with hardware encoding on Intel or Nvidia hardware? Are there any plans for a Radeon/Ryzen hardware acceleration solution? Does anyone think I would be better off encoding my library to minimize trancoding instead of fitting hardware to the problem I'm facing? Sorry if I'm asking too many questions. Thanks, folks.

Hi, everyone! Having issue with syncing to android mobile. When i choose "original" quality, my files converted to Opus. But i expect FLAC, as an original file. Logs in attachment. What I'm doing wrong? Or may be some settings for transcoding for each type of quality? transcoding_flac_to_opus.txt
