lorac 100 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Is DTS passthrough supported? From what I can read on the ROKU forums it seems like it should work. I have the ROKU connected to a receiver, and enabled surround sound in the settings. However, all I get is stereo sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) What is the does the media info say for that file? Does the ROKU say the file is being transcoded? Edited September 21, 2014 by Happy2Play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorac 100 Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 The Roku doesn't show or do anything apart from play the file. I tried several. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8281 Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 When you arrow down while playing media it should tell you if it is Direct or Transcoding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostByte 5049 Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Do you have the Roku settings on stereo, or Surround? On the Roku forums it says if you have it set to stereo it will transcod, otherwise it should passthrough DTS. You can also set your bitrate higher in the MB app if you have DTS-HD and have files with a bitrate up to 20mbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
