RanmaCanada 345 Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Yes it seems the new TCL TV's have a serious issue with ATMOS. Installed Emby up a friends new TV on the weekend and ATMOS files are all garbled. I don't know if this is an Emby problem, but as someone stated that Jellyfin works fine, it quite possibly could be. Sadly I can't get a playback log as they are about as smart with tech as a politician is with keeping their promises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks ! Sure, this happens to virtually every file I own, so i have a few thousand you can play with, is there somewhere you would like them uploaded? Please note the same files work fine on other TV's and clients, and also on the TCL C835 via Jellyfin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaise 304 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Off topic a bit - After a reasonable investment in this TV, I am considering adding the jellyfin docker to my setup. I use docker containers with their own IP addresses, so no port conflict, what issues may I have if I point jellyfin at the same emby libraries. Metadata images etc are stored in the same media folders. Will they get messed up ? Further, if this is do-able - as some of you are doing here, then do you have a way to keep the play states in sync ? Im not trying to replace emby here - just trying to keep the wife happy - who does not understand why she has to flip the audi setting depending on what she has to watch.

Trevor68 48 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 Yup, I have both sharing and saving to the same media folders. I use Trak.TV plugin on both to keep them in sync. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be removed once the TCL is playing properly with Emby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaise 304 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 I can confirm no issue on jellyfin - whatever they have setup in the thing they call 'direct' in their playback audio is playing all my stuff that emby cant on auto, and also playing the stuff that locks up when emby is set to downmix to 5.1. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor68 48 Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Seems like this is no longer specific to TCL, other TV's like hisense have the same issues with high bitrate as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papugo1980 4 Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 The fact remains that this problem has been there for 6 months or more and unfortunately we still can't figure out how to solve it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilpig 1 Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 I am having this same issue with the emby app on my TCL 65q7 I just got. Stuttering video and messed up audio on high bitrate files. Some other ones aren't loading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vaise 304 Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I’m hoping when the latest beta goes available in the google play store (.88), that all the issues are resolved….. that’s what I’m hoping for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you know this issue is on Hisense as well and a couple of us tried .88 with NO improvement, maybe TCL will have better results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papugo1980 4 Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 is there anything you can do to convert various dolby audios to (AAC 384 kbps)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this directed to emby support? As that is not a solution for media owners with thousands if not tens of thousands of files that play fine with jellyfin. The issue is not the media.
