AtlasRedux 2 Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 (edited) I've got a Samsung HW-Q960A soundbar setup. Side speaker audio is played on the rear speakers. This is extremely wrong. Windows plays them correctly. YouTube app on the TV plays them correctly. EVERYTHING else plays them correctly, except Emby, which plays side speaker output on rears. I used this to test Windows VS Emby: Downloads Page - Demolandia Edited August 25, 2023 by AtlasRedux Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke 37067 Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 OK so you're playing the truehd track. As a test, if you select one of the ac3 tracks, how does that compare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbjtech 4265 Posted August 28, 2023 Share Posted August 28, 2023 ffmpeg does not support 7.1 remuxing - thus it converts the 7.1 THD to 5.1 AC3/EAC3 - thus playing from your rears. The direct play 7.1 (EAC3) will use the sides - as would Emby if playing THD 7.1 (with no ffmpeg) via an AVR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
