psychedelicu 1 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 I have the exact same issue on my Tizen tv. Audio is DTS, video is direct play, but the audio is transcoded to ac3. I had the se issue with jellyfin too, and it seems that this issue persist for years and is nothing new on forums. Any fix for this? @SamES Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrostByte 5049 Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 (edited) There is no fix for Samsung apps transcoding DTS. Samsung TVs haven't supported DTS since 2017. There should be a chart in your user's manual like in the link below. That is a list of all audio codecs your TV supports. Anything else will need to be transcoded. https://developer.samsung.com/smarttv/develop/specifications/media-specifications/2023-tv-video-specifications.html For best results always preselect a compatible audio codec if available. Otherwise, you can see buffering which gets worse the higher the bitrate of the input. Edited March 6 by FrostByte 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's either Samsung being extremly stubborn or maybe some tie in with the HDR10+ Alliance that is restricting them from supporting it .. A shame, as it's the end consumer that ultimately suffers when they find out their shiny new Samsung won't play mainstream audio and video formats... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This can work for, there is also a batch version if you have a lot of files 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
