downmix 5.1 to 2.0 in DLNA profiles

[cucoops 0]

Hi. I need to downmix 5.1 to 2.0 audio for AC3filter in DLNA profiles.

 

I got smart Samsung UE32F6800 and stereo receiver by optics. When I set PCM out in Samsung 5.1 audio content plays very quiet. I need to downmix 5.1 to 2.0 only in Samsung profile (there are others where it is not necessary). How would I do it?

If you don't have a Custom Samsung profile already you will want to copy the one from C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-Server\config\dlna\system to C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\MediaBrowser-Server\config\dlna\user then open xml in notepad and change the value from 6 to 2. 

 

    <CodecProfile type="VideoAudio" codec="ac3,wmav2,dca,aac,mp3">

      <Conditions>

        <ProfileCondition condition="LessThanEqual" property="AudioChannels" value="6" isRequired="true" />

      </Conditions>

    </CodecProfile>

Or create another codec profile condition just for ac3, and remove ac3 from the other condition.

    <CodecProfile type="VideoAudio" codec="ac3">

      <Conditions>

        <ProfileCondition condition="LessThanEqual" property="AudioChannels" value="2" isRequired="true" />

      </Conditions>

    </CodecProfile>

Thank you very much. But the volume is not increased. I suspect that my device and profile are not connected. I did not do it directly. I have two smart devices in the list. One of them is described as Samsung TV and other - DLNA. can u help me again?

 

P.S. In playback list I found downmix compensation (1 to 3). what's this?

I changed the folder view in profile. no changes in client. I think the process is controlled by default profile (Samsung Smart TV). Samsung 2.0 - modified profile

Avoid the optic audio cable and if your receiver supports it, connect an HDMI cable from the Samsung ARC-HDMI connection to your receiver ARC-HDMI connection. The ARC (Audio Return Channel) will foreward the sound that goes to your TV via DLNA directly to your receiver. That way, your receiver can do what it is designed to..
