m-joy 15 Posted November 11, 2016 Share Posted November 11, 2016 same here, now on plex. Emby does not play my 4k movies, no hd audio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-joy 15 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 By the way, i also get only PCM now for all my files. I do not know what happened, if it has to do with the 3.3 update on my shield or with the emby app update to the latest beta... Does anyone know how to get passthrough back?

mastrmind11 717 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 I updated to 3.3 yesterday and watched a movie with DTS-HD MA and my pre-amp was reporting it as such. I watched another movie with plain DTS and my pre-amp also reported it as such. I've not seen PCM on anything since the update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is strange since the android app does not even support HD audio formats (i thought)...? What video player are u using Edited November 16, 2016 by m-joy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m-joy 15 Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Okay SPMC, kodi and mx player work with audio passtru, also hd audio. The problem with mx player is that the refresh rate switch does not work. Using spmc or kodi is a litttle bit weird to me... The build in emby player sux, passthrough no more working for me, hd audio neither Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heuer 76 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Try Archos player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m-joy 15 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 Hi thank you. Archos player using passthrough methode 2 and enabling refresh rate switch is the only solution so far for me to have hd audio passtrough and refresh rate switching working with emby...

mata7 44 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 but the solution is not force to use external player, emby should fix the HD Audio bitstream problem, plex, kodi, smpc, Archos"never try it" but they all work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you will get is PCM is just as good as letting your receiver decode it. I am happily living in Plex for movie playback at home now. Only use Emby remotely for live TV.

mata7 44 Posted November 17, 2016 Share Posted November 17, 2016 (edited) i dont need luck, i use plex 2 for everyting, emby is collecting dust Edited November 17, 2016 by mata7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am happy that at least it is working now somehow. Emby is actually better then plex in my opinion, if they would get that android app to state of the art. Working on windows is also better with emby... Problem is that the more updates coming, the less things work lol. I remember that passtrhough was working some time ago. Anyway, I like the enthusiasm of emby team at least trying to get it done, this is why i ordered emby premiere now Maybe they take that money to buy an android shield TV for debugging Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ebr 14944 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I remember that passtrhough was working some time ago. Bitstreaming of the standard audio codecs still does work (AC3, DTS). HD Audio has never been supported in this app (yet). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
