Tizen Audio passthrough on Tizen App

[MrMind 2]

Is it possible to passthrough DTS/TrueHD/any audio to soundbar using Emby Tizen App?

My TV is Samsung KS7000 (KS8000 in US), server version 3.2.33.0, Tizen app version 1.0.25

Yea pretty much everything except for TrueHD.

OK, thanks for fast reply. I was looking for any settings to enable/disable this. There's no "Audio" tab on Emby App on my TV. Is passthrough enabled by default?

Why TrueHD passthrough isn't possible?

[Luke 38848]

Yes it's by default. The TV's do not support TrueHD.

[MrMind 2]

Yes, my TV doesn't support TrueHD but if I buy a soundbar with TrueHD hardware decoding how can I make use of it?

[Luke 38848]

I don't believe there's anyway to get the audio to the soundbar. It doesn't support passing through truehd. it will need audio transcoding on the server.

Thanks for explanation. I would like to avoid unnecessary transcoding and keep server load as low as possible. I will try to install Emby Theater for Windows on my HTPC instead of using Tizen App.
