hotsauce 1 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 (edited) Hi, It's been a long time since i have used Emby, but i'm thinking of switching from Plex (again) The reason is that i'we bought a chromecast and hooked it up to my projector and stereo amp (via an HDMI/SPDIF splitter) and my stereo amp well.. only does stereo. Is it possible to set a profile or have a setting that forces downmixing of 5.1 (or whatever) to a stereo format only for chromecast in Emby? If so then count me in as a premium menber today! - hotsauce Edited April 6, 2018 by hotsauce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey so, I’m not quite sure if this counts, but I use the app on my phone to cast to my tv and whenever it plays 5.1+ on my 2.1 setup, the dialogue and whatnot is super quiet. And there’s no option on the app or screen to downmix the audio. I use the iOS app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 32468 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 @kilage is the chromecast just plugged right into the TV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
