Shield Transcoding DTS audio

We should be giving you superior sound by sending DD to your soundbar instead of software decoded PCM.

 

We are also only converting the audio so there is no video transcoding going on and should not have much of an impact on your server.

@ It is odd though. When plex reports direct play, there is absolutely no transcoding happening server side. Not even audio. Server CPU is flat. I can't say what's happening on the client. Honestly, I don't mind emby needing to transcode the audio (very little resources needed for that), if that audio transcode didn't also affect the video (as described in this post). I also attached a diagram of my system. I'm fairly certain the cables are 6' HDMI 2.0. If you can think of a better way to set up the system, I'm all ears.
