Chromecast issue for video with flac audio track


Recommended Posts

Posted

I tried both latest stable 3.3.1.0 and beta 3.3.1.18

 

All videos with flac audio track fail to be played using chromecast. 

 

I saw somewhere that chromecast has dropped support for aac 5.1 media, when a video with flac audio gets transcoded to chromecast, emby is converting flac to aac 5.1. 

When I try another video with DTS MA track, emby transcodes audio to aac stereo. 

 

Is this because emby have wrong transcoding profile for flac audio track?
