Android TV Strange issue with media. Plays in English regardless of audio track selected. (Works fine in Browser)

[Mkilbride 86]

So I have a NVIDIA Shield.

 

For reference, this is the media information:

 

 

 

 

 

It has two tracks. English and Japanese. My default audio is English.  In Browser, it plays properly. Both audio tracks.

 

However, on my NVIDIA Shield, I only get English audio. Regardless of which track I select...and the file is Direct Playing. I'm curious as to what is going on? No combination on my NVIDIA SHield(Android TV), got it to play anything but English.

Sounds a lot like the issue I had here: https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/79619-tv-1758g-audio-choice-suddenly-not-taken-into-account/page-2

Probably a bug related to the weird audio codec.

 

What Android TV app version are you running?

If you force it to transcode, do the track selections work?

[Mkilbride 86]

Yeah. If I transcode, it works.

 

I tried it in Jellyfin; it direct played correctly. Same with Plex.

Can you please play this item for just a few seconds, try to switch tracks and then stop and send the log from the app?

 

Thanks.

Or, if you could PM me a link to this exact media file, I can investigate it myself.

 

Thanks.

Okay, I was able to get your sample (thanks) and this should be fixed in the next release/beta.

 

Thanks.

Thank you.
