DTS-HD HRA 7.1

[Audiomixer 374]

I’m running the latest server on synology (4.5.0.50) and the latest emby app (1.8.29g) on a Nvidia Shield pro 2019 and have DTS and DTS-HD pass through enabled. I have a file that has the audio as DTS-HD HRA 7.1 and sample rate of 48,000 hz. On playback, my denon x4500 shows only DTS while on plex and Kodi (with emby plug-in) my denon shows DTS-HD Hi Res. All other DTS-HD type files play normally.

Is emby expected to play DTS-HD HRA 7.1?

Hi.  Can you provide us a sample item with this type of audio for testing?

[Audiomixer 374]

How do I get a sample to you?

[FrostByte 5392]

If your file is mkv you can use something like mkvtoolnix to split the file so you can post a small sample on a share site and then PM ebr the link

[Audiomixer 374]

Frostbyte thanks for that information.

clip posted and ebr PM’ed with link to file.

There are a few official demo files here of DTS HRA -

Orchestra Short (Lossless) - https://we.tl/YZfyiSsLmH

SFX Short (Lossless) - https://we.tl/l740VJ8GuK

I concur with the OP - these play on my Emby > Shield > Denon but only the DTS Core - as verified by the Denon. 

[FrostByte 5392]

Test file sounds like DTS 5.1 core using ATV, but my system only indicates Atmos or DTS:X so I can't say 100%.  

 

Audiomixer have you tried with the mobile app on the Shield?  It has the new version of Exoplayer

This one? It will not install.

No, new Exoplayer is in beta version.  You can manually install the apk from the first post

Both can be on your Shield at the same time

No, this one:

No change with DTS-HD HRA 7.1. Still shows as DTS with the 3.1.24 test app.

[FrostByte 5392]

You could try one more thing if you want.  Change the settings in ATV to use external player and choose the VLC app on your Shield when you click Play.  I would, but my receiver only displays the audio codec if it's object based (DTS:X or Atmos).  Just to see if it works

 

I'm guessing that's you on the Shield forum

Tried that with both Kodi and VLC as emby external player.  Both show DTS-HD Hi Res with that file.

Yup, that be me.  

[FrostByte 5392]

Ok, then it sounds like it's definitely Exoplayer if it works as an external player.  Luke is working on an Emby version of Exoplayer to fix some of the shortcomings of the released version,

I believe that's only being quoted as the title of the thread is still 3.1.24.

Perhaps rename the thread.

Yea probably right, just want to be certain.

[Audiomixer 374]

This has been addressed and works with beta 1.8.36g.

[Luke 42077]

Thanks for the feedback.

Please play the item for just a few seconds and then send a log from the app.

Thanks.

[CyberPoison 33]

Hi I send the the logs just now,  from the emby Android TV app, it's 08:53 gmt +1 (Paris Time), The movie is Tron: Legacy (2010) (Tron: L'héritage in French) the user is Screamfox 

The issue is No sound in DTS-HD HRA 7.1 

there is some seconds where I changed for the other codec (The movie have two audio tracks one in MA and other in HRA as you can see the logs the HRA is not working when MA is working.) 

 

Kind regards
