hello...in menu of recevier you must select out audio AMP....be careful NOT AMP+TV
in meniu of Himedia hdmi raw 7.1
Hi,
is there a problem to decode Dolby TrueHD in MKV container?
1) Need_For_Speed.mkv (DTS Master Audio, English, 7.1 channels, 24 bits, 48kHz) - it works -> LINEAR PCM [2/0]
2) Mission_Impossible_-_Ghost_Protocol.mkv (TrueHD, English, 7.1 channels, 48kHz) - it doesn't work - no audio
3) Catwoman.m2ts (TrueHD/AC3, English, 5.1 channels, 48kHz, dialnorm: -27dB) - it works -> LINEAR PCM [2/0]
4) John_Wick.m2ts (TrueHD/AC3 (Atmos), English, 7.1 channels, 48kHz) - it works -> LINEAR PCM [2/0]
As far as I know it is not possible to acheive 3/2.1 (6 channels) or 3/4.1 (8 channels) PCM, but what about at least a stereo?
It's a little mess in the settings about audio bitstream/decoding, but this is another discussion.
Regards
Himedia say that decode to 2 channel PCM is not supported for True-HD audio tracks. It is supported when there is also an AC3 track present. This is on a hardware level so is unlikely to be fixed/changed. I don't think 1.0.8 would be any different to other firmwares in this respect.
They also say that multi-channel LPCM is supported, but I'm not sure. I will test later and would appreciate any testing anyone reading this would like to do. Settings would be HDMI Output 'LPCM'. Whether or not the setting for HBR Ouput matters or not before it's greyed needs testing.

My test results
It took me hour and half to test
what do you mean with DTS-HD MA (5/2.1) and Dolby TrueHD (3/4.1)?
with RAW and RAW7.1 i never have problem, A/V reciver show 7.1 DTS-HD MA/Dolby TrueHD.
which file do you have tested? this?

Hi,i have an Logitech Z 906 speaker system , he cannot decode TrueHD...he can only DTS.What shall i do in order to hear the sound?
What container do you use for your movies - MKV, M2TS, TS or directly Bluray ISO?hi airsoft,Bluray ISO..that's why I've buy the Q5 4k3D!Hi,i have an Logitech Z 906 speaker system , he cannot decode TrueHD...he can only DTS.What shall i do in order to hear the sound?
What container do you use for your movies - MKV, M2TS, TS or directly Bluray ISO?oooh...I just saw...that's occure also by the MKV's...for example Terminator Genisys....but these is an Atmos....I don't have so much expectations from my LogitechHi,i have an Logitech Z 906 speaker system , he cannot decode TrueHD...he can only DTS.What shall i do in order to hear the sound?

perhaps futeko have a solution
That's why I'm asking :)
If you don't use MKV for Dolby TrueHD or Dolby Atmos you can choose PCM decoding from the options of your player and
your Logitech will receive a compatible audio.
if it were so simple ..i knew it...but don't work
my settings : HDMI=close ; SPDIF output=LPCM ; HBR output=auto; and I've tried all the combinations :-[

or...what a container does mean?
sorry i'm "green" about....
thank's for advise,but I'm an a outlooker(spectator) not an "movie editor"
I've buy the Q5 to enjoy the movies not to edit them!!!!
so easy...buy it for me and will be easy
You will get 2 channel PCM stereo from ISOs with any audio format (True-HD, DTS-HD, AC3, DTS etc).Like I said,unfortunately doesn't work
This will be the best you'll do with True-HD and the Logitech Z 906.
The Q5/Q10 (and in fact all other Android boxes) cannot decode True-HD and output it as 5.1 DTS (you say the Logitech Z 906 can only decode 5.1 DTS).

You mean in best case MKV with Dolby TrueHD will be decoded to stereo PCM in future software release?
Seems a hardware(chipset) limitation :(
Better this than nothing.

I don't mean that. I don't honestly know what best case is. Himedia have been made aware of the problem and are looking at what they can do.
