Title: Kodi 5.1 audio passthrough problem
Post by: mrklown on October 15, 2015, 11:59:12 PM

Hello.  Tried Kodi for first time and when I enable audio passthrough for DD 5.1 or DTS 5.1 as soon as video starts there's brief output of static to the speakers then no sound (video plays fine).  If I stop playback and revert setting to disable passthrough, still no audio (including GUI sounds).  If I exit Kodi and use HiMediaPlayer, audio is restored and passthrough works fine.  Audio connection is SPDIF to Denon receiver and Q10 sound settings are: HDMI Output 'Close', SPDIF Output 'RAW', HBR Degrade Output 'Auto'.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

For SPDIF I would strongly recommend installing the Himediawrapper. SPDIF in Kodi Android is buggy (on the Kodi side).
