Multi Channel LPCM Output Through HDMI
« on: January 18, 2019, 11:52:31 AM »
Hi My name is Napapon
My old Q10, not the latest version, is having issues after so many years in service. I'm now searching for a replacement. My AV receiver is outdated already but it is still working. It only supports AC3 and DTS decoding as well as multi channel LPCM input so I'm looking for a media player that can decode DTS:MA for example or AAC multi channel and output the audio in multi channel LPCM format. The old Q10 is not capable of doing this, not sure about the new Q10 pro. I'm thinking of the Egreat A5 as a replacement since the A10 is too expensive for me, else I'm probably going for the new Q10 since I like the internal hdd slot. Thanks.

You should research the A5 carefully before purchase. It has it's advantages and disadvantages. http://en.egreatworld.com/comunity/index.php

At this moment in time we recommend the Zidoo products as a better balance of hardware/software.

Or Dinobot U5 Mini.  Based on the same HW but has  better FW than Himedia and is extremely versatile. Never tried MCH LPCM conversion as most players expect it to be used only for conversion to stereo output. Zidoo does the same as far as I know.No SPDIF on your AMP? That should work.
