No multi-channel FLAC for music files on Plex Android TV clients (Nvidia Shield, Amazon Fire devices, Sony TVs, etc). I found a [post](https://forums.plex.tv/t/advice-on-plex-player/791275/6) from May where I tested it. I’m not aware of any changes. A quick forum search did not turn up anything, and nothing is mentioned in the [announcement thread](https://forums.plex.tv/t/plex-for-android/29115/446).

Plex HTPC on Windows 10 seems to support multi-channel FLAC music files. See [this post](https://forums.plex.tv/t/plex-htpc-has-lost-multi-channel-music-playback-ability-vs-the-old-windows-app/804501) from August.

There is also the [Plexamp](https://plexamp.com/) audio player. I’ve never used it, so not sure how it handles multi-channel FLAC. The Android app is only for mobile devices (Google won’t download it to my Shield). Other platforms might be an option.
