Audio configuration not showing

Version 4.114.3

there used to be an option to change sound device or channels like 5.1 or 7.1. Now its gone
I have some movies that’s 7.1 but when I play it shows 5.1 on my receiver.. I have quality set at original and maximum there is no limit in remote. The movie audio is (HE-AAC 7.1). any idea how to play this correctly so it may show 7.1?

Which Plex client are you using?

Windows Plex server

Which client?

Plex Web, Plex Desktop, Plex app on a smart tv, Plex app on a streaming stick?

Edit:

Plex Web does not support multi-channel audio.

Use Plex Desktop (download, documentation) or Plex HTPC (download, documentation) instead.

In Plex Desktop for Windows:

  1. Settings → Plex for Windows → Player + Show Advanced
  2. Change the Audio Device from Auto Select to the desired device.
  3. You will then see additional options regarding output device, channels, etc.
