Up until recently the Plex player had been direct playing EAC3 streams on this device. No hardware was changed. My PMS was at 1.29.2.6364 until I updated to latest a couple of weeks ago—since then I’ve started noticing this transcode behavior.
I have nothing against OPUS, but the transcode is causing playback to be interrupted with buffering. I’ve tried toggling between audio passthrough options but none of them makes a difference.
