Could you take a look.

Thx and best regards

Thanks for providing those logs. After a quick investigation, I think it might be related to some issues we’ve fixed in latest 8.5 beta that you can find Android (mobile) beta release notes Is there any chance you could give it a go and see if it fixes your issue?
Thanks in advance

@jesusmc
Will try when back from work and report you

@jesusmc
just gave it a try with the new beta

had to deactivate Resolution and Framerate switching for having correct aspect ratio with
PAL playback.
Ac3 passthrough (Spdif) works.

best regards
