My setup:
Rasplex -> HDMI -> Samsung TV -> Optical -> Harman Kardon 5.1 reciever
I have read many things already, tried alot but none worked. If i play a 5.1 demo test video directly from my tv, by the file browser, the 5.1 works! I can see on my receiver that it gets dolby digital ect.
When i play the same file on my rasplex the 5.1 wont work. I only get sound with the setting on 2.0 channel.
If i change it to 5.1, its stil stereo, but messed up, so i dont here the voices.
Iv tried turning on the passtrue , within that all the settings, but still no luck…
If i ssh with tvservice -a i get only: PCM supported: Max channels: 2, Max samplerate: 48kHz, Max samplesize 24 bits.
Also on my tv the optical out settings, i can see PCM / Dolby Digital and DTS. Also when i disable the passtrue in rasplex, the Dolby Digital en DTS will disapear.
I dont get why ssh is still showing me only the PCM 2.0 , whilest my receiver is a 5.1, and is working fine directly of tv
