Hello,

It seems that new LG WebOS TVs cannot play DTS audio(i have a 2023 model, does not play DTS, while the old 2018 model plays DTS with no issues).

Now, when transcoding audio + serving subtitles it seems that Ples also transcodes the video (from 4k to 4k) which kills the server…

Is it possible to add the option to manually optimize just audio? Or make an update to transcode only audio with no video transcoding while serving subtitles)

Thank you

Server Version#: 1.32.8.7639  
Player Version#: LG WEB OS
