Glad to see Plex Client can stream HD movies from my Synology NAS to Apple TV.

But there’s some decoding problem for certain types of audio tracks.

As shown on the screen shots, for some AAC Stereo or DTS5.1 tracks, only back ground sound track can be heard while track of voice was missing. Wired and hope this post can be seen and issue solved soon.

Thank you for the great work and looking forward to a better Plex.

If you don’t hear the center audio (i.e. speaking), that typically means you are playing surround sound on a system that doesn’t support surround sound, so those extra channels are lost. Check the Apple TV and your actual TV settings, to make sure surround settings are off.

Thank you for your reply. I will try. By the way, there is another question about playing back on cell phone (iPhone 13 pro max). When under same wifi, it works just fine but when playing remotely under wifi or 4G, it always reports no sufficient CPU power. Is there any way to set as direct streaming and decode on the phone? thanks!
