I had been using the official client for sometime, but all the sudden it decided to not take the keyboard as an input and only let me use the mouse. šŸ˜• So I am considering switching to OpenPHT, converting my mediaPC to xubuntu so it can double as a retro gaming rig, home theater, and a few other items. On Linux will OpenPHT support bitstreaming and the higher end audio codecs, such os Dolby True HD, Atmos and so on. ---

Iā€™m not running a Ubuntu rig, but OpenPHT usually will support it if the hardware devices/drivers support it. For example, Odroid C2, Raspberry Pi, and WeTek Hub are all Linux releases and support bit streaming to various levels. ---
