I’ve looked through this forum and product descriptions, and I couldn’t fine a definitive answer as to what the xbox one app does with hd audio streams. Based on the info I found, it appears it forces the server to transcode dts to ac3 (which sucks, because it takes a lossy codec, and re encodes to another lossy codec, causing even more degradation). I assume it does the same with hd audio codecs, but can anyone confirm?
I asked this in the firetv forum as well (and never got an answer), but why in the world can’t plex transcode to lpcm for the codecs the player doesn’t support natively. Is plex just not capable of lossless audio on platforms other than PC?
