TrueHD silent audio, I finally found a solution

Plex Players Gaming Consoles

I have some ripped BD movies in a mkv container.
The XBOX Plex client does passthrough TrueHD audio of half the files I have. Analysing the difference among them using MediaInfo, I found out that in the ones which worked, the TrueHD audio track was always the first ID in the audio track list.
So, using MKVToolNix I simply switched the order of the audio tracks, ensuring TrueHD track went first always. And to my surprise it WORKED! Passthrough happened flawlessly with every audio track.

All I need the client to have now is support for native image-based subs.

I hope it helps.

THANK YOU!

Can confirm this fixed the issue for me. I did the same and made the TrueHD track first on the list and it worked straight away.
