I’m unable to get DTS-MA tracks to be recognised by my Marantz NR1607 receiver. This used to work just fine before I upgraded to Kodi 18 (I’m running 17.8-107 now). Although I’d like to blame Kodi 18, the kodi.log suggests it is doing the right thing:

Creating audio stream (codec id: 86020, channels: 8, sample rate: 48000, pass-through)

However my receiver sees this as incoming 7.1 PCM and thus fails to decode it. When I tell Kodi my receiver does not support DTS-MA (in the audio settings) and play the same movie the kodi.log shows

Creating audio stream (codec id: 86020, channels: 6, sample rate: 48000, pass-through)

and my receiver correctly decodes the DTS stream. Is it possible OSMC changes the codec id before it is sent out over the HDMI port? I tried different DTS-MA files all with the same result.

I verified my NR1607 still decodes DTS-MA by playing a Blu-ray with no problem at all.

130

Do you have a Vero 2 or a Vero 4K?

Vero 2 won’t give you HD audio out so assume you are using Vero 4K.

Are you on the staging repository? I made changes to AML-M8AUDIO.conf recently and had a similar issue, but turned out to be a problem with someone changing a setting on my AV.

Logs will help

Sam

131

Yes, I’m using a Vero 4K. I’m on Index of /osmc/osmc/download/dev/gmc-18 right now. Is that staging?
Logs are at https://paste.osmc.tv/awuzatutif

132

That’s not staging and you don’t seem to have a staging repo added; so not sure what the issue would be.

Give it a few days and see if things fix themselves (master can break sometimes).

@gmc You may want to double check patches from my branch and make sure they are in sync.

Sam

133

There is some good info on the audio issue here: HDMI - HD audio passthrough bug ?
I tried to play the demo tracks and they have the same problem. That gets Kodi off the hook I guess?

aplay -D 'hdmi:CARD=AMLM8AUDIO,DEV=0' -c8 -fs16_le -r192000 testi.dtshd.anssi1.ma-71-24.spdif

134

Not really.

DTS HD can’t be passed through via ALSA in this way.
You need amcodec.

The post you linked to is regarding Kodi Jarvis (v16), so quite outdated. It also doesn’t seem to be for an AML platform.

v18 is experimental and stuff can break. If you want stability stick with OSMC’s stable releases.

135

I think it might be due to vero3-055-add-hd-audio-and-multichannel-pcm.patch missing. Will be included in the next nightly. (And a few others I’ve missed)

I upgraded my Vero4K from stock to 17.8-109 to try out the Netflix and Amazon Plugins but it seems like the AddonManager is broken at the moment. Is this a known issue?

When I try to add the repository I get:

ERROR: CAddonMgr: failed to unload repository.netflix
ERROR: CAddonInstallJob[repository.netflix]: failed to unload addon.

When I try to add the netflix plugin directly I get basically the same error message:

ERROR: CAddonMgr: failed to unload plugin.video.netflix
ERROR: CAddonInstallJob[plugin.video.netflix]: failed to unload addon.
138

I’ll look into this. Also getting the same error on 108 and 109. (And today’s 110 version)

Update: Its a known issue with Kodi. Addons in general have been broken for the past few days. Same issues reported on LibreELEC threads.
