Like the OP I too am having issues with the audio playback. The best I can get is stereo when trying to playback AC3 or DTS encodes. I am running X.org v10.14.7.R33 and FFmpeg v3.3.2.r11. I also use Kodi 17.6. It plays back all encodes even h265 without issue. I was hoping to replace Kodi with Plex as my main media player on the nas but it's not working out.
Can you please look at my logs to see if this will work?
I double checked my settings and changed the device to "alsa" I also disabled "Sound Feedback" I still only get stereo playback. Here is the updated logs with edid info. Thank-you for your help!father.mande wrote:Hi,
In log I don't see any trace of :
Pass-through enable in PMP
EDID extended information on sound capabilities in Xorg ??? (EDID is not only for screen resolution and frequency)
Please verify PMP configuration (audio configuration help in Plex.tv site is complete)
https://support.plex.tv/articles/212072 ... ia-player/
verify also HOW your sound cards are view by the Linux kernel (ADM)
open a terminal root / your password
cd /proc/asound
... here some folder named card0 (or multiple ... cardn)
... ... in asound you have lot of information on hardware (real)
... in card0 search for files like eld\#2.x ... it's the extended EDID receive by ADM from your screen / tv / receiver
ex. mine it's a simple screen so only stereo look likeNormally for you ... you must see your receiver name and the correct channel and speakers supported ...Code: Select all

If all seem correct ... and nothing change ... don't hesitate to post in Plex Media Player forum with your receiver the plexmediaplayer.conf, the plexmediaplayer.log and the eld file for ex.
... even officially no Linux version is provide ... the code of PMP2 use for APKG is 100% without modification the code proposed by Plex.tv team

I don't immediately see something wrong ...Code: Select all
"device": "alsa/hdmi:CARD=PCH,DEV=0",
BUT with specialist knowing the code so able to have a complete understand of the plexmediaplayer.log contents ...Yes they did. The update to FFmpeg v3.3.2.r13 and X.org v10.14.7.r35 kills playback of all multichannel playback. I did an update to the web browser to v1.0.0.r5 to enable Amazon Video to work and it forced the new X.org to install. That killed any playback of stereo music files in Kodi. I installed PMP2 v2.80 to see if my library would play but got no sound from mp3 files also. I had to uninstall X.org and all associated apps and reinstall v10.14.7.r33. I also uninstalled then reinstalled FFmpeg v3.3.2.r11 just in case the newer version of X.org affected it. I reinstalled Kodi and did a restore from backup and for whatever reason it works better then before all this happened. It sure is puzzling as to why PMP2 is not cooperating. I have a Roku3 connected to the same AVR and it plays back everything correctly but I like the GUI on the PMP2 better.Last, seem that Asustor have changed (removed) some support for DTS / Dolby ... no idea where ... so perhaps this impact the audio settings ... even if user isewise seem to succeed to use pass-through on same model ...
