Dolby Digital cutting out on TVonline4

[crassus]

Yes, I would have liked to know more info but I'll take what I can get. I highly value good customer support so I'm hoping they continue to push ahead and do what they need to do.

Hey asft,

From reading many posts, we're getting some good traction on knocking issues down with Avov. Maybe you can use your influence on fixing some of these issues that I've already contacted them on:
1. Dolby Digital cutting out
2. Can't set static IP
3. Audio section settings won't stay set

From my perspective, item #1 is top priority. I'm working around #2 and #3. Thank you for your help!

Its definitely related to something with andriod as this also happens to my MXQ pro with S905 chip. So it might not be an avov thing might even be a problem with kodi it's self.

Not real sure on what could be culprit. My Nvidia shield runs Kodi and SPMC with no issue (also has Android 6 loaded). My AFTV just runs Kodi with no issue as well. I did install SPMC on TVonline4 and it made no difference as I still had the DD cutout issue.

Nvidia has correct andriod media codec API, while amlogic uses there own amcodec video API from my understanding Kodi 17 will be dropping support for amlogic video codec (it will still work) but they are recommending amlogic to start using the correct API and this could be where the problem is.

It's probably more an Amlogic hardware and firmware problem then an Avov problem. as all my amlogic chipsets have DD abd DTS passthrough problem. Only thing we can hope for is Avov can convince amlogic to start using the correct API.

Thanks for the education on that....do u happen to know what Amazon Fire TV uses? It passes DD just fine, no glitches at all.
