Hi,
i updated from a good old 2.x version of wasser firmware but now i got no hdmi passthrough for DTS/AC3.
Could somone please tell me what i need to do to get sound working ?
i set in normal android settings to hdmi bitsream audio device and in rkmc i enabled passthrough. Or is some other mediacenter like spmc or kodi better ?
bets regards,
Thomas

Or wait for Nougat firmware that will be released for some RK3288 devices in a few weeks.
There are audio bugs in early RK3288 Marshmallow firmware that was only fixed in *L/M Marshmallow versions from Dec-Feb 2017.
You can check the build.prop file to see the build info, Marshmallow version and the letter it ends in.
I think it will be 'K'.

Do you know what version of wasser 4.x was the latest working for hdmi passthrough ?
is it possible to find out without flashing the image and watch the build.prop ?
The only way is to test and flash all of them or go back to Lollipop and then know for sure it will work.

ok thanx
edit:
with wasser 3.0.6 i have problems with stuttering in playback and then switching audio from dolby digital to stereo without sound
i think the best way is to throw this crappy hw away and buy some better new one with better fw support for high quality audio in kodiLast edited by FunThomas; 05-22-2017, 12:52.

Hi
So finally I upgraded my old original firmware to this one (4.0.11)
- My config: Beelink R89 to Yamaha RX-677 with 5.1 speakers and 4K low-end TV (TCL), ethernet on CPL
- New Kodi to replace my old XBMC, so nice!
- But no passthrough through HDMI anymore :-(
- I purchased a SPDIF optical cable and got 5.1 back. Config needed: passthrough SPDIF in Android setup, Kodi audio: 2.0, passthrough AC3, DTS and transcode
- So now AC3, DTS and AAC any channel work with expected channels
- Some glitches: screen goes black 3 seconds and back. Solved by removing : "adapt sync etc." (?)
But good experience overall! Thanks Wasser.
