I have an RBox Pro that was gifted to me and I was trying to see if it would passthrough a few audio streams with ATMOS and I couldn't get it to work. I'm running Kodi Kryton 17.6.
I tested some ATMOS test files from Dolby and my Denon AVR S920W recognizes the ATMOS stream on those files except for my movie files.
audio is set as pass through on Kodi along with AC3, DTS, etc. What is the issue? is it a firmware issue with this box? What can I do to make HD passthrough work properly?
I check the media info for the dolby atmos test file and the movie rips attached below.
My AVR does not recognize the first audio stream
and the second audio stream is the received to the AVR as PCM 2 channel.
