No audio streams - Kodi 17.4 VNSI / VDR backend on Ubuntu 16.04 - sh33p - 2017-10-14
Kodi Endpoints:
Asus CBOX LE8.1.2 (kodi 17.4) / also tested on LE8.0.2 - passtrought audio
RPI3 LE8.1.2
DVB-T2 stick: Mygica T230C usb (Silicon Labs Si2168)
Ubuntu: 16.04 LTS
Kernel: 4.13.6-041306-generic (manually upgraded to support Mygica t230c usb stick)
Backend versions and the issue:
VDR 2.2.0/VNSI from main ubuntu repo - DVB-T channels are streamable and audio is working / T2 channels are not streamable from Kodi
VDR 2.2.0/VNSI from ppa:yavdr/unstable-vdr - DVB-T channels are streamable - no audio streams / T2 channels are not streamable from Kodi
VDR 2.3.1/VNSI 1.5.1 from ppa:aap/vdr - DVB-T channels are streamable - no audio streams / T2 channels are streamable but no audio streams except 1 channel with Dolby-digital 5.1 audio
VDR 2.3.8 from seahawk1986-hotmail/vdr-2.3.8 - vdr running without vnsi-server plugin - didn't investigate.
Other tests:
scanning with w_scan into vlc playlist - audio working with all channels (just to verify that the usb stick isn't faulty)
Logs:

ok was a bit too early on the post, after comparing setup.conf between versions of VDR, I found that UpdateChannels 2 is making both T and T2 channels to work with audio without any issues.
the thread can be closed.
