Audio Number of Channels Question. - veloglou - 2020-04-03 Greetings , Sorry if this is answered before i ve found similar threads but not exactly and if someone could help me i would be really gratefull. I have An LG oled B7 2017 Connected via ARC to a Samsung Q90r Soundbar that is capable of every audio codec (7.1.4 with dolbyatmos dts x ) , And i have an Khadas Vim3l Running Coreelec directly plugged to the soundbar. I have every passthrough enabled as the soundbar supports all. Now i am trying the 7.1 channels in number of channels setting but some of my files dont play any sound or weird sounds come out , If i change the channels to 2.0 looks all right the audio setting says that it doesnt apply to passtrhough audio and the audio tracks i am trying to stream are dts and dolby that i allready have enabled the passthrough. Should i change it to 2.0 ? would this change anything to the surround quality ? From a test i did when i have the audio number of channels to 2.0 and doing a dolby atmos test all the speakers seem to work fine the same goes on when i have 7.1 i do not notice any difference ! Can someone explain me the correct setting ? since i have passthrough enabled it shouldnt matter if i have 2.0 ? but then why i dont have sound when i have the 7.1 on some files. kind of confusing , tried to explain the best i could . thanks in advance for any feedback.

This should give you a bit more info https://kodi.wiki/view/Raspberry_Pi_FAQ#Multichannel_Audio |
