Toshiba Fire TV Edition

Post by Jamester64 »

For the life of me I can not get anything but 2.0 stereo sound on my 2018 Toshiba Fire TV Edition connected to a
Pioneer VSX-532 receiver via hdmi ARC, I have tried various settings trying to play local MKV movies with DD,DTS with no avail,
although Prime video and netflix passes the 5.1 DD audio fine.
I have reset all settings to default and am hoping someone here can help :-)

TIA

Debuglog please

ARC is notorious for screwing up audio, it can be a one of few issues as we rely on audio being passed untouched... which in your setup is not the case

Did you enable passthrough on MrMC?
The log seems to tell you're trying multichannel PCM, wich definitely won't work on ARC

EDIT: Ah, saw the 2nd try. What's happening with PT enabled? Noise or 2.0?

I take it I'm the only one here to try MRMC on a Toshiba Fire TV Edition as I cant find any other references in the forum search
