How is the stereo downmix generated?

Post by kwangomango »

Is it using ffmpeg on the fly?

Are there any volume reductions applied to specific channels in say a 7.1 mix or DRC used?

The downmix of a TrueHD 7.1 audio track sounds different between MrMC, Kodi and Emby and I'm trying to understand why.

MrMC sounds the best to me as Kodi seems too loud and with too much dynamic range whereas Emby has too much DRC applied for my taste.
