When turning on trueHD the TV makes no sound and once it is set to AC3 the sound works

Hello.
On my Minix Neo U8K Ultra with an ASUS USB-BT500 Dongle RTL8761BU Chip I canā€™t get the keyboard of the A3 Remote working.
In CoreElec (Bluetooth Section) i can see the A3 as Bluetooth Remote, but the keyboard is not working.
Some Help, or do I miss some Settings to get the keyboard working?

What TV do you have? I can confirm True-HD passthru is working with my AM8 and LGC1.

722

Sony bravia XR
True-HD passthru good with android
But coreelec no sound

723

your tv wonā€™t play truehd :rofl:
You need to transcode it like android does or connect earc to amplifier or soundbar with truehd supportā€¦

724

There are prohibited addons in your setup!

Although he probably needs a better Ɣudio setup you are wrong :

All LGā€™s 2017 OLED TVs come with Dolby AC-4 decoding, which means that compatible LG TVs will be able to handle object-based next generation audio for immersive three-dimensional audio. And LGā€™s 2017 premium TVs are already Dolby Visionā„¢ compatible, enabling owners to enjoy more than 100 studio titles of on-demand streaming services with Dolby Vision support.
The latest update also includes Codec MAT (Metadata-enhanced Audio Transmission) support to enable Dolby TrueHD audio bitstreaming on compatible 2017 LG OLED TVs.

I have the X96 X10 4GB and in system info CoreELEC returns:-

Display supported HDR types: HDR10, HLG, HDR10+, Dolby Vision

But I canā€™t get any Dolby Vision files to play. Iā€™ve tried a couple of the posted dovi.ko files and they all allow my Tv to switch into Dolby Vison mode but the playback just shows a blue screen.

Iā€™m hoping Iā€™m just missing the correct dovi.ko file, Iā€™ve poked around the android file system but canā€™t seem to find it. Do you know where to find it or have a copy you could upload for me to test with.

Thanks

Heā€™s replying to a guy with a Sony TV

728

There is no dovi.ko file needed to add

Use latest nightly. NE 5.4.210 kernel for Dolby Vision Playback Supported

729

Yep, thatā€™s what I am using.

730

Try the one from here.

731

Thanks, Iā€™ve already tried that one. With that one when I playback a DV file my TV correctly switches into DV mode but I just get a solid blue screen.

732

Check HDMI cable esp if you are using the factory included one

733

Thanks for the suggestion but itā€™s not the cable, the box is a drop-in replacement for a S905X4 box thatā€™s plays DV files using the same cable perfectly.

I think I must just be unlucky and have one that isnā€™t the DV version of the S928X.

734

Be sure to activate the Dolby compatible mode in player settings. FEL is not supported and end up in black screen.

735

Have you seen the log ?

736

I think by Default compatible mode is enabled.

Also could try Player LED
As TV LED is Default setting

737

Thanks, I only get the setting related to Dolby Vision if I put a dovi.ko file in the storage directory but that just results in a blue screen on playback, the TV does switch into Dolby Vision mode though. If I remove the dovi.ko file then all of the Dolby Vision related options disappear from Kodiā€™s settings.

I took a big chance on the box because it was on offer cheap on Amazon, Iā€™ll just return it.

Thanks for everyoneā€™s help :+1:
