Hey all,
Got a soundbar that supports HDMI ARC or optical audio. Optical audio requires I control with its remote but I’d rather only use the TV remote but all of my videos are encoded AAC which HDMI ARC doesn’t support. Is there a way to do a device specific custom profile to transcode audio to DTS for example?
That makes sense, the TV won’t convert it for you only pass through what it can. You would either need to convert the AAC to AC3 so it can pass through properly, or use a set-top-box that can force/convert it on the fly
So back to my origin question. Jellyfin supports transcoding so can it support device specific profiles where I can force it to transcode all audio to ac3 for specific decices?
I know there are some device profiles under the DLNA settings.
I don’t know if those just apply to DLNA or not. I haven’t played with it myself.
That’s what I had heard as well. Maybe this is a new feature request for the project developers.
