Been running fire sticks and cubes for some while and old style DD 5.1 has always been a bit hit and miss but a reboot usuallt brought it back when it failed. But now it is totally escapting me.
Firecube running two similar provider apps, both fail to give me a DD 5.1 signal from the EEC? codec audio channelon the HD feeds.
The firecube audio tests play in DD 5.1 but HD films are all in DD stereo.
I have checked the EDID, (legacy procesor with no HD capabilities) and these match what is shown in the firecube, all shgow as DD 5.1 enabled. I have powered everything down forced an hdmi reconnect, all to no avail. I have also tried different players.
Is there a known fault with the latest firecube software? Possible solutions? new box ? suggestions ? ( I didnt like the Shield)
many thanks for any pointers
