DD+ and Kodi

Hi guys,
So i have ripped my copy of Serenity (HD-DVD) to the HDD, and it used to work fine.
Now i get major stuttering when i try to play the file.
As far as i can tell it's due to DD+ as when i disable the passthrough of that in kodi, it plays fine.
Does this happen to anyone else? Anyone else got a file with DD+ in it?

 

So your receive has a DD+ decoder and Kodi wasn't previously decoding it for you and was in fact bit streaming, or, your receiver does not have said decoder and Kodi was previously decoding it for you.

What model receiver do you have?

Try MPC-HC media player.

 

Receiver does have DD+
Tried a couple of them..

But without downgrading to an older kodi i can't say for sure what it was doing before

 

Enabled pass through in Kodi?

 

May also be called 'bit streaming'.

 

Yes i have..
And it's when that's enabled and DD+ marked as supported that the issue presents itself...
On 2 different amps.. 1 pioneer 1 Yamaha

 

What Hardware? On my old windows HTPC with a yamaha receiver I managed passthrough of everything all the way up to TrueHD etc without issue. Now on an AndroidTV box with SPMC Im also getting no issues.

Check the samples here:

I can do everything else too including TrueHD etc as well
Just DD+ causes issues
mobo is an Asus P8B75-M
with an i3 CPU etc

Tried it with onboard HDMI as well as a discrete card, both the same..

hrmm testing with the 'Safari' clip it works fine...
Maybe it's something to do with copy protection then (I ripped it from disk with makemkv)

 

If you have a source with True HD, opt for that over DD+.

 

The disc in discussion doesn't have TrueHD only DD or DD+
