Audio pass-through does not work in latest TVOS 11.3


Hi,

It seems that audio passthrough does not work in the latest TVOS 11.3 version.

It worked perfectly in the last TVOS version, DTS and Dobly Digital audio tracks on movies and tvshows only produce static noise in programs like MrMC.

When will this be fixed?


Please release a new version that fixes this issue, or let us downgrade when we are not happy with the latest version!

If it happens in select third party apps, but not in some others app and particularly Apple’s own apps, then it seems likely that those developers need to update their app to comply with the new tvOS.


The app seems to have put out a new version yesterday (3.6.1), which included increased audio buffer size. Could that be the fix?

Hi,


The upgrade did nothing. It is not just me, alot of people saying it was like this in the betas for 11.3 but Apple pushed it anyway.


Here are some forums posts for MrMC where they have the same issue:

Then, we have the same problem reported in the Infuse forums:

Audio pass-through was working, why brake/remove something that works?


The Apple TV went from the best device ever to a pretty useless thing which is a shame.



Apple must fix this issue!
