Hi all,
I have a Denon AVR2312 unit connected to a popcornhour. I know both units support TrueHD audio as on other mkv titles the amp display that incoming signal is TrueHD.
I have recently tried to play MKV files which have a TrueHD Atmos track but the amp shows no incoming audio signal when played back. I dont expect to replay atmos on my amp but I thought the atmos TrueHD signal was backward compatible and that although my amp isnt atmos compatible it should detect and play the TrueHD audio track.
I dont know if the issue is the popcorn hour not sending the signal correctly or the amp not receiving it. I have checked the audio on an example file and according to mediaInfo the info on the audio track is as below.
My question is should my equipment still be able to see and play back the TrueHD stream or would the info below indicate that there is only an atmos stream and cannot be played on a non atmos amp?
Thanks in advance for any help provided and apologies for my very basic knowledge on these issues.
