Enable AC3/DTS WIN-Samsung HDMI (Auto EDID hack)

Post by Rednox »

Hello together,

recently I rooted my H6270 and enabled all stuff I need (including hdmiPassthrough that is needed if are interested in the threads topic). Finally i tried to get the fakeEdid app running without any success. Then I started the approach to hack the edid information on windows side (telling windows that the samsung is capable of playing AC3/DTS). Because I am really scared to change all that edid stuff manually and do something wrong, I luckily found this tool that I want to share with you!

Custom Resolution Utility (CRU)

With that tool I just did the following steps and it worked:
  • Selected my samsung monitor
  • Imported the attached "hdmi-bitstream.dat"
  • Choose "Custom extension block" in the dropdown
  • Pressed Edit for the dropdown selection
  • Pressed "Add" for detailed resolution
  • Pressed "ok" to add the current resolution (1080p)
  • Pressed "Ok" to close the Custom extension block popup
  • Pressed "Save"
  • Run restart.exe
