[App] HDMI 5.1 audio passthrough patch E/F/H (MST only)

[brankota]

Yes, i put the new binary in wrong location...
Thanks for your help, great mod, will experiment further and report.

[zoelechat]

Btw, did you have to fake EDID? If yes, which method did you use?

Hi guys,

I need to activate the 5.1 pass-through via spdif (got an xbox one connected to tv and then spdif to Samsung home theater system). I am trying to understand the topics in the forum but, since i have no prior experience with stuff like this
anyway, i have an UE42F5570, firmware: T-MST12DEUC-2102.2 (sorry auto update was on until i found this forum)

thanks in advance,

Sari

Most people come with no experience, just read and learn .

It should work without problem on your TV model, but you first need root, as for 99% stuff from here.

hi,

i have rooted my tv successfully, thanks to samygo dev team. i am trying to apply the patch here, but so far no joy.
below is the FakeEDID.log, tried HDMI 1 through 4, the result is the same. Failures comes out at the log and no sound is produced.

thanks for your support,

I guess you're posting in wrong thread, here is HDMI passthrough patch, not FakeEDID. However, you should have to apply BOTH patches for HDMI audio to passthrough.
Log looks fine, 'failed's are due to different TV series checking. Btw, what is your TV model?

[sari]

oh, sorry, got lost between topics.
f5570, trying to passtrough 5.1 hdmi audio.

[zoelechat]

If no sound is produced, it means FakeEDID was successful, now you have to apply HDMIpassthru (first post from there).

ps: sorry you had already told your TV model just above

@zolechat first of all thanks for the patch, I'm going to test soon it on my 6500F.

I wonder why it should not work on ARC?
Would it be possible to implement it? I'm willing to contribute

Because it's already the main and only function of ARC to do passthrough natively, so there's nothing to patch.
I've read your other post, if you can't get it to work it probably means that one device of your chain disallow it or doesn't support it, or compatibility issue. Problem doesn't come from TV, as long as you use HDMI2(ARC) port and have HDMI-CEC enabled.
