I confirm your EDIDs are well patched, so .inf shouldn't be needed. Then it can only be a matter of something wrong you expect from it. You're probably sending 6ch PCM, which is not supported. Check ffdshow which has an option to convert to DD5.1 on-the-fly, else bitstreaming ONLY

Well, that's why I was saying maybe we are speaking about different things^^

Let me try again to explain what I expect from this Patch:

My Connected Devices don't recognize that Samsung-TV is able to output DolbyDigital.
That's why they don't show me this Option. And I was hoping this Patch will solve this.

For Example Windows:

Samsung-TV connected to PC via HDMI: Soundbar connected to PC via HDMI Translation:
* Unterst?tzte Formate = Supported Formats
* Maximale Anzahl von Kan?len = Max Number of Channels
* Nicht unterst?tzt / unterst?tzt = Not supported / supported
* Bittiefen = Bit Depths
* Abtastraten = Sample Rates
* Codierte Formate = Encoded Formats

I don't trust these infos given by Windows, here it says 2ch max and 5.1 works flawlessly...
What I'm sure is that as long as you try to passthrough PCM, you'll get only stereo (except if you use ARC, but in that case it has nothing to do with EDID).

But my Soundbar has also an Option to show Incoming Input and same as PC it is only showing PCM. Even if I play a Game or AC3 Video-File from VLC.

I don't know any game that outputs DD or DTS audio, and AFAIK VLC crap also doesn't support bitstreaming

OK, thank you for your help
I've now connected my devices via SPDIF-Switch to Soundbar. This working for all of them including PC+VLC and DD5.1

Hi,

I have just tested the patch on my UE48H6500 and it seems not working although the logs report this :
[FakeEDID] Dumping default EDID first block!
[FakeEDID] Overriding HDMI1 EDID with AC3/DTS support!
[FakeEDID] Overriding HDMI2 EDID with AC3/DTS support!
[FakeEDID] Overriding HDMI3 EDID with AC3/DTS support!
[FakeEDID] Overriding HDMI4 EDID with AC3/DTS support!

DTS and Dolby are still not available to select it.
I installed anyway the HDMI 5.1 audio passthrough patch. With the DTS option, DTS and Dolby become available but the Dolby passthrough results in outputting the audio of the tuner (in Dolby) instead of the audio of my HDMI source...

As I wanted to root only for this option, I unrooted my TV to free the USB port.
Please can you confirm that the LOAD option does not generate log ? (no error on telnet but no log generated).

Hope this experiment can help.

The log it generates is the one you pasted a part of (/dtv/FakeEDID.log). Commandline itself never generate any log to stdout.

Well, I'm not sure to understand.
With this 2 commandlines I had a FakeEDID.log :
samyGOso -T -B -l /mnt/opt/privateer/usr/libso/libFakeEDID.so DUMP
samyGOso -T -B -l /mnt/opt/privateer/usr/libso/libFakeEDID.so FAKE DTS

But not with this one :
samyGOso -T -B -l /mnt/opt/privateer/usr/libso/libFakeEDID.so LOAD

Ahh I see, no it's not expected, any injection should generate a log
