RE: [Help] Jellyfin outputs stereo instead of 5.1 on Zidoo Z9S - obi - 2025-01-08
I tried.
Same issue.
Maybe it's due to the binhex-jellyfin docker ?! I've seen another jellyfin docker on the Unraid Community Application (linuxserver's Repository for exemple).

It shouldn't matter, but I've seen weirder stuff.
Try the official jellyfin/jellyfin image. Other users have also had unexplainable issues with the linuxserver image.

I tried with jellyfin/jellyfin image and the problem is still here.
Unfortunately this issue must be here for a while...
I found this :

It's a shame that it works on Plex but not on Jellyfin

EDIT/update:
I did try another external player (Just Player), but I didn’t try the internal Zidoo player (used by HomeTheater4 / Google Video Player or something like that, I don’t remember exactly). With this player, it works—I get the 5.1 sound!
There’s just one small annoyance: when I stop playback, I get a 'Mark as watched' message where I need to choose whether or not the file should be marked as watched. (I don't have this when I use Home Theatre 4)
Overall, it works more or less correctly.
However, it’s strange that with the player used by Jellyfin, it doesn’t work.
