No DTS-HD bitstreaming Nvidia Shield - HDGuy - 2023-08-20
I’ve tried the current release Android TV client and now 16.0-beta.2 release. Both could pass through TrueHD/Atmos fine, but release could only extract DTS and the beta only outputs it as DTS-HD HiRes at best with LibVLC, otherwise it’s DTS core only with the built in ExoPlayer decoder. Ironically all my other playback apps on the Shield bitstream DTS-HD just fine, including JustPlayer which is ExoPlayer based.
Anyone else having this issue? It pretty much makes Jellyfin unusable for me on the Shield.

I'm currently having the same issue? Did you manage to figure out the solution?

Passthrough support varies by device. The device's SOC both has to support the audio codec AND the device manufacturer has to pay for a license for the privilege of audio passthrough.
