FireTV: audio tracks have the wrong language name - cinemaxx1219 - 2024-09-10
Jellyfin Version: 10.9.9 running on Windows 11 on a Surface Book 2
Jellyfin Clients: FireTV Stick 4K Max 2nd Gen (Android TV), LG OLED G2 77" (WebOS)
Sound: Sonos Arc
My playback settings in Jellyfin are set to always use the english audio track as default.
My media files often have 3-5 extra audio tracks in russian or ukranian languages.
When watching movies with the Jellyfin Client for WebOS I have no issues.
The movie starts with the english audio track and in the settings it's also set to english, changing the audio track to russian works as intended etc.
When I'm watching my media with the Jellyfin Client on my Fire TV Stick (it supports more formats/codecs than WebOS), the selected audio track seems to be english.
It is shown as english, but the audio is russian or ukranian.
To change the audio to english I have to choose the top audio track in the settings which is being displayed as russian (deafault.)
This bug results in the movies always starting with the wrong audio as default and also me having to jump through audio tracks to find the right language.
The WebOS Jellyfin app, VIMU Media Player of FireTV or even Plex detect the audio language correctly.
Another audio track related issue appears when playing a movie with a TrueHD Atmos Audio Track.
Even when Jellyfin manages to select the right english audio track by default, the TrueHD Atmos audio will be played as Multichannel PCM 7.1 or 2.0.
Choosing another audio track and then going back to the previos one sets the audio to Atmos.
I only started using Jellyfin 3 weeks ago and I am loving it but the audio track selection issue is driving me a bit crazy.
