Thanks. I read through that and it was nice to get a definition of what the settings "Best Available" vs "Dolby Digital +" do on the Fire TV stick. So when I change the Fire TV stick to "Dolby Digital +", then it correctly passes DD+ to the receiver. Unfortunately, it sends everything to the receiver as DD+, even my stereo music.
So, the Fire TV stick setting "Best Available":
- converts DD/DD+ to PCM
- does not convert DTS
- does not convert PCM
Fire TV stick setting "Dolby Digital +":
- converts PCM to DD+
- does not convert DD/DD+
- does not convert DTS
With Kodi and the Fire TV stick setting "Best Available", none of the above are converted...which is what I am after.
