I was unable to hear any of the audio on Season 6 of the Soprano's on my X9S... It is encoded using LPCM unlike the other seasons that use DTSHD-MA. I found this solution on AVSForum... It works perfectly! This post is to share some information and the solution to the problems I was having with MakeMKV and Blu-rays with LPCM audio. When remuxing Blu-rays containing LPCM audio with MakeMKV, I would not be able to playback the LPCM audio track using anything, including VLC on PC, Popcorn Hour c200, Boxee Box, etc. MakeMKV sets the Codec ID to "A_MS/ACM" which is a very uncommon codec. To solve this problem, open MKVmerge GUI, and go to File -> Header Editor. Then go to File -> Open and browse to your MKV. Scroll down to the audio track that contains the LPCM audio and change the Codec ID from "A_MS/ACM" to "A_PCM/INT/LIT". Then File -> Save. Your MKV will now contain an LPCM audio track that should be compatible with any software or hardware capable of playing MKV files... Hope this helps...
I have a 1000PRO and am having issues with my LPCM audio files playing at very low audio levels. I tried this fix to update the code in MKVToolNix, but it hasn't worked for me. Did anyone else come across this issue and find a solution? I read that some were able to covert the LPCM to FLAC in MAKEMKV, but would prefer to use the LPCM if possible.
Oh my god! That fixed it! Never even thought about the zidoo player volume adjustment since it doesn't apply to other audio formats. Thank you!!
You'd be surprised how many times this happens to people. Later boxes have an option to disable the volume control.
