    I would be happy to help with testing this, if there was a matching v1.2.25 TO v1.2.22 patch package. You know, in case something is broken badly and I need to go back. I've only got one device and don't want to cripple my daily driver.

    I can confirm that the issue regarding playing hi-res audio tracks in a video container (mkv, iso, BMDV folders) now correctly report the actual KHz on my AVR. Tested multiple files for music concerts and blu-ray audio files I have. 192 KHZ and 96 KHz both reported as they should and not as 48 KHz like they were before.

    However there is still an issue for DVD Audio discs as DTS MCH (5.1) audio tracks still are converted to 2 channel PCM for me. I have my HMDI settings as RAW.

    Unfortunately this will never be resolved by the Zidoo team. Lack of will, as it worked in previous firmwares. @Markswift2003 is aware of the problem but...

    This indeed seems to be fixed. Fantastic. :D
    Excludes requested changes to Jellyfin interface. :(
    Still, very happy with #3. :)

    I'm told that's being actively worked on.. I'm surmising, but it may be a SOC issue and require AML's input.
