preferred transcode audio codec setting FLAC not working #234

Closed 24fpsDaVinci closed 5 months ago

24fpsDaVinci commented 5 months ago

when setting Preferred transcode audio codec to FLAC, the track is instead transcoded to AAC.

Other options like OPUS work as intended.

How many audio channels?

24fpsDaVinci commented 5 months ago

6 channels

dmitrylyzo commented 5 months ago

6 channels

Since FLAC with more than 2 audio channels is not well supported in webOS (https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-webos/issues/146), it has been limited to 2 channels for video (https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-web/pull/5452). In your case it means that Jellyfin selects the next supported codec to support 6 audio channels - AAC.

Ok, looks like they chose to preserve channels with AAC instead of downmixing. thank you
