Serviio

Since Roku updated their devices to OS 14, most of my devices will no longer play AC3 or DTS audio. AAC is apparently the preferred format for the Roku Media Player now, although I think it's crap that they are forcing everyone to re-encode their entire library. Is there anyway to have the audio for Roku devices transcoded to use AAC audio instead of whatever the native audio stream is?

What model of Roku are you using? Some of their players have a built in DD encoder, and the OS update might have kicked in. I have a few of my Roku players on their beta program, and while I can't tell you the OS version I'm running (NDA and all that) I can say that my Ultra 4800 (which is set to passthrough for audio and connected to an AVR) plays DD and DTS tracks without a problem. So I think Roku has it fixed, they just need to roll out a new OS version.

I'm not going to change the Roku profiles in Serviio for a temporary issue with the Roku OS. Besides, to my knowledge there's no immediate plans to release a Serviio update, so any changes I make to the profiles wouldn't go public for a while anyway. Someone could create their own Roku profile as a workaround and transcode all audio to AAC, but then you'll lose 5.1 audio.
