Folks, please test the following video in your upnp media server. It does not show up in any of my clients, and the status of upnp server is forever scanning. I tested a few videos that has Dolby TrueHD audio, they all have the same problem. However such file works under other DLNA servers such as windows or Plex. Is this an issue from the specific implementation of ASUS/Merlin? Thanks

It works fine on my setup. Kodi reads it as TrueHD 7.1

Thanks. I made a mistake. This file is also shown fine here. I now realized only two files do not work and they happen to have TrueHD. Other TrueHD files work fine. After further investigation, I found these two files both have at least 5 audio streams. Could that be the reason?
