MC 24 not playing 5.1 wav or dts
Hendrik:
Does your box have an internet connection? This is required to install the dependencies for video playback. It should otherwise happen transparently.
Also, you can create a Log file by going to "Help -> Logging" in Media Center, and ticking the "Output to a log file" checkbox. Then try playing a video or your DTS audio file (preferably both for testing) and go back to Help -> Logging and press the "Report problem.." button. It'll create a ZIP file with the log, which you can share with us.

So... it's not a box but a desktop pc that raun linux mint 18.3 cinnamon. There is a monitor 24' and a tv samsung as secondary monitor.
I've tried to run
"sudo apt-get -f install" and
" sudo apt-get check"
to see If there was a missing dependencies warning but nothing happened.
I'm going to bed. Tomorrow when I come home from work I'll try to create the log file.
Question: is it possible that all this thing is happening because I've MC23 AND MC 24 in the same system installation?

MC downloads it's own dependencies outside of the linux mint apt framework. All that should be required is an internet conneciton.
MC23 and MC24 can totally coexist in the same system. They have their own install directories and user directories.
You might want to check to the plugin folders to see if the dependencies are installed:
In an xterm as the user running MC:
ls -lR ~/.jriver/Media\ Center\ 23/Plugins
ls -lR ~/.jriver/Media\ Center\ 24/Plugins
Note any differences here please.

Omg! Thank you bob... that's it.... there is only the directory "linux_avcodec64" in both the path but the MC24 directory it's empty!!
Can I just copy the MC23 plugins into the MC24 directory or there is a way to download a set of updated ones?
And, yes I think I've been a little bit rude and maybe I am the donkey here, sorry for that...

They have been updated so you can't just use the MC23 ones.
We need to figure out why yours aren't downloading.
Can you try something like a file conversion on a video to force it to download the avcodec stuff?
Right click on a video and do Library Tools->Convert format. Make it convert a video to h264 or some such. You can set the options to not add the file to the library and leave the original in place.
Then see if the avcodec stuff is downloaded.
