I have here a sample file, 1.8Gb, an MKV with video and 16 channels of discrete decoded Atmos.
Please dl and try it out.

Apparently, this plays perfectly with MC on Mac.
On Windows however, we get this error message:

Additional information about this test track:
Video: H.264
Audio: 16 channels, 24/48 LPCM little endian
Muxer: MKVToolNix

plays ok on MC Linux
also fails on my windows (10) setup with same error
-
So works on Mac and Linux.
Why not on Windows..?
-
Ok, simple (?) question to the devs and other audiogurus:
Is it at all possible to play more than 8-ch in a combined AV container on Windows as opposed to Mac/Linux, who apparently can..?
Or is there a limitation in Windows that's impossible to get around..??
-
There is no "fundamental" issue with 16 channels, its just rather uncommon to have any audio files over 8 channel, and many components don't deal with it properly.
We're looking into it, but it might be a bit.

Any updates on this issue?
Thanks.

Can we hope for a solution.. ;)..?

Hey mate, any idea what the lineage is here? Retail Atmos from a disc converted to 16ch?
I didn't think the Dolby Atmos decoder / renderer worked with already encoded retail tracks?

Yes to all questions.. ;)

Well on on, I'll definitely be playing around with this. That's sweet.

Hi
Any updates on this?
-
Is playback fixed then on the newest JRiver version? And could the OP be kind enough to re-upload the test file?
