Videoplayer for Android TV

Hi all,

I've got a Sony XF90 TV since a few months now and I'm using DS-Video to access the video's stored on my synology NAS. This runs pretty well but I didnt find a videoplayer that works well and doesnt cause any problems:

- Standard videoplayer: AC3 passthrough works well but it has no subtitles

- MX-player: tried everything but AC3 passthrough does not work at all

- VLC: same here, no AC3 passthrough

- KODI: own interface so no need for DS-video, it works awesome but Netflix stops working (starts 1/2 times and then I gotta reboot the TV)

 

I was hoping for BS player, but thats not in the Playstore.

Anyone else have this problem or knows of a good videoplayer that works?

 

Thanks,

Dirk

IT = Archos fa correttamente il Passthrough in DTS.

UK = Archos does the Passthrough correctly in DTS.

Archos work great!

DTS passthrough didnt work yet, but its not a big problem and maybe with some setting changes it will work.

Thanks!

And DTS works as well, had to put passthrough in "mode 1" instead of mode 2 I had earlier.

Great videoplayer, hope that Netflix stays working OK :slight_smile:
