Amazon Prime, no Dolby with android..

Hi,
A new problem with my gt-king pro ...

I am an Amazon Prime Video subscriber, when I use Coreelec I can choose the sound quality, either stereo or dolby 5.1.
But when I use the Prime Video application on android I only have stereo sound, no access to dolby 5.1 yet well activated in the Android sound settings ..?

Having a GT-King pro quality TV box and not being able to take full advantage of dedicated TV applications does not seem very wise to me.

An update is NEEDED ...

Just for info, at moment I try Spartan V5 https://forum.freaktab.com/forum ... tv-s922x#post816159
It's a custom rom based on android TV, with this rom amazon prime video offers the sound in dolby 5.1 unfortunately when I try to play a video there is an error and therefore impossible to see anything. Anyway the problem remains, it is essential for a dedicated TV box and therefore video playback, to be able to enjoy dolby sound like in the cinema! Without having to go through a custom rom ...

@beelink I still have not had an answer to this problem ... By researching a little I was able to find the information that on Android the sound in dolby as well as the HD are accessible with Amazon Prime ...

I have the same problem. No 5.1 audio is being sent from the GT-King Pro to my receiver on the HDMI cable. It used to work a couple of months ago. Then I tested the output using a YouTube audio test video. I don't remember if I used the App of the web browser YouTube. I am still investigating the problem of the box only outputting stereo. I suspect the audio chips on the board died, since I did a ROM update. The audio worked fine before, but still not working after flash back to old ROM.

Sorry for not replying in time
Currently GTkingpro has been updated to 915P0, have you updated yet? Does this problem still occur after the update?

OK I have updated to 915PO, flashed by USB process..
And the problem are still present, no dolby audio with Amazon Prime..

Now I am looking more to run Linux on this GT-King rather than Android which is still not really suitable for my use, thank you for considering the development of a linux desktop environment suitable for the gt-king pro ..
There is has on the forum @Darkstar who made a debian and @spikerguy who made a Manjaro but this is not really official, Beelink would have gained everything by producing a multi-boot firmware (Android on emmc, Coreelec on Sd-Card , and Linux OS on USB ...) more possibilities for the user and above all an advantage over the competition ..
Today this GT-King Pro is one of the best sbc available on the market but as it is not adapted to linux, a good number of potential users preferred to buy another box which is Armbian compatible.
