Re: New LG Profile Requiring Testers. (2012 Models ONLY)
Thanks for that. I've attempted a number of permutations of aBitrate and aSamplerate but none have been successful.
Here is my current setup:
- Code:

One thing I have found interesting is the effect of the sample rate setting on the resulting audio from the TV. I've taken a couple of recordings, both with a bitrate of 192 but differing samplerates; 44100 and 48000. Maybe it's just me but does the 48000 sound like it's playing at a slower speed? Could a samplerate issue be at the heart of this problem? (although my original problem was not being able to play lpcm at all - haha!)
(I apologise for the poor quality and quietness of these - they were recorded on my phone from a distance)
192kbps 44100hz
192kbps 48000hz
In addition, when setting the bitrate at 320 the TV plays a fraction of the first second worth of music before stopping and skipping to the next song, for all songs.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Chris.
