Ah thanks, that explains it!
The soundbar supports Dolby Digital, Digital Plus and TrueHD, and DTS and DTS-HD. If I play file through Kodi on my Windows PC all is good as that will convert to 8 channel PCM (I think - it says mulitchannel PCM and it sounds like it), however playing directly from the TV media player will not decode the AAC, hence I was hoping to convert.
Always go round it using Popcorn on 5.1 AAC tracks and converted just to Dolby Digital, but that crashes when trying to deal with a 7.1 source. Can obviously convert to a 5.1 track instead, but don't like to be beaten!
