Playback Issues - Audio/Video & Power

[kanadkanhere]

Hi,

I have the Roku 3600x Stick and I am connecting to it as wireless display from my windows 10 laptop. I am able to cast the video properly but I only get 2 channel audio. Not able to get multichannel audio. I have confirmed that the video I am playing has multichannel audio and that my media player is able to process it  (by connecting my laptop over hdmi cable I get the dolby audio fine).

Is it that Roku Stick doesn't support multichannel audio over miracast? Does Roku Stick+ support it?

Thanks

@kanadkanhere Thanks for the note. Screen mirroring isn't intended for that type of video playback and does not support surround sound multi-channel audio. For that type of playback, we'd recommend trying to connect your computer directly to your TV or receiver to play from the source directly. 

Thanks,

Tanner
