Wow, really? Checking this out. Pretty much the only reason why I use the Nvidia Shield. Might want to give a heads up to Plex about this.
Edit: Well, sure enough. I started a 4K movie with Dolby TrueHD. Playing perfectly.
OK, now I'm really annoyed my 4640 doesn't have this support! :evil:

CAn you confirm your AVR shows it's receiving the TrueHD bitstream, as well as DTS/MA? Roku isn't just downconverting it internally? My 4640 will stream DTS/MA, but it only sends the lossy DTS core, and the AVR only shows DTS, not DTS/MA.

I did double check. AVR is showing only DTS when streaming both TrueHD and DTS-HD MA. At least Plex is directly streaming it w/o transcoding. Same videos work fine on the Shield.
ATC, I am using Premier Plus. I am curious if I upgrade if I can get lossless audio (4660 or newer - like the 4670R which is the current Ultra that is for sale online i see) - or if it would just pass the lossy DTS core like you said? I saw you said you're using 4640.
If it actually passes the lossless through to my receiver, then I am willing to upgrade to the latest...
