Re: Roku Media Player won't play some audio formats after OS update
It's been almost 2 weeks since this was reported with no updates from you at all on any progress regarding a fix just more issue reports requested and there have been several sent. Patience is running thin here,if it's just a random issue on some Roku units why can't you make a rollback available to those with AC3 audio issues?

Re: Roku Media Player won't play some audio formats after OS update
I agree with Gary, Rollback would be the smartest decision until the issue is fix.

I have been trying to get something in RMP fixed for years. Roku has a very low priority on this app, unfortunately.

Re: Roku Media Player won't play some audio formats after OS update
Nope! Not a peep from Roku.
My question is,(example) does this only effect some Roku 4670r models or all of this model #?
Seems to me if it was all the 4670r models there would be more than dozen people here looking for answers after 3 weeks. That might help getting these audio specialists? doing something about it.

Re: Roku Media Player won't play some audio formats after OS update
I was able to get audio from my AC-3 files by toggling the Volume Mode to Off and then back to my preferred mode. (this was on Ultra 4660).
If I left in Off position, the video could be played/resumed with audio just fine. If I switch back to Leveling or Night after first toggling to Off (to gain audio), then each time I play/resume later I first have to toggle to Off then select preferred mode.
To toggle Volume Mode, press the asterick (*) button while video is playing and select "Off" under Volume Mode.
----
Not sure why workaround is working on some models and not others according to this thread so may just have to try a couple of different combinations of audio settings with the Volume Mode in the Off position).
