Currently, we always need a custom codec to decode some of the sound formats, whereas for devices like Android TV (Nexus Player, NVidia Shield TV) and the ones with HDMI output it would be much better to output the sound track as it is. Chances are that the receiver is able to decode it anyway, probably even better than MX Player (with a proper multi-channel mapping), and the player wouldn't need to waste the CPU cycles for that.
This feature is currently available in some other players (e.g. Kodi and VLC), even in the open-source, so it should be really easy to implement.

Please add AC3/DTS pass though over HDMI like in KODI ant it's forks. . It's important for tv boxes. Now for ac3/dts I must use KODI player.

I have the version 1.7.28 ARMv7 NEON of MX Player pro installs on my receiver Pinacle 9600 HD the problem is that the application does not change the audio tracks, and if I install a newer version the codec HW does not work more. And if I do the update system of the receiver it gives me the same version of mx player soft that the sound does not work and if I update mx player I get the same problems precident

    I support this feature request as well. It can be something for @bleu8888 to look at when he is able.
