This is the same issue as I put up on the jellyfin-web repo with no response, and since I don't know if it's a serverside or lcientside problem, I thought I'd put it here too.
Describe The Bug
According to the codec support documentation, here Vorbis is supported on every client, yet somehow, if I have audio transcoding allowed for the user, it always transcodes for the web. This happens even if I set the maximum allowed audio channels to 7.1. When I turn off audio transcoding the sound plays back just fine, but I can't change the audio track. The web browser handles all the downmixing from 7.1 or 5.1 with no issues, so why does it transcode if I allow the user to be able to transcode audio?
Expected Behavior
I would expect to be able to playback surround sound vorbis audio on chrome, firefox, etc. with no transcoding, as they support the format just fine.
Logs
No logs, but let me know it they are needed.
