The official listing has no details about the audio codecs supported, so I was wondering whether LDAC, AptX HD, and the likes are supported with this phone.
Thanks
Hope it is what you mean by supported codecs.

Hi,
When I tried to play a FLAC audio file, I'm really surprised and disappointed. How could HTC doesn't add FLAC support to its devices. Anyway, I'm looking for FLAC support, I found PowerAMP application. It plays well and I pleased when I tried its equalizer etc. settings. I'm planning to buy its full version. But really, is next update (2.3.3), add FLAC support (since there is no update to my country I can't check it)?
Taken from the official Android Developer Jelly Bean information.
Multichannel audio
Android 4.1 supports multichannel audio on devices that have hardware multichannel audio out through the HDMI port. Multichannel audio lets you deliver rich media experiences to users for applications such as games, music apps, and video players. For devices that do not have the supported hardware, Android automatically downmixes the audio to the number of channels that are supported by the device (usually stereo).
Android 4.1 also adds built-in support for encoding/decoding AAC 5.1 audio.

This feature is a major reason for me to upgrade to Jelly Bean. Is HDMI output all the hardware that is needed or is multichannel hardware required too? Is the Galaxy Nexus, S3 or anything else capable once on JB or are there no hardware capable releases on the market?
Im thinking about getting the lg pad [500 not GPE] for video playback has anyone tested the standard player for ac3 sound support?
At $84, I'm tempted to buy one, but only if 1080p playback works flawlessly. Have the bugs finally been worked out?

It depends on the codec within it. With XBMC or SPMC, I've found my Blu-Ray rips all technically play of course, but those whose video are encoded in VC-1 don't have hardware decoding and thus don't play smoothly. Those using MPEG-2 or H.264 play perfectly. To get around that, I transcoded such BR's to H.264 at a rather high quality (and kept the originals around for if / when VC-1 hardware decoding ever gets going).
On the audio side, I have pass-through enabled along with Dolby Digital encoding enabled for XBMC's audio transcode (that second part is necessary so something like 5.1 PCM, FLAC, Dolby True HD, or DTS Master audio can reach my receiver in 5.1, since Android devices currently can't pass full-bandwidth surround audio). Hope this helps you in making your decision.
Can someone post the supported codec types of the S20+? Either typed or screenshot.
I Googled but everyone is talking about Bluetooth share, and the official Samsung page only says the version number and marketing speak about "high quality".
Thank you.
