How to disable the SAP audio? about pvr.mythtv

[iticory]

I run the exact same type of setup and have experienced the same thing. Although it's rare in my case.

It seems like the player is sometimes defaulting to the alternate audio for some reason. However, there is a way to manually switch it back to the default when watching a program. When the player progress bar is visible, there is a cog in the lower right side of the screen you can press for those settings.

Thanks! I'll try that tonight. I thought I had tried every option, but maybe I overlooked that one. :-) Dan

Well, no luck. I got the progress bar on the screen and then clicked on each of the icons in the lower right side of the LibreElec screen, but none of them offered an option to disable or turn off the SAP audio.

Here's some screen shots of where to find it:

Maybe the reason I couldn't find it is that I'm using the Confluence skin? What skin are you using? Dan

It's the default skin: Estuary

[danielwlewis]

Well, that was PART of the problem. Confluence doesn't offer that option (see image below). I switched to Estuary and found the option, but it only allows me to toggle between English and Spanish. What I want to get rid of is the additional narration provided for visually impaired people. I.e., what I'm getting is English + the additional narration (that describes the scene); what I want is only the (regular) English (without the narration).

It's up to the content source how many audio streams there are and what they're called. When the content provides a "descriptive audio" stream, it will be one of the options you can toggle between as if it were just another language.

[danielwlewis]

OK, that makes sense because (for reasons I cannot explain) tonight the same recording that played with the narration now plays without it. Strange! Thanks for all your help. Maybe I should switch to Estuary in case the narration reappears! Dan

The audio control is handled by the kodi player. Please check the options in audio settings or in audio setup during the playback.
