Transcoding of DTS HD MA files on LG G4

I have an OLED55G4, connected with eARC to a Marantz AVR that supports DTS HD MA. When playing a file (that is DTS HD MA) with the Jellyfin WebOS app, it gets transcoded because "the audio codec is not supported". Is it normal?
This seems to be related to various things:
- is it the same issue as #197 ?
- I read on the forums that in 2020, LG stopped including DTS support in its TV, until it was included back in 2023. Apparently there was a "fix" done server side to convert DTS to AC3. Is that still the case?

Well, I activated a DTS and a TrueHD options in the playback options, and now I get DirectPlay, all good I guess!
Out of curiosity, I also tried to activate the fMP4-HLS option, but that one was preventing me from playing one of my file (stuck at the beginning, not playing). I ended up deactivating it. Is there a workaround, or a benefit, to using fMP4?
