[Help] Some audio tracks are not available

I have two Samsung TVs, different models.
Both are smart TVs and have a DLNA client installed.
I have downloaded some media files, mostly movies from torrents, which have multiple audio tracks, such as different languages.
Both TVs give me a choice of these audio tracks.
However, some audio tracks are not shown on both TVs. How can I diagnose and fix this issue? Logs can't help.

There are several options available on the Multimedia Server app, particularly those related to compatibility; perhaps one of them will help.

I have tried these options, but no one didn't help. My question is how to diagnose the issue? How can I enable Debug or more logs?

Sorry but we currently don’t have many solutions for compatibility issues that vary depending on the TV model. Perhaps you could consider other connection methods:

After enabling these options, I see many errors and warnings in the syslog.

BTW, after enabling/disabling these options, there is a mess in media folders on TVs shown by DLNA :(

The log isn't really helpful—it's just routine information when mediaindex starts up. You can use mediainfo to check audio track information, or you might also consider using Plex.

  • I think enabling options on the GUI should not add a lot of errors to logs. Isn't it? How can I fix these errors?
  • I didn't use Plex. I only used the Multimedia Server and the DLNA on my TVs.
    How can I use mediainfo to check the audio track information? Please give me an example.
