“I just wondered though, is the S912 capable of playing back UHD HEVC content and being able to transcode HD Audio such as DTS-MA or TrueHD into 5.1 Dolby Digital, or would it struggle?”
I have a similar setup to you and I can confirm that dts hd and true had can both be transcoded and the receiver recognises it as Dolby , I normally have to change the audio sync to around 0.675s ahead to keep it in sync.
Also thanks kszaq and other devs involved for making this possible the last update is by far the smoothest and best yet!

I think You have to open an own thread reporting the bug as described here

Instead of buying an expensive HDR capable AVR you can buy a much cheaper HDR HDMI splitter and you can enjoy HD audio and 4k together,

You know I would consider something like that, it is certainly something I'd be happy using, its just educating others in the house to remember to switch the TV & AVR inputs at the same time.

Which S912 is not supported?
-
Most people have been buying the MECOOL M8S Pro L for dual boot LibreELEC / Android TV ROM with 1080p Android TV Netflix capabilities.
The Pro L has guaranteed Widevine L1 and HDCP 1.x - needed for Android TV Netflix - the regular M8S Pro does not, unless you get a mislabeled box.
Both device do not have Gigabit (1000M) LAN but 100M(bit) only.

Can you confirm this one works? I had a 4K splitter and it did split the signal simultaneously, but it capped at the lowest setting, which is my 1080p Onkyo 717. My TV was automatically limited to 1080p as well. If I force Kodi to 4K, my amp loses the signal, thus no audio. I think I'm gonna need a new amp.
-
No I cannot confirm, it is on the way. But in other thread another splitter mentioned which works fine. It has an EDID switch, so you can force it to use the tv's capability. I ordered this because it is declared as HDR capable.

Have anyone an idea how I can set the energysave (I dont know thats right im german -Energiesparen-) settings in Settings->Energysave and activate the suspend mode? I cant set this because its grey.

If I force my splitter to 4K, my amp loses audio. Doubtful any switch will work. I already have two switches, neither of them works (to be fair, one of them is a switch, not a splitter). At first I thought it was working fine, because Kodi osd media info said it was playing a file at 4K. Sure, it was playing a 4K file, but my TV was outputting 1080p.

Try
[8.2.1.2] LibreELEC 8.2 for S912But it is considered unreliable, with different results on different devices. Some not properly waking up anymore. Hence it being disabled by default. If you break your system you get to keep both halves.

My AVR has HDMI 2.0 and it works fine with 4k video. The only problem is it cannot passthrough 4k HDR video (out is 4k SDR).
So I hope this HDR splitter will work with my system.

That will work then, I think. My amp doesn't do 4K passthrough, only 4K upscaling. Think I'm gonna go for an Onkyo 656.
