I've watched some Dolby 5.1 test videos from Youtube, and from what I can hear, all speakers function normally. On the other hand, with Speaker Selection selected to "Home theater speakers", the Digital Output setting is greyed out, I have to change the Speaker Selection to "TV Speaker" so I can set it to PCM or 3 Bitstream options (Unprocessed / Re-encoded DTS / Re-encoded Dolby D), Hence my 2nd question, which should I choose? First, I selected Audio Return Channel to "On". Is that true? please cmiiw for this one.įrom Home Theater unit sound settings, there's a couple options (including Speaker Selection, Audio Return Channel and Digital Output). I'm a little bit confused because from what I read on Internet, optical / digital audio doesn't support DD+, and HDMI input supposedly supports that. I have updated both unit firmware to the latest version, and Home Theater unit is connected to TV through HDMI ARC and optical cable.įrom the TV sound settings (Expert Settings), HDMI Input Audio Format gives me 2 options (PCM and Bitstream), while Digital Output Audio Format gives 5 options (PCM, DD, DD+, DTS and DTS Neo 2:5), but except for PCM and Neo, other options are greyed out. I've spent hours trying to figure out if DD+ is configured properly but I haven't found an exact answer. I have Samsung 40MU6100 TV and Samsung HT-J5100K Home Theater, and afaik both support Dolby Digital Plus. Hi, I'm new to Home Theater world so I'm sorry if my question sounds silly or stupid.
