Full Version: Surround sound via Sony Bravia
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I have a generic M8S android TV box connected via HDMI to a Sony Bravia KDL-50W815B.
Sound is through a Sony HT-DDW760 home theatre system via an optic cable.
Plugging in the cable directly to the M8S works perfectly. However, when I use the TV for sound, I cannot get Dolby sound on the amp.
disabling passthrough in Kodi results in 2 channels getting through.

I would like to connect the optic cable to the TV so that I can use other cdmi sources too.

I've tried all sorts of setting combinations in the TV, Android and Kodi but I cannot seem to hit the right mix.

Any help would be most welcome.

Thank you.
