JLH Posted June 23, 2022 Posted June 23, 2022 I just got the buzztv X5 Hooked it up, works great but When I try to play a Dolby digital 5.1 or Dolby Atmos or Dolby digital plus movie... the movie plays but I get no sound...those movies play fine using my buzztv 4900 It works with my 4900 xrs... the audio output in the 4900 includes Dolby Atmos with Dolby digital plus, Dolby digital, Dolby digital plus, dts, dts-hd, AAC, Dolby truehd... As the movie plays with my sound system Maybe it's just a settings within the X5 but can't seem to find it... when going in display & sound, all I see is s/pdif... I wonder if I'm not looking in proper section to enable some audio output When playing those movies with my 4900, it shows Dolby digital 5.1 or Dolby Atmos on the receiver But with the X5, it only says PCM on the receiver Thank you Quote

JLH Posted June 23, 2022 Author Posted June 23, 2022 Just wondering why with the 4900 everything sounds great with my surround system and shows Dolby digital 5.1 or Dolby Atmos on the Sonos app And with the X5 it says PCM Quote
