Dolby Digital Set-up?
Posted on Jul 31, 2008 under Digital news and reports |I purchased a Sony KDL-46XBR4 and am trying to get Dolby Digital from a cable box to a surround sound receiver. I learned from Sony that when HDMI is input into the TV, the optical output only provides 2.1 channels of PCM. Using the TV tunner is the only way to get DD from the TV. I consider this a design defect. A direct cable box to receiver connection results in a a/v sync problem due to TV video delay. Is there any solution outside of purchasing a new reciever with hdmi and video sync?
If the HDMI chipset did not allow dolby digital output, shouldn't have Sony designed in some other work arround?

Wow! That is totally a unacceptable design flaw.
My only suggestion, and you might not like the sound of it, is to forgo the HDMI cable and go with component (RGB) cables for video and run a digital audio cable directly to your AV receiver.
This MAY eliminate the A/V sync problem you described ( I'm guessing the HDMI processing is the culprit behind the sync problem) and the picture quality loss is almost undetectable in my experience.
Other wise, yeah, you might need to just bite the bullet and get a new A/V receiver with HDMI pass through capabilities.
Good luck.
