Help Needed - NO DD Audio over HDMI From any HD Channel on Airtel HD DVR

[travel_living]

Hi All,

I have Airtel HD DVR connected to TV Over HDMI Cable.

My Settings -
AIRTEL HD DVR >> Connected to TV using HDMI Cable.

Airtel DVR Menu > Settings > User Settings > Audio >
Preferred Audio on HDMI > I choose Dolby Digital or Dolby Digital Plus.


I am not able to hear any sound from any HD channel with settings, while non HD channel's audio work.

When i choose stereo it carry sound for HD channel as well.

Any Idea ??

Can Any one with Airtel HD/HD DVR check with this setting .


Thanks in advance.

P.S : I have connected Airtel DVR to Onkyo amp with Same audio setting & Audio travels via HDMI cable for HD Channel.

If you set the audio to dolby, volume control of stb will not work. You can see this warning when you do the selection. My connection is

Airtel stb to tv thro HDMI cable
Airtel stb to yamaha yht196 thro optical cable

Audio option is dolby for optical cable and stereo for HDMI.

When using the HT, I select the optical cable input as the audio channel.

This way, I am able use the tv with or without the HT

If you want DD over HDMI connect your STB to Onkyo and connect Onkyo HDMI out to HDMI (ARC) of the TV. Your TV can't process digtal dolby

I get good 5.1 surround effects even over HDMI from my airtel STB. i use pioneer 323K and it even shows Dolby sign as the input signal.
