I suppose a good test would be to connect NO HDMI out and connect the optical to my 5.1. If I get DD, then connect the TV. If I lose DD, I'll just send it back. All I have to lose is shipping.

wow, you're 100% right its just branded! Goes to show you how Im chasing my tail on this. I'm gonna try it. I spoke to both Sony and Sonos today who both swore on a stack of bibles the model TV I was looking at passed 5.1 optically via HDMI. 2 hours in the store, we could not make it work!

My TV is a Samsung 55" UN55EH6000FXZA. Im sure it wont do it. I am currently looking for a grey market solution such as this. I will have no problems at all sleeping at night, I assure you. What I need is about 3 or 4HDMI ins and clean hdmi video and optical 5.1 dolby out, remote...

you have to understand, MY specific scenario although maybe not common is the one that matters most to me (especially because its underperforming). I really just fail to grasp WHY things are the way they are. All Im really looking for is a solution. Not only does the Sonos scenario make sense to...

the problem with the Sonos Playbar is its only input is 1 optical input. I cant go HDMI or any other way it, it has to be optical. So from the Roku streamer, directly in is not possible. We tried 3 separate receivers today with optical outs, and it seems nothing will pass an HDMI source to...

Unbelievable. After thousands on gear and looking to spend another grand, I STILL cant get the content I'm PAYING for.

Here's one I found RX-A1020 - AVENTAGE - Audio & Visual - Products - Yamaha United States this may work?

I was told today by both Roku and Sonos tech support if I get a quality receiver that has pass thru, I should be able to hdmi into that, optical out of that into my 5.1 and will get true 5.1 that way. Although as stated here, I'm not sure this solution will stop the audio from being dumbed down...

Maybe I'm confused. If the audio never gets to the TV from my Roku player or my cable box, why exactly wouldn't the device in question work? My signal path would be HDMI CAbles from Roku and cable into the device, optical out to my soundbar (sonos soundbar MUST use optical) and HDMI out to the...

Evidently, this is a common problem. I'm not getting 5.1 sound, or ANY sound when the source is 5.1 from the optical out into my Sonos soundbar (I have a full 5.1 sonos setup). The complete setup is as follows: Samsung TV Nintendo connected via component Cable box HDMI Roku 3 HDMI...
