Hello


I have a sony blu ray and yamaha home theater (HTR 6130). I currently have connected my blu ray to the tv and and i have an optical out from tv to the receiver.

When i start my blu ray i don't get surround sound but when i start the netflix from the tv i get surround sound (any of the movies which shows 5.1)

I tried connecting blu ray to the receiver but was only getting the picture and no sound.

Can you help me how can i get surround sound from the blu ray also


Thanks

Sam

That AVR doesn't take audio off HDMI. It is passthrough only(which is useless).

As for BD -> TV -> AVR...

Have you tried setting the BD player to PCM (with stereo Downmix if not already defaulted to Downmix)?
