Only audio on channels with 5.1.032

[dntaylor]

Well I have tried the settings on both TV sets my Samsung lcd 24" and my LG 55" OLED with the same results. If I set it on 1080 i/p you get a black screen showing only menus. There must be an issue with this because so many people have been posting about it. You must be one of the few that it is not effecting with your brand of TV.

I have also noticed the transcoder is not working when selecting AAC to AC3 watching Freeview HD. When I play it through my amp using the optical output of the receiver you get no sound.

The other posts are talking about the MIPS boxes.
If this was a common problem the people on the other forums would be yelling their heads off (Giga 4K has been around and has a more significant presence over here ... and they don‘t keep quiet) Also both my Giga 4K‘s (Quad & UE) currently work at 1080P ... one to the panny one to a 2160 monitor.
(Ref Freeview, I need to check but seem to remember an issue with their audio setup.... will check and come back

What amp are you using????? I assume you are going Giga -> receiver -> TV??? Or?????

Lastly have you tried another image ..... this a multiboot receiver, so you can flash another partition and flip between them to test.#

Just seen other posts by you.... so you are using a freeview tuner not a sat tuner?? Or both?? WHich pnp tuner are you using for freeview?

Unlike on the other forum post (which you have posted on) talking about the HD51, the Giga4K does (at least in the image) have the capability to support AAC (either passthrough or downmix) and AAC Transcode (off, AC3 or DTS)
So to get AC3, I guess you have tried combinations of both AAC downmix and AAC transcode (AC3) together?? both with hdmi and optical?

Just trying to clarify.
As commented earlier would be worth trying to flash say OpenPli and seeing if there is a difference.(OpenATV code is very similar to OpenViX)

Thanks twol for your reply,
I have tried all combinations as you suggested with no success. When I get some time I will try flashing OpenPli to see if it works on that.
