the old sky boxes wont output dolby through hdmi you will need to run optical
I have the latest sky HD box with built in wifi and wps button on it. that has the option for dolby and works great on my dodgy sky box (openbox) I had to change the sound to bitstream for the amp to pull the dolby from it same goes with the ps4 |
Literally just did a software update , no difference. The box is 5/6 years old now , wonder how much Sky would charge for a new one ?
Edit - £149 for me :( "Sky+HD 2TB box:*Existing Sky TV customers taking Entertainment Extra + and existing Sky TV customers with an Entertainment Extra+ or other Sky TV HD subscription adding Sky Multiscreen (£11.25pm per box) are entitled to one Sky+HD 2TB box for £49.

give them rock all - you want one free and free so called setup they try and blag you
my sky is free for a year part of a deal with sky fibre - safe to say i wont be carrying it on at what they charge. my openbox sub is only £6 a month |
Finally got my amp dialled in. I realised that if I turn the device on first (say the bluray player) the amp would just let me select any audio setting but dolby isn't an option. However if I turn the amp on first , when I turn on a device it auto selects dolby :)
Next was the Sky issue , which was solved by an optical cable and the same as described above, it auto selects dolby now when before it wasn't even an option. :) |
