I have a projector (No ARC)
HDMI audio extractor → Optical to HDMI adapter → Beam.
Optical can support stereo Dolby Digital and Stereo PCM.
I want to plug a laptop in it detect 5.1 sounds...not all channels play think it missing out front or something. I think it is sending out 6 uncompressed LPCM channels
Kodi on a fire stick works if i set it to 2 channel and Dolby digital transcoding. (If want to understand that message me)
Making the laptop output to DD seems maybe impossible (I want this for games not movies)
My question is in does the beam support 6 channel PCM over ARC,
So if i get something like this an “ARC sender” so I don’t need the optical adapter
