Multichannel PCM on Arc

Are you really not supporting multichannel PCM on the newly announced Arc?

Why? It’s not a licensing issue this time.

It seems like there is always something missing with your home theater products.

Hi all,

We hear you. With a software update today, Arc now supports multi-channel LPCM, bringing new immersive sound experiences for gaming, Blu-ray discs, and more. To get support for multi-channel LPCM on Arc, download the latest Sonos S2 update from the app store and then update your system in the Sonos S2 app. After updating the app, go to Settings > System > System Updates > Check for Updates.

All the best,

Ditte

It takes a long time to localize the US version for the UK :laughing:

Had to laugh when I saw this. I have been doing the same thing in Germany.

@Bertybassett 

I have checked a few of the European sites and they are all .28 as you and I are.  I do not understand why it takes so long to roll out to us.  I wished we could just load the US firmware but I would be afraid of bricking my tv.

because LG are rubbish!  Say what you want about apple but that would never happen in their world.

 

The USA version of the firmware more than likely is region blocked.

Any update on the LPMC would be most appreciated, just got Arc and I’m very disappointed it doesn’t support it :( 

Same here. How on earth was this not integrated to begin with??

Considering a return.

I’m sure the firmware is actually different. The US has a completely different broadcast TV standard than the UK, for one thing.
