No eARC? Arcana from HD Fury has arrived and it works with the Sonos Arc!

I can confirm Arcana works like a charm. Just hooked mine up today and it is glorious.

Mine has just been released and will arrive mid week.

Through DHL Express, HD Fury can ship the Arcana from Taiwan to the US in three days.

Hi @GuitarSuperstar , yes please - do share your setup.  I am still waiting for my Arcana.

Here is my setup with the Arcana.

Mine arrived yesterday and was up and running in ~1min - just the time taken to switch cables around.

Xbox1X → Arcana → [ JVC DLA-RS2000 , Sonos Arc ]

Not noted any issues at all and Sonos was reporting Atmos as soon as I switched the Xbox audio settings.

The Sonos app “TV Setup” says “There is a device interfering with the HDMI connection” and refuses to proceed. I have no idea what function that inhibits but it’s nothing that I’ve run into in my use case.
There’s notes on Arcana discord where a switch of HDMI cable fixed this but didn’t seem to be a clear consensus (my cables are certified HS so assuming not).

When I’ve gotten the message “There is a device interfering with the HDMI connection” I would have to disconnect all of the other HDMI cables that were connected to my TV to get the Sonos app to setup my TV properly. After my TV was setup and CEC was working, I could reconnect the cables and it would continue to work.

Hi! My LG TV can pass through Dolby Atmos (DD+) through HDMI ARC, so when I watch Netflix and Apple TV + or iTunes Movies with the native app, I can get Dolby Atmos... Just would like to know how I can get the most out of the HDFury Arcana? I have some devices (PS4, Blu-ray player, Chromecast Ultra, Android TV box) connect to the TV via a HDMI switch, and connected a Apple TV 4K directly to the TV with another HDMI.

And can anyone advise me how the connection with the HDFury Arcana should be?

If you can already get full audio capabilities from all of your devices with your current setup, then you probably don’t need a device like the Arcana unless you are having lip sync problems.

But your setup with the Arcana could look something like the above diagram using a 5-port HDMI switch.

Can you currently get uncompressed Dolby TrueHD/Dolby Atmos audio from your Blu-ray player?

Thank you so much for your kind advice!! Currently I'm getting Dolby Digital 5.1 for those movies without Dolby Atmos from iTunes Movies (from both the native app from LG TV and Apple TV 4K), if I chose to connect my Apple TV 4K to the HDFury Arcana and then to Sonos Arc, can I get Dolby Digital Plus instead?
