I have just attached my new Sonos arc to my Sony A1e and the only audio input I see on the arc is Stereo pcm. I have tried testing films from both an Apple TV plugged into the Sony tv and the Netflix app on the Sony tv but I get the same result . I know the Sony only has ARC, not eARC, but I would have expected to at least get Dolby digital into the  Arc. Any ideas what connections or settings I can try?

Hi thanks man, that’s worked by changing to the format ON setting- thanks so much!

Set the TV to these settings (if available):

Digital Audio Out: Auto 1

Dolby Digital Plus Output: Dolby Digital Plus

Pass Through Mode: Auto

 

And set the Apple TV to this audio setting:

Change Format: OFF

If this setting doesn’t work, set Change Format to ON and set the Audio Format to Dolby Digital 5.1.
