    Audio playing back only in mono?

    My apologies; I didn't realise.

    Audio playing back only in mono?

    Oh yes; of course I knew. I just never used them, as the audio goes into the TV via HDMI, then out of the TV to the Yamaha DSP, and on to the soundbar via light pipe.

    Audio playing back only in mono?

    Problem solved; thanks guys! It turns out that the HDMI input on the TV that the HDR-FOX is connected to, had somehow set itself to 'B'; I think I first noticed it following a firmware update, but didn't realise the significance of 'B', so I didn't do anything with it, till I noticed the lack...

    Audio playing back only in mono?

    I haven't tried that; I'll give it a go.

    Audio playing back only in mono?

    I haven't tried that, as the audio feeds are optical, so they either work or they don't; unlike with an analogue cable where it might be possible to get a short or a broken connection, and so lose a channel, or short to mono. I have tried different optical fibre cables, but that made no...

    Audio playing back only in mono?

    The two PVR's and the blu-ray player are connected to the TV via HDMI, and the optical audio out from the TV goes to the optical in on the Yamaha DSP, and then on to the JBL soundbar by optical cable and/or analogue line out; the results are the same regardless of which input is used on the...

    Audio playing back only in mono?

    I discovered recently that my HDR-FOX T2 is only playing back audio in mono, regardless of how the audio settings are set (Stereo/Surround). There isn't even a mono option! This is happening regardless of the source (live off air/recordings off HD/media files on a USB drive). Anyone come across...

    Fitted new HDD to Foxsat HDR

    Hi all, I just replaced the old 320Gb HDD on my trusty old Foxsat HDR with a 1Tb Seagate Pipeline, which was a piece of cake, but how do I install Samba on the new drive so I can access the PVR via my Windows network as previously? Also, is there a simpler way to transfer the files I want to...

    HDR-FOX T2 no longer visible to Windows network following HDD replacement

    That's got it. I didn't realise it was installed before the change of disk! Thanks! :-)

    HDR-FOX T2 no longer visible to Windows network following HDD replacement

    Recently, my HDR-FOX T2 informed me that the internal 500Gb HDD was showing signs of failing, so I bought a shiny new Seagate Pipeline 1Tb to replace it with. Installed the new drive without problem, configured the web IF as previously, copied the data over from the old drive; job done - or so I...

    Sound becomes distorted about once every 24hrs

    I only ever really watch HD material, so I can't say I've noticed if it happens with SD stuff. I never use radio either, and the audio out is only connected via HDMI, so I don't know about analogue either. I think the sound settings on both TV and PVR are set to multi-channel, but if/when the...

    Sound becomes distorted about once every 24hrs

    OK; I'll try that tonight and report back.

    Sound becomes distorted about once every 24hrs

    Sorry! It's not the TV; it only happens when watching the HDR-FOX T2 via HDMI (I also have a Foxsat HDR as well, and it doesn't happen with that, or my blu-ray player, or using the TV's own tuner.)
