Trying to set up my LG SP2 Soundbar with my LG C1

[elthompo27]

Hi all. 

I wondered if anybody could help me with the above issue. 

I am wanting to get the set-up just right with my new Soundbar & TV. I have connected it up via hdmi eARC. Everything seems okay, until I started looking into the setting on the sky box. 

It has the choice of normal, Dolby digital & Dolby digital plus. Can somebody tell me which is the best for my Soundbar please?

thanks 👍👍

Hi @elthompo27 

Dolby Digital plus if your Soundbar is capapable..

If you are going direct to TV with the Q box then your TV also needs to be capable of passing DD+ through the eArc connection.

Edit

Looking at the spec of the Soundbar it doesn't appear to have eArc and therefore unlikely to be able to accept DD+

hi @elthompo27 

A quick look at  the sound bar Specs would indicate it can only handle Dolby Digital so I don't think DD+ is an option -although being a 2.1. speaker set up I doubt you would hear any difference

Brill. 

I didn't want to have it set on a setting it can't handle. I'll change it to Dolby Digital. 

thanks 👍
