Sky puck settings

In Sky Puck, when I go to Settings - Picture and Sound - Sound, I see several options like Auto, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Digital, PCM Stereo, and Passthrough. Which one should I choose?

Whichever one works best for your audio kit. 

If you  have an Atmos capable soundbar or AVR then choose passthrough or Dolby Digital+. 

If you are just connecting to a TV's speakers then choose PCM Stereo. 

There can be variances in lip sync depending on your kit and how it's connected so it's best to experiment until you find the audio format which works best for you.

Automatic. The puck chooses what it thinks is the best format depending on what you're watching.

I'll leave it as auto, which is how it came from the factory. I was looking at the options you gave me and auto is the best.
