LG 55UH770V - audio issues

Hi,

 

I am hoping someone can help, as I've not been having any joy elsewhere.

 

I have an LG 55UH770V running the latest firmware/software.

 

I connect to my A/V receiver via HDMI 2 (ARC) and for TV apps (Netflix, Plex) have surround sound.

 

I connect my Xbox One and PS4 to HDMI 1 and 3 respectively. Up until yesterday I would then have surround sound, via ARC, playing from my A/V system for the PS4 and XBox One.

 

Yesterday, I noticed that the sound from the PS4 was only in stereo. On checking, the same is true for Xbox One. The Xbox will not even allow me to now select 5.1 or 7.1 in the audio set up, saying my receiver (i.e. the TV) does not support it. The TV apps, remain fine, playing surround sound

 

I cannot understand why this has suddenly happened or how to solve it.

 

Any help is appreciated.

In the words of FE Smith, I am none the wiser, but better informed.

 

The problem appears to be limited to audio output from the consoles which is linear PCM. If I set the Xbox One or PS4 audio settings to bitstream and either Dolby or DTS, and provided that the digital sound out on the LG is set to auto (instead of PCM), then I have surround sound. However, if the audio output on the PS4 is set to linear PCM or on the Xbox One is set to uncompressed 5.1 or 7.1 (which I guess is linear PCM), then this is not detected by the TV, and I simply get stereo, irrespective of whether I have the digital sound out set to auto or PCM.

 

Will be calling LG tomorrow!

      HDMI ARC - Audio Out Not Working (Again)
      By jikhead
      I'm not getting any audio from the apps via the HDMI via ARC connection to my receiver.  This occurred two weeks ago and was unable to resolve it, but ironically there was new firmware released that same day for my B6 (3/31/17) and this fixed the issue.  However, now I again can't get it working after a TV reset and tinkering with the audio settings again.  I tried to load the firmware again, but it appears this is not possible to forceable load the same firmware.

      Default audio selection is never remember on TV start
      By starwoodtech
      I have a 65 Inch LG OLED evo AI C4 4K Smart TV 2024 - Model OLED65C4PUA.ACC. here have been a many weird things happening. This is one of them:
      Whenever I turn on my TV, it doesn't remember the audio settings I chose before. I repeatedly need to set my audio for the input I am using. I ofter select APPLY TO ALL INPUTS to try and make sure it's the same regardless of which input I use, but it still reverts all changes.
      Does anyone know what this happens?

      Issues with LG TV and weird WiFi behaviour
      By Guest
      I recently bought a new router (Unify Dream Router) and after a couple of weeks of struggle, I managed to set it up with my ISP's VDSL connection (FFTC) using a third party modem in bridge mode (NETGEAR D6400).
      Everything seemed to be working fine until I realised I couldn't open the Netflix app on my LG Smart TV. After a bit of investigation, I realised nothing except for YouTube and the Browser was working. Just to make this clear: the WiFi connects fine, I can access all websites through the LG Browser, and I have no issues with YouTube, but nothing else works.
      All the regular streaming apps fail to open and, most importantly, the LG Content Store fails to load. Before I fixed my network, the tv was working fine. If I switch to my phone's hotspot, everything works fine.
      Things that I've tried:
      factory resetting the tv leaving the tv unplugged to delete cache using google's DNS on the TV using a wired connection  Having said so, I am so lost that I would be happy to try anything again.

      Magic Remote Pointer and other Issues
      By Speedemon
      I have a UK6300 LG TV. It has always worked faultlessly. However it now will not show the pointer unless I restart it and then it only there of only for 20 seconds and then it is gone. The LAN cable notification constantly disconnects and reconnects. The Web Browser no longer opens on my selected page. The Software version is the latest and when I tried to manually update the software in case the auto update got corrupted it will not recognize the USB drive as having the software on it. The software browser version is 05.50.15.
      Any ideas what to do. I have two other LG TV's and all work perfectly.

      which new tv can have audio outputs to both bluetooth headphones and internal speaker at the same time?
      By coltaz
      i currently have a LG oled55cx tv which has not got an audio out setting for bluetooth headphones + internal at the same time. the nearest option is bluetooth surround + internal but the sound on the headphones is very poor and distorted. i'm currently having to run a wire to my headphones if my wife is watching tv as well. are there any other brands or ranges out there which has a bluetooth headphone + internal sound out option. thanks.
