    Disney+ Hotstar Surround sound help

    Posted: 06 May 2021 05:51 AM PDT

    Hi,

    I'm trying to watch disney+ on my Bravia A1 in India. This is hooked up by an optical cable to a Yamaha YSP-3000 soundbar. The splash screen for the programmes show a Dolby 5.1 logo - and the audio options displays two choices, a 5.1 and 2.0. Even with the 5.1 option selected by default, the soundbar receives only a 2.0 PCM output. I've tried changing various settings on the TV but nothing seems to help. Other apps like Netflix, Prime video, and my PS4 all output surround. I'd be grateful for some guidance. Here's some information on software/app versions and such.

    Many thanks in advance.

    Does Google dislike Dolby?

    Posted: 05 May 2021 08:48 AM PDT

    When Play Movies and TV service launched, Google chose HE-AAC as the official audio codec instead of Dolby Digital Plus, I remember many users complaint about this decision, so they end up supporting Dolby Digital Plus after all though Dolby Atmos metadata is still not supported. HE-AAC is still used as an optional codec.

    YouTube has never supported Dolby Audio, instead, Google chose AAC-LC as the audio codec for multichannel audio, however, this codec is transcoded to Dolby Digital by some Smart TVs when using the HDMI-ARC port or the SPDIF port; unfortunately, external boxes don't perform this transcoding so they must be connected to a multichannel AV receiver in order to get multichannel PCM. Currently, multichannel audio on YouTube seems to be capped or limited to an unknown number of devices, it was supported on web browsers, game consoles but they just downmix the audio to stereo. The only Android TV box that still seems to be supporting this is the Nvidia Shield. Dolby Digital patents already expired according to its Wikipedia page: "In Dolby's 2005 original and amended S-1 filings with the SEC, Dolby acknowledged that "Patents relating to our Dolby Digital technologies expire between 2008 and 2017. The last patent covering AC-3 expired March 20, 2017, so it is now generally free to use". That means Google can start using Dolby Digital on YouTube because it's now free.

    Music streaming services have started to support lossless Hi-Fi audio, Tidal, Deezer, Spotify and Amazon Music already offer that audio tier, with Tidal and Amazon Music supporting Dolby Atmos Music. Now Apple just seems to be readying the service to also support HiFi audio, Dolby Atmos and Dolby Audio.

    Apple Music may soon feature support for lossless HiFi audio, Dolby Audio

    Google Play Music never offered a HiFi audio tier while YouTube Music still offers a single lossy AAC tier. Even music uploaded to the service in lossless formats such as FLAC, are converted to AAC afterwards.

    Will Google follow suit?

    I know part of the reason relies on licencing costs but is that an impediment for Google?

    Share your thoughts.

    Best brands to go with?

    Posted: 05 May 2021 04:34 PM PDT

    I really, really like Android TV (OS). But my current TV is just not cutting it. I'm not complaining. I knew going in that a budget TV was going to give me issues eventually. I just wanted to give Android TV a try and see if I liked it and I needed a cheap set for then and there.

    Well, I've fallen in love with the OS. And I'm ready to purchase something long term. Can anyone give me their personal experiences with sets that perform well, and continue to perform well over time? I really want something that won't slow down to a crawl on me after a few months of use. I've heard good things about Sony of course, anything else to consider?

    Posted: 05 May 2021 11:38 AM PDT

    Not sure if anyone here might know, but I have an A90J and trying to send commands via Google Home to do things like switching inputs for the TV usually work. However, going to specific sections like opening up Settings or going to the Home screen on the TV don't seem to function.... Thoughts?

    Google TV skin on tablets

    Posted: 05 May 2021 09:51 AM PDT

    Is there a way to get "Google TV" skin from chromecast to a tablet?

    Use case: I want simplify an tablet that I use. This tablet is to be used as a mini-android tv, ideally with the same interface/skin. For my mom, the standard Android skin, no matter what I do, is still too complicated.
