@kr4 Most excellent catch.
No HDMI out from 4K 85" Sony
HDMI from the Sony TV goes to a Bryston SP3 processor, but the SP3 sees no HDMI input and consequently there is no audio. All the HDMI ports of the TV seem to be inputs, even HDMI 3 (eARC). Video input to the TV via HDMI from the Ayre DX-5 DSD disc player works fine. Is there a switch that needs to be set for HDMI output?

Sony support confirms both ends need to be eARC. An option is optical, but that may not provide better sound than the surprisingly good sound with the Sony speakers, although I think it could provide surround, I'll give it a try.
As an aside, I was a bit disappointed the beautiful 85" video didn't quite have the impact of the 100" 1080p projection it replaced. I'll keep my Stewart screen. Maybe someday the price of 4K projectors will come down. |
@carlsbad2 Great!
Sadly this will not work for processors/receivers which don't support eARC like the OP. |
