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?

Got it working as you describe....not sure I'll keep it this way as it is more convenient to leave my 2 channel sound playing through my main system for occasional TV...but good to know I've got it working. thanks.

@carlsbad2 Great!

 

Sadly this will not work for processors/receivers which don't support eARC like the OP.

With copyright and piracy laws changing constantly the lawyers have more to do with technology being released than the engineers do. If you are stuck in some kind of "hook up" middle ground look into a company called HDFury they definitely have what you are looking for including ARC/eARC, good luck. Cheers
