General Discussion about Airtel Digital TV

[Tha.RP8]

and in my tv i can select only Stereo as Audio option. DD & DD+ are greyed out

This is one of the ways "terms and conditions" fool people:
When the TV is receiving a 'TV' signal(Terrestrial or cable), the TV will send 5.1 CH sound to the home theater receiver. When the source is a digital component such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / STB satellite receiver and is connected to the TV via HDMI, only 2 CH audio will be heard from the receiver.

I'm also using sony LED 2014 model. and in my TV, sound is always Stereo. I can't change it. though it supports DD sound as per brochure.

Yeah, it's not possible to control volume on STB with DD or DD+ bro.

TV not showing DD/DD+ is an issue. It should show if it's supported since you connected via HDMI port. Try resetting if that's Ok with you. If that doesn't work, check with Sony CC again.

also i have connected my STB to 2nd HDMI Port. My 1st HDMI Port only supports ARC.. Will this be a problem

So you are saying to get 5.1 audio i should connect tv to an external speaker. DVD/Bluray/STB will output only in 2 channel even if tv itself supports 5.1

will try hdmi arc. i told the airtel technician who came to install the STB, we can connect it in first port. TV is wall mount and 1st port is in back side of the TV. He told me there is no need to take the TV, we will connect in side port.

TV is Sony 32W562D - 2016 Model
