I checked out on the internet and found that my HT (Sony BDV E3200) supports ARC ( audio return channel) , but I didn't get any info about ARC function for my TV (Sony Bravia KLV40R452a )

So please could anyone know or find out does Sony KLV40R452a support ARC (audio return channel) function ?

Check the HDMI ports on the TV. If it supports ARC, it should be mentioned on the HDMI port label.
 
Ok Thanks.

I noticed that using optical cable I am getting sound difference in DD & DD+ channels ie. I am getting crystal clear audio with surround sound in DD channels, but in DD+ channels I am not getting that much quality audio also surround effect is hardly they. Any solution ???

Example Low quality audio in MTunes HD with DD+
But High Quality in Sony ROX HD, MTV Beats HD with DD.

Why so ??
 
MTunes HD audio is not comparable to the other 2 which are far superior. Also the DD+ sound being provided by TS on some channels is not true DD+ but reformatted from the original DD. Some of these are not upto the mark.
 
Ok any reason why TataSky has not provided any option of DD+ on optical SPDIF cable ? Any way I can get DD+ audio without ARC feature TV ?
 
Optical connection technically does not have the bandwidth to carry DD+, which can go upto 7.1 channels. Optical spdif only supports DD 5.1.

You are not losing much by not able to get DD+. TS DD+ is not 7.1 channel. It's only 5.1 channel. So if you are able to get DD 5.1 channel output, that's good enough.
 
Great thnx. I am looking to download Hollywood/Bollywood Blu-ray movies from torrent as I cannot afford original Blu-ray disc cost ₹ 600 to ₹ 800. So do you think torrent bluray .mkv file or other which claims DD 5.1 audio has good enough benchmark quality sound. Or I should go for blue ray.

Also in torrent There are movies files from 1.2 GB to 14GB for the same movie Blu-ray version with DD audio. Which one should I go for ?
 
Also today I found that my Tv supports ARC but when I connected my HT it showed TVs HDMI input as 2ch PCM and Speaker output as Surround. So do you think I be getting 5.1 ch audio from 2ch PCM input from HDMI. Please guyz help me out. ????

What is the source you are playing back on the TV - does it have 5.1 channel audio? Unless it does, the HT will show stereo input. The TV also needs to support DD 5.1.

One other thing - does the TV have a second HDMI port to connect the STB? If it doesn't, this setup is not going to work in any case.

So it all depends on the specs of the equipment.
