In Topic: Octagon SF8008 OpenPli Support

30 March 2020 - 16:57

First of all thanks a lot Open Pli team for your positive decision to support an Octagon 8008 box. It is a great machine with huge satellite potential (4k, dvb-s2x, multistream + t2-mi).

Anyway, I `ve got a question in regards to AC3 sound that can be received these days on many satellite channels.

If I select AC3 sound on the viewed channel and downmixing is off, I can get no sound. Yes, downmixing works OK if its` on, but it`s like switching from a BMW to a less comfy car if you know what I mean...

If there`s a surround sound on the channel, why to downgrade to stereo only?

Is this problem related to DD licence or is this only a bug that can be fixed at some point. I have used to use my old VU+ Uno and AC3 sound works like a charm even it is a pretty old HD receiver...

 

Thanks for any suggestions or explanation.
