[39L1350U] No sound OTA and blinking Dolby Digital icon

I'm having a weird issue that just starting happening like a week or two ago. Around 10-11pm On some OTA channels the audio will just cut out and the Dolby Digital icon will blink. Changing the channel will fix it temporarily but it seems to stop happening come 11:30pm. Note that if I turn on an external receiver it too will not have any sound. I'm also running what should be the newest TV firmware, v1.1.13 Sept 3 2013.
Here's a video of the issue, note that you can see that the signal strength shows full bars at the 0:09 mark.

You may want to try resetting the TV to factory settings as explained on page 57 of the user's guide. If that doesn't help, you could call customer support.

Dtt3500 and Audigy Gamer, digital output only 2 channel unless its D

Ok I recieved a response concerning my last comment but unfortunatly it did not answer my question at all. I have a DTT3500 and a sound blaster Audigy Gamer hooked up with the digital out to the /8 din adapter. I try the advanced 3d demo that came with the Audigy software and I only hear the front 2 channels, no center and no rears. The demo where you move the little icons and sound moves along with it. I have 5. activated in my windows control center along with audioHQ and digital out only is selected. my DTT3500 has 4./5. digital selected along with dolby digital/pcm audio and digital in. I am not getting the effect of multisurround at all. My center works and my rears work because playing music I can use all 5 speakers. When I use the analogue outputs I hear multisurround from the advanced 3d demo but my center doesnt work. The analogue setup sounds better but without a center channel its useless to me. Am I doing something wrong? I am using the adapter and digital DIN, what gives? The only reason I noticed I wasnt getting surround was while playing games nothing comes from behind you even on 5. games. The goldmine demo doesnt even work right, when the bird flys behind you it disappears but there is still sound from the rears. Analogue fixes this without a center but the manual and setup say to use the digital din. Do I just have a setting wrong? I would like to experiance the full capacity of multispeakers in my games.

Dennis,
With these speakers the connection that I would suggest would be to use the Digital out on the back of the sound card into the DIN Input on the DTT3500's. This will require a converter cable for /8'' Minidin to standard DIN which can be purchased from here:
http://us.creative.com/products/prod...0&product=0375
You will also need a standard DIN cable (one should have shipped with your DTT3500's).
This should give you 5. with digital output only enabled on the Audigy.

MSI GTX 580 Lightning XE - no DTS-HD and no Dolby Digital TrueHD?

Hello,
I have just upgraded from the gtx 460 to 580 Lightning XE and the above audio formats are gone. I thought the 280.26 drivers caused it so I went back to 275.33 and DTS-HD and DD TrueHD are still missing.
Since the gtx 460 supports these formats I presumed that the 580 does as well.
In Playback Devices > Supported Formats, only 3 formats are listed: DTS Audio, Dolby Digital Plus and Dilby Digital
In Nvidia Control Panel, the HDCP is not supported when I select my TV/amp. When I had my tv/amp connected via hdmi cable to gtx 460, all was functioning correctly, all formats were listed.
PowerDVD and Total MediaTheater worked perfectly fine playing dts-hd an dd truehd from bluray discs, now these formats are just not available anywhere. Only normal DTS and DD is played.
I really hope that this is a software issue
DTS-HD and DD TrueHD are supported from HDMI 1.3 version. The GTX 580 chip supposedly supports HDMI 1.4a. NVIDIA and MSI please fix it!
Here's the fix request form, please can as anyone request a fix through this form? http://nvidia-submit.custhelp.com/app/ask
The chip 580 should support DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD.

have you tried msi's drivers too? http://www.msi.com/product/vga/N580GTX-Lightning-Xtreme-Edition.html#/?div=Driver&os=Win7%2032
No I haven't. I didn't even think of that. I always go for the official nvidia drivers. I'm downloading it now.
edit: Installed them drivers, and no change. DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD are still missing.
I found some "info" here:
http://www.anandtech.com/show/4008/nvidias-geforce-gtx-580/4
Quote
NVIDIA slightly revised their display controller for GF110/GTX580; the good news is that HDMI 1.4a is supported, the bad news is that full audio bitstreaming is not supported so it’s the same as it was on the GTX 480: 8 channel LPCM and lossy audio formats like DD+ and DTS. This actually caught us off-guard since we were expecting the full GF104 treatment here, but it just goes to show that this is a GF100-derrivative after all. Unfortunately this also extends to the number of displays supported – NVIDIA still only supports 2 displays on one card, so you need to run in SLI if you intend to take advantage of 3DVision/NVIDIA surround across 3 monitors.
If that's true, it doesn't look good..

How to get Dolby Digital from ATV2 and iTunes Movies??

I have an ATV2 hooked up to my Denon 789 AVR via optical cable, and the HDMI hooked directy to my HTDV. My Denon is receiving the signal apparently as a PCM and thus, only receiving 2 channel. When I stream an iTunes movie from my ATV2, I only get Dolby Pro Logic II, and not Dolby Digital. When I go into the ATV2 settings and under Audio and Video set Dolby Digital from "Auto" to "On", I don't get any sound on my Denon 1910. Any idea what's going on?

ATV 2G, iOS 4.2 Update and Dolby Digital not playing

I'm hoping a few folks here have experienced the same issue and can point me in the right direction. I realize that there have been a few threads about this, perhaps with a slightly more pointed question I can at least get something going. To wit:
I recently upgraded to iOS4.2. Everything runs fine, except the Dolby Digial output. If I have this enabled/auto, and I select a video to play, it will hang indefinitely while it attempts to load. These movies all worked under the previous firmware version, and selecting Dolby Digital output "off" allows the movie to play as it normally had (albeit without 5.1). What changed between versions that now causes this error to occur? What do I need to do on my end to get 5.1 audio working like it was prior to upgrading to 5.1?
This is very frustrating!

It's a bug, it effects ALL ATV 2 units running iOS 4.2 and 4.2.1. The bug was introduced at iOS 4.2. There are various workarounds to get your DD to play. Easiest is to start the video, press down arrow, skip to end, let ATV go to menu, select video again (it will play now with DD, if it doesn't just do steps over again).
If you are not effected then you are just not doing it right, but you DO have the bug.
The bug has been logged with Apple, feel free to log it again or call and complain. There is not an issue with your ATV physical hardware. Its a software bug. It is repeatable with ANY ATV 2 unit.

Dolby Digital Live and Old Audigy Platinum Card

I have an now well aged Home Brew Computer based on an Asus P4PE MB, 2.4 Ghz P4, gig ram, SATA Raid 0, Plenty of HD free space. I went on a campaign to speed up the old beasty a little before I start thinking of a replacement some months down the road. I picked up a NOS (New Old Stock) Audigy Platinum Sound Card to lower the load on the processor and give me some more options like a digital input that my built in AC97 didn't have.
The SB Card worked pretty well at first. Hooked it up to an inexpensi've home theater I have in the room through its digital (front panel SPDIF) and we were off to the races. It all worked great. The sound was excellent, the system seemed to work better. The only problems were related to the usual issues with using a home theater with a computer digital output.
Along came the latest release of the driver and the Dolby Digital Li've. Now I seem to have the following issues:
Use DDL and you can't lock it into a 96K sample rate affecting sound quality
Many music files I was playing just fine now have what I guess could be termed "blanking." You get some very quick blank spots. Just an instant each time but enough to wreck the fun.
CTAIdSvc.exe is running all the time and eating processor resources. A quick check with the task manager sees it gyrating from 3 to about 3 percent continuously. This is at all times regardless of any use of sound.3% is bad enough. Running over 0% is no good.
Soooo, now I look to see if I can do a comparison between with and without DDL installed. Uhhhhhhhh, where is that part of the thing installed? Seems not to have anything in add\remove programs.
Also, what is with all the other stuff running related to this sound card. Licensing application? CT Helper, Ctsvccda, etc..
I'll probably try to remove the driver by re-running its install then try it with and without the Dolby thing. Maybe reinstalling the driver removes DDL

First of all it is not personal. I have nothing against you guys, your're not responsible for drivers development/testing. I'm fed up mostly with all those responsible for releasing buggy software without making proper checks if it will work. I know that you cannot say anything but I believe these guys are giving you headache as well; they don't have to listen complaints and deal with angry customers. First thing I would do is to get rid of your test manager . Releasing something without doing proper tests is just unacceptable; especially when product is suppose to reach thounsands of customers. Could you at least tell if driver developers were informed about this issue and trying to solve the problem? I'm buliding new machine and have to consider change of my soundcard; such information would very usefull. Cheers.

Question for Dolby Digital and

Hello. I have a SoundBlaster Platinum soundcard,DDTS-00 Decoder and GigaWorks S750 speakers and I have a problem when seeing movies from my PC.When I use the speakers with Playstation2 with optical cable when the movie has Dolby Digital or DTS sound the option on the decoder turns on that shows the sound mode.When I'm using the speakers with PC and I connect them with coaxial or optical cable and I choose from the sound menu of the DVD program (Cyberlink DVD)what sound I want the option on sound mode of the Creative decoder doen't change.What is going on?Could you tell me what to do?I think that I hear Dolby Surround and not Dolby Digital Neo:6 and DTS:ES. Thank you.Message Edited by pangef on 07-8-2006 06:38 AM

With your PC, set it up to S/PDIF. This way it by passed all software decoding and leaves it to your speakers .
IMHO, if people have speakers that can decode DD 5./DTS then use S/PDIF all the way
I have tested useing software decoders and then using S/PDIF pass through and found the sound is better via S/PDIF.
Hope that hel

G510 Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio doesnt work driver problem with Windows 8.1

Hi,
my Lenovo G510 has Windows 8.1 64-bit.
In the system menue of Hardware and Sound I can see two entries:
1) Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio
2) Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio (32-bit)
Clicking on the first entry a control panel appears. Does this mean that Dolby Digital Plus Advanced Audio is always running in the backround? There is no entry in the systray.
Clicking on the second entry this error message appears:
Your current installed version is 7.3.2.2 of the Dolby Digital Plus audio driver. The software needs the driver version 7.5.1.1. Installe a correct combination of driver and software.
What to do with this? I searched for a solution and drivers but couldn´t find anything.
Thanks for your help.
Solved!

Dolby Home Theater V4 changed to Dolby Digital Plus after Realtek Audio Driver update Windows 8.1

Hi,I'm now using Ideapad Z510. After upgraded to Windows 8.1. I'd went to the Lenovo website searching for new driver update.
But, after i install the "Realtek Audio Driver 6.0.1.7023", the "Dolby Home Theater V4" is not running(audio sound not playing through).And, the "Dolby Digital Plus" is running instead of "Dolby Home Theater V4".
Then, when I try to reinstall the older version "Realtek Audio Driver 6.0.1.6954" from Lenovo website, the "Dolby Home Theater V4" is running again.
Truly, the "Dolby Digital Plus"'s sound is crisper and louder than "Dolby Home Theater V4". But the sound of "Dolby Home Theater V4" has more bass and more function (like Graphic Equalizer, more Intelligent Equalizer etc.).
Is this an update or what?
What should I choose?The newer driver (for Windows 8.1) or older driver (for Dolby Home Theater V4)? Thanks. (confused now) @@

Hi all
Could you try out DAA or DHTLightweight from my link and just install the Dolby software without overriding your Realtek Driver? I am not sure whether would it work, but worth a try. I have tried on Y460, W520 and G560 with great experience.
If the older Dolby software does not work with your existing Realtek driver, you could install the DAA or DHTLightweight with their driver to overwrite and see how it goes.
Thank You
Peter

DTT3500 Speaker sysem-no digital out

Hello All,
I have had my system for I guuess about 3 or 4 yrs. now. All of a sudden, it seem the decoder portion of the system is not working. When I select SPDIF in Power DVD, there are no sounds from the speakers, and, the Dolby digital light at the bottom of the decoder box, no longer lights up. If i select 4 or 6 speahker setup in Power DVD, all sounds from all speakers do come out. I suspect the the decoder is shot. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks,
Alski

Hello, I also have the same problem, do you have solved this problem?

Dolby Digital or Surcode Dolby Digital

Hello, i'm new here, have a question, don't know if it's been asked before, but here it goes:
Is there any big difference between Dolby Digital and Surcode Dolby Digital when you encode on Media Enconder, if i just encode with the regular Dolby Digital will it be 5.1? is it really a noticeable difference from the Surcode?

Jeff,
Thank you for the info. If I understood everything, then one would need a SurCode DD 5.1 SS plug-in specific to Encore too.
Also, as Encore only has passthrough capabilities for DD 5.1 SS, and it cannot be monitored there, it would also seem that Encore would have to be rewritten in the Preview module, to accommodate the 5.1 SS playback.
With the "old-fashioned" method, one could easily monitor their DD 5.1 SS in PrPro, just not once it is Imported (AC3 DD 5.1 SS) into Encore, though it will write to DVD/BD.
Now, one other consideration - $. The Minnetonka SurCode plug-in for PrPro prices out with little profit for Minnetonka. They pay enough in licensing fees to Dolby Labs, that even a second license is not discounted beyond the Adobe-user discount. Then, the user would have to acquire a separate plug-in for En, at about another US$250. I wonder how many would shell out a possible total of US$500 to use ADL for DD 5.1 SS, even if it WAS available?
Until such time, we can just Export/Import and go get that cup of coffee! At least for US$250, we do have a workflow, albeit one with a few more steps.
Appreciated,
Hunt
PS - all of a sudden ADL between PrPro & En does not temp me quite so much.

Dolby Digital or AC-3 from MP4 files

I have MP4 files which I have made that have one stereo soundtrack and one Dolby Digital soundtrack. Is there any kind of plugin so that the latter can be played by Quicktime?
I have tried VLC as an alternate player. The AC-3 soundtrack does not lock this app up (as it does with Quicktime), but VLC will not play it in surround, either.
I've tried this with my iMacG5, my iBook G4, and my new Mac Mini. I'm using an M-Audio Transit with the Mini. It works fine for AC-3 from DVD Player but not with MP4 files with pass thru AC-3.
Does anyone have a suggestion for any other "super tight" video encoding that will preserve multi-channel sound? (My understanding is that H.264 only supports 2 channel sound.)
Thanks.

In the Properties for: Built-in Output under "Audio Output" on the right I have:
Source: Digital Out
Format: 48000.0 Hz 2ch-24bit
Is that OK or should I change it to something else?

Multi-channel audio? How ? (Dolby Digital, PCM etc.)

So,
Take 2 now support 5.1 channels audio out, at least for some HD rentals.
I am wondering if anyone has gotten that to work.
I have Apple TV connected via HDMI to my receiver (which can decode both the bitstream as well as linear PCM for multi-channel tracks).
However, I don't seem to get any multichannel, and the Dolby Digital toggle in Apple tunes makes no difference.
Has anyone gotten 5.1 to work, and if so, which which movie/tv show/trailer?
Thanks,
Dan

1. Not a great fan of detaching audio except in multicam clips. Generally I'd suggest using the expand audio components function to access the channels.
2. Yes. Switch off the auto tracks in the browser and only turn them back on for the clips you need in the project. With expanded audio components, if you turn the channels back on they will reappear in the timeline.
3. You use roles for this. I know time is tight for news, but taking a few moments to assign roles to the clips in the borwser, which you can do in globally, will allow you to export with separate tracks.
