Why we only have stereo sound with Apple TV?

How can I have Digital 5.1 or Surround sound when viewing a movie with apple TV?

To begin with provide more information:
Through what are you expecting to get 5.1 sound, how is it connected? HDMI/optical?
Assuming the movie is from itunes store does it specify that is has 5.1 track?  If so check AppleTVs sound settings.

  • Why do I have no sound with Apple TV I get sound through hulu but not Netflix. Why.

    I get audio on iPad through Netflix app I get audio on tv with Hulu plus. Nothing through Netflix nor airplay. How do I fix that?

    if in the settings of the appletv
    one choose surround rather then stereo without having a surround system connected
    all is well when one play media which is not surround
    but when one stumple across something which does then the stereo speakers one have connected play
    front right and left and apart from action and the like most audio and talking is played out of the center speaker
    which you would not have connected because you use stereo

  • I keep getting notified I have an update available but when I try to update I get the following msg ,"You have updates available for other accounts". I only have one account with apple and purchased the software when I got my macbook in Aug 2012.

    I keep getting notified I have an update available but when I try to update I get the following msg ,"You have updates available for other accounts To update this application, sign in to the account you used to purchase it.". I only have one account with apple and the software was preinstalled when I purchased my macbook in Aug 2012 with that account. Has anyone had this problem or know how to find out what account apple needs?

    You log into the App store using the same Apple ID you used to set the computer up, verify that none of your apps are hidden and that they have all be accepted and then download and install the update
    for help contact the App store support - link is on the right ot the App store window

  • Why is Adobe Flashplayer not working with Apple? Do you have an other flash program you recommend?

    Thank you for your interest in Adobe Flash Player. Unfortunately Apple does not allow Flash Player to be installed on iPhone or iPad.
    May I add, this is the answer I get When I try to Download Adobe Flash Player
    You get the message because that is exactly the situation. Apple has not allowed any Flash on iOS devices.
    What site are you trying to see? Many sites now provide Flash alternatives. For example, if you want to listen to Pandora, instead of using the Flash on the Pandora website, instead you download the Pandora app for the iPad.
    In the future, even if Apple wants to add Flash to the iPad, it won't be able to because Adobe will no longer be making it at all, for any mobile device:

    If you often go to sites that use a lot of Flash and they don't have an alternative, you should write to them and tell them to stop using Flash.

    Hello John, I figured it was a signal issue. All the speakers fire and the sound is great. I was running the speakers thru a Dell PC with a Creative X-Fi Elite Pro, THX Certified, 7.1 soundcard using a fiber optic from the Mac Pro to the Z906's, it worked great until the Dell died!!! When I bought the soundcard from Creative I also bought the GigaWorks S750, THX Certified, 700 watt, 7.1 speaker system, used the speakers for 11 years and then the woofer/amp said "I QUIT" Creative quit making the speaker system and the sound card. The satellite speakers from the Creative GigaWorks speaker system still sound great (rated at 78 watt each) and are a little better speaker than the one's that came with the Z906 and the wattage from the 906 is sufficient to drive the satellites without any distortion. Thank you for addressing my issue, you confirmed what I suspected all along, just needed to hear it from someone with the same setup.
    One last question, I purchased a Diamond Multimedia USB Soundcard, can't use the fiber optic(not supported by Mac) but the green, tan and black RCA's plug in and produces adequetly. When you plug your 906's into the Mac Pro using the fiber optic how do you set your speaker configuration? When I plug into the mac pro with fiber optic the 'Audio Midi Setup' does not seem to see the 5.1 configuration. Any thoughts there?

  • I have surround sound with my LCD TV.  Will my new iPad into an HDML connection be able transmit surround sound via Utube, iTunes or whatever?

    I have surround sound with my LCD TV.  Will my new iPad into HDML connection and Utube, iTunes etc. produce surround sound?

    ATV definitely supports AC3 DD 5.1... etc, but definately not through AirPlay, only streamed through the inet.
    I also found, in the case of Netflix, that the AC3 is preserved in the highest bandwidth mode but not available in the lowest. (frankly i did not test the intermediate bandwidth)
    I was quite pleased with the sound and picture from Netflix.
    I am not so patiently waiting for AirPlay to support AC3 DD or DDPlus because I record my home video in %.1 surround (AVCHD) and can preserve it through Final Cut Pro and DVD or Red Laser, but cannot use the intended cable replacement (AirPlay) to play them.
    Bummer..
    I think/hope if more people request surround sound via AirPlay Apple may then follow through on this otherwise good idea.
    FWIW

    Hi backpacker1952,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you already have an iTunes Gift balance on your account, you can browse and buy music like you would if you were paying with a credit card. You may find the information in this article helpful:

  • Why do i have to enter my apple id for every purchase

    Why do I have to enter my apple id for every purchase in the app store. I thought the new ios would remember it every time.

    It only "remembers" such for 15 minutes after the first purchase. This is done for security reasons. It is app updates that no longer require a password.

  • LaCie 6TB drive ejects when Air sleeps: I use two 6TB LaCie drives - home and office with my Air, which travels with me. Only have a problem with one. Is there a fix?

    LaCie 6TB drive ejects when Air sleeps: I use two 6TB LaCie drives - home and office with my Air, which travels with me between the locations. Only have a problem with one that inappropriately ejects when the Air sleeps (and only sometimes). Is there a fix? I've read others who believe that the problem is with the operating system (I'm using 10.9.2). But my problem suggests that it's with one of the LaCie's. Any suggestions about how to fix?

    Lacie doesnt make HD, thats a Seagate inside the box.
    Is there a fix?
    Yes, get a 4TB max HD,    6TB drives are both new and have known issues,  ...in fact so do most all 4TB drives.
    my problem suggests that it's with one of the LaCie's
    You mean Seagate
    Large external hard drives are great! Large external hard drives are horrible
    It is a common premise that people are overjoyed at the dropping prices per terabyte on external hard drives, and the first thing that enters most peoples minds is "great, I can put all my stuff on one drive,... all of it!" However considerations need to be made in creating a giant single choke point for not mere data loss, but seriously large data loss. If there is at the very least yet another redundant copy, this is fine, otherwise do not consider it whatsoever. Some 3TB and 4TB drives of all mfg. have, at the time of this writing, reliability concerns currently and best recommendation is staying at 2TB drives or less.
    Advantages and disadvantages of larger 3TB and 4TB external drives must be weighed
