XBR55X850C Netflix App does not support DD surround sound

I have a new Sony XBR55X850C 4K TV connected to a new Sony STRDN860 AV receiver. I downloaded and installed the most recent software update for the Sony TV which included Netflix support. However, when I go into the native Netflix app for the TV and select a program to watch my audio option is limited to a 2 channel stereo signal, even though I know that the program comes with 5.1 DD surround sound audio, which I have confirmed using Netflix apps in other devices that I own that are also connected to the AV receiver. This stereo audio limitation is also present in the native Amazon and YouTube apps for the TV. It is not present in the native Vudu app, which does transmit 5.1 channel surround sound audio to my AV receiver. This, plus the fact that multiple other owners of 850C model TVs have all reported the same audio limitation in the AVS forum, suggests that this is a bug in the Sony (Android TV) software and not a defect in everyone's TV. What needs to be done to get this issue resolved? It doesn't make any sense to have to listen to suboptimal audio just to be able to appreciate 4K video.

Hello JerryB01, 
Greetings and thank you for sharing your experience with the XBR55X850C 4K television and A/V receiver  STRDN860, we would like to apologize for the inconvenience regarding the audio options available when using a video application. Our engineering department is aware of this issue and is currently working on a solution to address it and be able to enjoy a Dolby Digital surround sound quality with your receiver, we will be posting updated information as soon as is available.
Thank you for your patience.

  • This app does not support the contract specified or is not installed

    I was successfully creating Windows Store Apps using Visual Studio 2013, using my dev account. VS has recently re-registered my ID as well.
    Today, any Strore App (including "Mail", "Store", "PC Settings"...) not running nor any of project is not launching when I start debugging. It gives dialog as shown below. Also, as the app starts showing as installed in the
    start screen, when I tap it there, it doesn't run. Just splash screen flashes for a few seconds and then disappears.

  • Ios email app does not support user name with multiple "."

    I have two gmail email addresses and have both set up on my ipad, however the ios email app cannot connect to the gmail server for one of the two accounts. Account settings are strictly identical and connection from the Gmail app works fine. The only difference I could find between the two accounts is that the one with connection issues uses a format of "[email protected]" whereas the one that works fine is "[email protected]". Is it a known bug that the ios app does not support the first format?
    Thanks

    Yes, double dots/periods are not allowed.

  • Facebook app does not support my native language

    Hi, can anyone tell me how to make facebook app support a new language. My iphone is able to read the language but the facebook app does not support it at all.
    P.S: the language Im trying to use is Khmer. Thanks

    Since the iPhone has never supported Khmer display, you have perhaps jailbroken it to add this?
    For problems with the Facebook app, contact the people who make it.

  • [FEATURE REQUEST] - dlna client in Xperia WALKMAN Android app does not support flac or ogg files

    Hi, I have found a pretty bad bug in the dlna support in the WALKMAN android app for Xperia phones.
    Please could a mod or a community person who is in contact with the developers, pass this info on to them and ask them to please work on it.
    I have the latest updated Version 8.3.A.0.5 of the WALKMAN android app installed on a SONY XPERIA Z mobile phone and I have a dlna server set up and running on my local network.
    If I download, install and use the DNLA Total Media app available in the Google play store instead of the WALKMAN app, I can play flac and m4a files; no problem.
    However, if I use the WALKMAN app to browse to my dlna server and try to play flac or m4a files, I get a small black box on screen that says "Content not available."
    If I browse to and select an mp3 file instead, the WALKMAN app will play (stream) the mp3 file and no small black box will appear.
    So it looks like the dlna part of the SONY WALKMAN app is missing support for some audio file container types which are supported by default on the Android operating system and work natively in the WALKMAN app (I tested play back from internal storage.) I believe ogg format playback is missing also. Because it is not required by the dlna specification.
    Please improve file type support in the dlna client part of the WALKMAN app for XPERIA phones. People working in professional audio environments don't use mp3 anymore (And haven't done for over five years.)
    Thank You

    Thanks for the feedback!
    As you say, i believe the DLNA standard doesn't have any support for flac and ogg but i've seen some 3:rd party apps that can do it but i'm not sure if those uses DLNA in that case or just UPnP. I will forward your feedback though.
    The only solution for this that i know of today is to use a 3:rd party app or perhaps mount the share using SMB instead from Settings -> Storage.

  • "Invalid Bundle." "...viewer.app does not support the minimum OS version specified in the Info.plist"

    I tried re-building the app and it's not helping. The plist has the minimum OS listed as 6.0. I could go in and try to change it manually but then the signing would be invalid. Please fix this ASAP.

    Apple runs an automated set of verification steps when an application is uploaded to check for various app requirements and sometimes they break those tests. The result is apps that are valid get tagged with seemingly random errors. This, unfortunately, seems to happen most often right around the time of new OS releases.
    App submissions to iTC stuck in "upload received" status is a good example of this kind of problem. On September 9th customers started a thread that covered three different errors from iTunes that started appearing with no notice or warning. All DPS customers were impacted. You can see our progress on the investigation at http://status.adobedps.com/?p=728. We worked furiously through the night to understand why the errors were happening, only to find that they all disappeared by 8:40 the next morning without a single change being provided by Adobe.
    Invalid or Non-Increasing CFBundleVersion is another example from not too long ago where all of a sudden warnings started regarding the version format string. Not only was the warning being thrown, but e-mail messages were being sent to customers with a different explanation of what a valid number was, including the format we were using! We started to investigate and then Apple changed something and the warnings went away. The current warnings people get regarding a "consume:" entry in the app are a similar example. Apple even confirmed for us that we are doing things correctly (although they did suggest a workaround we can apply to suppress the warning, which we are shipping next week).
    Please try the steps I mentioned above, in particular the one about updating Application Loader. If that doesn't resolve the problem we ask for your help by opening a case with Apple Developer Support and asking them to investigate. Once the case is open please send me a private message with the case number so we can work some of our back-channels as well.

    Edit: Fixed the time on the first example, removed Monday. Oops!

  • I have a Sony TV KDL40EX525. It does not support Netflix. Would you know if it works with Apple TV?

    I have a Sony TV KDL-40EX525. FULL HD. LED. It does not support Netflix. Does it works with Apple TV? Sony were not able to help me.

    I'm not sure what you mean about Netflix, but it's not relevant to answering your quesiton. As long as your TV has an HDMI input, Apple TV will connect to it. And AppleTV has a Netflix App, which you can use. You should be fine.

  • AS I  FOUND OUT LATE, LION DOES NOT SUPPORT ROSETTA, WHICH SUPPORTS QUICKEN AND CLASSIC AOL, AND MANY OTHER APPS. CAN I TAKE LION AWAY AND GO BACK TO SNOW LEOPARD?

    I found out after the install of LION, that it does not support Rosetta, which runs Quicken and the classic AOL software and a myriad of other apps.
    Can I go back to Snow Leopard? Is there a way to retrieve my thousands of saved E mails, which are saved on my Mac?
    I still see the filing cabinet with my screen name but cannot get them to open.
    Please help! Lion may roar, but the fact it does not support apps like quicken means it purrs.

    I had the Apple store wiped out my hard drive and I restore my last hard drive downloard by first placing Snow leopard DVD in the DVD drive and holding "C" when turning on the machine then I follow the instructions. I am back on snow leopard and trying out two finance software to replace Quicken for mac 2007. I am trialing Quicken essentials and ibank. They are both compatable with LION. So when I am ready will download Lion again. Also, Micorsoft Office needs to be 2011 version for it to work on Lion

  • I run a studio in Atlanta.  I am doing an upgrade to Protools 11.  Avid does not support Yosemite.  Mavericks is no where to be found on App store.  Had to purchase Mountain Lion.  I am losing money waiting on Apple to "ship" / email me a activation

    I run a studio here in Atlanta.  YEster day morning I called an Apple store to see if I could buy a copy of Mavericks.  They forwarded me to Apple Care.  Apple Care tech and myself could not find Mavericks anywhere on the app store.  Avid does not support Yosemiteam yet, so I had no other choice but to purchase Mountain Lion.  It has been over 24 hours waI ting on Apple to "ship" / email me a code to download from the app store.  I read a lot of horror stories from when they rolled out Mountain Lion in 2012 about it taking 72 hours to receive the codes.  I hope that maybe it doesn't take that l9ng this time because I am losing money by the minute.  Microsoft would have had a code to me in minutes.  This is just crazy.  I have used Apple products for years, but this is very disappointing.  Anyone else ordered Mountain Lion recently?  How long dI'd it take Apple to "ship" you your code via email?  Thanks

    From what I've read on these forums over the past few months, it hasn't gotten any better. An electronic order from any company shouldn't take more than 12 hours for a system to respond to, but people have been waiting up to a week for their redemption code email to arrive. It makes no sense to me why it would take that long.

  • Captivate 7 App packager Browser does not support some of the content message

    Hi
    I have succesfully creating a training app using the app packager for IOS (and to a certain extent android), however when you start the app a message starts up saying :"This browser does not support some of the content in the file you are trying to view.  Use IE 9 or later, Safari 5.1 or later etc. "  The interesting thing is that I am using the latest versions of both safari and chrome?
    I checked out the javascript and and althouth there is an "if then" test, clearly it is not testing correctly.  Has someone got a fix for this e.g. modifications to the code to make it work?

    But I can tell you without reservation that PayPal cannot be used in an iOS app.
