Dual Audio Output?!? - Blu-ray Forum

ToonyLoons · 05-08-2008, 09:52 PM

As I was watching some videos and playing the HAZE demo, I noticed a slight echo. It seems that my PS3 is outputting audio via HDMI to my TV and Optical to my HT. I know that when you set up audio, it is either one or the other, not both. I have had this happen once before but did not know how it happened. I would perfer it this way so I dont always have to use my HT, but I dont want to change the settings each and every time I want to switch.

Does anyone else have a simular set up to see if they are getting dual audio output also? As far as I know, this just happened for me today, but there have not been any system updates.

I would just unplug the optical to your HT unless your going to use your HT(I take it you mean surround sound). That sounds like the easiest fix

Yeah HT = home theater.

If I wanted to go through the trouble of unplugging and reconnecting, why would I not just change the settings each time instead?

As far as I know, this is just another glitch and the dual output will not last. I just wanted to see if anyone else was experiancing this or not.

Oh I get this glitch at least 3x a week! I wish this was just an option not a glitch, haha because I have a headphone connector I can use for my TV.

Sometimes I have friends who want to play on my PC (connected to my receiver HT) and then I want to play my ps3.
I can do this by checking the HDMI, but with the dual audio output glitch I didn't have to.
