PS3 audio issues (optical) - Blu-ray Forum

flo7002 · 06-20-2007, 12:17 AM

I have my PS3 connected to an Onkyo receiver (HT-R340) through an optical cable. However, my surround doesn't seem to work, and when I listen to music there's no bass.

When I connect it to my dvd player through COAX, everything seems to work fine. Not sure what exactly I need to do to the PS or the receiver to get the full sound. Anyone have any clue?

Thanks!

Hmm, no idea. Just connected my PS3 up via optical and it's sending bass.

You did select a codec your reciever supports, yada yada?

I dunno what's up w/ the thing. I guess I'll try to mess around w/ it some more.

Have you tried changing:

Settings > BD/DVD Settings > BD Audio Output Format (Optical Digital)

?

Yeah, it's set on that.

That's not the option to output via optical but to select between Bitstream/ Linear PCM.

hola, I have the same problem, I also have an onkyo, what I do and it always work it`s that I pop up the volume to 60 or 75 and let it there about 5 or 10 seconds, then the bass begins to work.
