Hello,
my Samsung soundbar is connected to my Samsung television via optical fiber. No matter what I'm watching, and regardless of the mode selected on the soundbar, I'm experiencing this issue:
- the sound is very well amplified (the soundbar shows "Digi.2"), but quite often the sound cuts out and becomes weak, and my soundbar displays "PCM" instead.
Can someone tell me why this happens?
Thank you for your replies.
Best regards,

Hello,
Dust the optical sockets of the TV and the soundbar with a small vacuum cleaner; if there's no effect, change the cable.
Get a quality cable with a good sheath because optical fiber is very fragile, for example:

Hello
You can choose (see instructions on page 14)
according to which mode the sound is interpreted
PCM (Pulse code modulation)
DOLBY
DTS (Digital Theater System)
DiGi. 2 I suppose this indicates that you are using the optical input IN2
PGM that you have chosen the PGM mode
As for the fluctuating sound level, regardless of the advice given by Andy31200, there is a S.Vol (Smart volume) function which aims to stabilize the level in case of sudden variation.. (see instructions on page 16)

Happy holidays.
