Hello,

I have 3 HDMI outputs on my TV, but apparently only 1 is working. The TV is new. It was working fine at first. Is it a settings issue?

Configuration: Android / Chrome 96.0.4664.45

Hello
On my TV, I have 3 HDMI outputs,
wrong, three inputs!

only one works at a time, you have to select the desired source, e.g.:
-PC
-cable decoder
-internet decoder

Hello,

Depending on its use, it is common for only one to comply with the ARC standard when, instead of an optical cable, it is used to carry image and sound from certain devices.

Thank you for your response. I have an Orange TV decoder connected to HDMI2, and a home cinema system connected to HDMI1 ARC to have continuous sound. Since I activated ARC, only this input works.
I hope this is clearer.

Well, me too, and with an old TV, I have 3 or 4 (I can't remember) HDMI devices, one of which is ARC, and everything works.

Either the source is poorly chosen from the TV (using its remote control, not the Box's) or, a more frequent error, we start on a device that has its own tuner thinking we are watching TV, since we have picture and sound, instead of watching TNT or TV through the Box.

In this regard, a wiring or setting error in the TV's video or audio output menu should also be considered.

Now, if we redirect the video and audio streams via ARC to the Home Cinema, as soon as I select the relevant HDMI port as the source, it works, it's stupid, and it obeys: all streams go through the Home Cinema, some having a menu allowing to "backtrack" by selecting the source.
