Hello,

Here's the problem I'm facing:

A friend gave me his old amplifier Denon AVR 1705. I have a 5.1 system connected to it, my Playstation 4 slim is connected to the TV via HDMI, and there is an optical connection from my TV to the Denon (there is no HDMI output on the amp).

I do everything with my Playstation 4, YouTube, DVD, Blu-ray, etc.

What I would like is to have the sound from my console on my amp through the optical connection.

Despite a good connection (I assume), optical output 1 from the amp set to TV mode which is connected to the TV, I can't get the sound from my console that is sent to my TV via HDMI and then sent to my amp via optical cable.

My TV is a Grundig 40VLE6142C.

Thanks in advance :)

    Hello,
    In the TV sound menu, there should be a conversation to activate the optical output.
    Translation of the manual in Romanian page 47:
     Audio format setting
    You can select whether the audio signal output from the "OpticOut" socket will be in PCM or AC2 format.
    1 Open the menu using "MENU".
    2 Select the "SOUND SETTINGS" menu item using "V" or "Λ" and press "OK" to confirm.
    - The "SOUND SETTINGS" menu appears.
    3 Select "Audio output configuration" using "V" or "Λ" and press "OK" to confirm.
    - The menu appears.
    4 Select "Optical output" using "V" or "Λ".
    5 Select the desired audio format ("PCM" or "Auto") using "<" or ">".


    Very difficult to catch a black cat in a dark room.
    Especially when it's not there...

      Thank you very much, but I solved my problem this morning. The issue was that I had plugged the optical cable into my TV incorrectly....

        No problem... the main thing is that it works.
