Re: Apple TV , HDMI and lack of digital sound
said by Count Zero  :Have any other products had trouble with those TVs? PS3s or XBox 360s or BluRay players? Just wondering. some folks reported issues with PS3's but that seemed to have been a while ago.... like I said Apple acknowledges the HDMI port has issues with Samsungs no real complaints from Sharp users found. My PS3 works find with the TV same HDMI ports.

You aren't running your AppleTV through a receive I am guessing? |

| the idea was to run all HDMI through the TV and via single digital out on TV get to the receiver. Worked very well with old TV.. a little disappointed about this issue.

Hmm...come to think, my LG has some issues 'seeing' the HDMI signal at first. I haven't tried different cables (because the bastards are expensive!), but I'd always assumed it was a cable problem before it was a TV/Apple TV issue. (Mind you, I bought the expensive gold/silver HDMI cable...) So, who knows! I find it appalling that there would be any issues with a connection standard that's supposed to be vastly superior to the old RCA cables. |

Sure do - my Onkyo does full 1080p upconversion from any source (granted I only have a 720p TV). |
