If this was asked already please let me know. Wonder if anyone else has this problem. I have my cable box hooked to my tv via hdmi, audio to my tuner via optical audio. I was getting 5.1 sound until recently. Now I only get stereo. I have my ps3 hooked up the same way and that gets 5.1 Could it be a problem with my cable box? The box is a SA 8300hd. Tech support was no help. They said it might be a problem with the tuner or the cable. But if it was the cable, won't I get no sound? I checked my tuner and rest everything, yet I get 5.1 from ps3. Anyone have this problem and if so did you resolve it and how?
I sent a email later yesterday and I got a response, that said they know their is a issue. They had no ETA as to when it will be fixed. OK...yet my rate just went up...they better have a fix fast otherwise hello FIOS.
