Hi Sieghard, I am not the best person to answer that question. I found about this arc by googling HDMI pass-through, because somebody had said, actually I think more than one somebody, that having HDMI pass-through would probably solve my problem. Having never heard of HDM I passed through, I'm having no idea that a sound bar might have an HDMI input, I learned some stuff. But precisely how it all works, I still don't understand. It has to do with the audio somehow getting back to the TV. And it has to do with making sure the full surround signal gets out to the sound bar. But like I say, I really don't pretend to understand it exactly. I do know that the old receiver we had did not have this HDMI return, so we do have common links between the problem now and the problem with the older TV. That is to say, no HDMI return in either case, and relying on optical output in both cases. Different speaker set ups completely as you might imagine, since the older set had surround, and this is just a sound bar with the TV. So, it is just a guess, but it seems to fit my circumstances. Sorry for the lousy answer. Mary
