AC3 french channels (fransat eutelsat 5º W)

Post by sattelight »

The sound in some HD channels on "fransat" (eutelsat 5ºW) is still broken, recorded .ts plays fine on PC. Reading the .ts on PC the audio codec is listed as:" A/52 B (aka E-AC3)"
Is it a similar problem to what was affecting DVB-T sound in France (v7 combo) that seems to be solved? viewtopic.php?f=32&t=86

In case a .ts is of help one recorded from France 2 (10MB) :

I have V7 HD with latest firmware 2016.08.03 (06.06 before, same problem)

Thanks for your help.

I find that AC3 / DD and EAC3 / DD+ do not work unless the volume is decreased 4 notches from maximum, then it works ok. The volume control should not affect bitstream audio formats so it seems there is a bug, still there in the 31/8/16 update.

With the volume set to maximum, AC3 plays as undecoded pulsing noise, EAC3 is silent.

sw version: 2.24.91.338 (31/8/16)
audio out: BS Out

I want the AC3 / EAC3 to go to the amp undecoded and have the amp decode it so do not want LPCM out.

Hello,

Change the audio out to LPCM, not BS

How do you cable Audio to your Ampli..??... HDMI, RCA,...??

The box is connected to a 7.1 channel amp by HDMI. The setting must be BS not LPCM so that the amp can decode the 5.1 AC3 / E-AC3 audio as multichannel output, otherwise the box downmixes it to stereo PCM. If the box volume is set to higher than 4 notches below the maximum the AC3 / E-AC3 no longer decodes, otherwise it is ok.

Hello,

I believe that the problem of these General BOX with its French system of our TV TNT HD EAC3 and requires decoding "Dolby Digital Plus " which is a paid license ... and he does not want to purchase the license .. .

Yet I have the " Golden V8 " and after update in June , it works well ... There is still mystery in there.

I understand - so the box cannot decode E-AC3 internally for LPCM output because of the license issue, but can send it directly as BS Out because that needs no license - no decoding in the box. And my amp is able to decode E-AC3 as it has a license so it all works for me.

It seems the "4 notches from max volume" problem I have reported is a different one to the one in this thread and only affects BS Out.

E-AC3 / DD+ still not working properly on Fransat.
Having a sound amplifier or LCD with E-AC3 and setting BSout in AV settings is a workaround though.
