    Hi I am a newbie on this forum. I have a FOXT2 box which I used at my caravan on a Panasonic TV. Whilst at the van I had the box connected via a digital optical lead to a soundbar. I now have it at home connected to a Sony TV but cannot get any audio with the box connected with a HDMI lead but if I connect to the sounbar again I do get audio.I have reset the box and tried another lead but no difference. I have tried the audio setting on the remote but that doesn t do anything and does not give any option to change the audio settings

    Can I clarify please; do have an HD FOX-T2 (which uses an external drive to record) or and HDR-FOX T2. Is it HD or SD content you are trying to play?

    Thanks; you have posted in the wrong section of the Forum. Can I repeat my question above “Is it HD or SD content you are trying to play?” (they use different audio encoding). Have you looked in Settings> Preferences> Audio and tried changing the settings?

    Admin edit: moved to correct area.

    It is watching anything, live TV, Recorded content radio. The issue is if i connect the box to the TV with HDMI or Aerial lead there is no audio despite seeing the volume go up and down using the remote. If I connect the box direct to the soundbar via the optical lead I do get volume but only through the soundbar and not the TV. Does this explain my problem clearer

    The only 2 options in settings are sterio or dolby digital. The manual also states to press the audio button to choose preference but it does not change, if i press the audio button more than once a message pops up saying press the pvr button to operste the receiver

    So have you tried the stereo option?

    Change the TV setting to use the TV speakers.

    Recheck your connections.

    Humax > TV via hdmi only. Do not use hdmi and the optical cable at the same time between Humax and TV.

    TV > soundbar via optical.

    There is no reason why this configuration shouldn’t work.

    Thats exactly what I do. The optical to soundbar cures the lip-sync problems I used to get.
