    Rocksmith 2014 sound issue

    I have the digital version of Rocksmith 2014 on Xbox 1. I have the following setup - Optical Audio directly to my Yamaha RX-V373 receiver and HDMI directly to my LG tv. I have my Xbox one set up for Optical audio out and Bitstream format to DTS Digital Surround
    and even Dolby Digital . Every time I launch Rocksmith 2014 my Xbox one settings revert back to Stereo Uncompressed from either setting. It only happens with Rocksmith 2014. I know this because I have launched many of my other games both Digital and Physical
    copys and my Xbox 1 sound settings will stay the same. Is there a setting I'm missing in Rocksmith 2014? Is it possibly something with the Xbox 1? Any and all help appreciated.

    Thank You.

    Connecting via HDMI & Optical cable question

    Is it possible to run an optical cable and a hdmi cable from my xbox one to my receiver without causing any conflicts?

    I assume, to use the Optical Cable, I would go into sound preferences, and choose optical connection, which would eliminate the HDMI from doing audio, and only video?



    Basically, with the game Rocksmith 2014, they recommend running HDMI from TV to my Xbox One, and using Optical for audio to my receiver. As this wont work, because I have an apple tv plugged into the receiver, and having my tv plugged into my xbox
    one, opposed to how I currently have it, connected to receiver, won't work.

    Optical out to my Panasonic tv, no sound?

    Rocksmith is a worthy investment if you need some help learning to play guitar.

    I honestly don't find the lag to be so bad, it depends on your audio setup to some extent although both the Xbox One and PS4 versions of the game do tend to suffer lag more so then their older gen version.. I find the official Rocksmith forums to be a good
    source of information.

    This section has some tips for optimising your audio setup.

    Unable to change optical output error code 0x80bd000a

    You need to cold-boot the Xbox One by holding the White Power Button on the front of the console down for five (5) seconds. Wait 10 seconds and restart it. Once it boots back up you can reset the bitstream settings.

    Rocksmith 2014 apparently changes this to uncompressed automatically to prevent latency issues.

    Ideally I would want to be able to set Optical out to uncompressed (optical cable from Xbox One to stereo receiver for rocksmith) and HDMI to Bitstream with Bitstream Format set to Dolby (TV passes thru via optical cable to Stereo receiver so I don't have
    to change audio inputs between Xbox One, OTA Antenna, Roku etc), but keep in mind Dolby Bitstream was not an option when Rocksmith first released iirc

    Downloaded two new songs for rocksmith and they aren't in the song list

    Hi, as you have discovered Rocksmith 2014 songs don't work with Rocksmith, whereas Rocksmith songs do work with Rocksmith 2014. At least you now have an excuse to go out and get Rocksmith 2014 right ?

    Optical out to my Panasonic tv, no sound?

    Yeah I'm an idiot. I was looking online how to solvethe lag in Rocksmith and found info from Ubisoft to use an optical link. No mention that it had to go to a surround sound setup (that I don't have) which suddenly makes that game an expensive proposition.
    Cheers

    Yes the songs will show in Rocksmith 2014, the good news is that for a small charge you can download the songs from Rocksmith as a pack to play in Rocksmith 2014, it was £6.75 here in the UK for that, absolute bargain.
