    Xbox One Audio and Sony Soundbar


    I have a Sony HTST7 soundbar (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-HTST7-Sound-Wireless-Subwoofer/dp/B00E3AKFA8). It has 7.1 surround sound.

    How do I configure the Xbox One to output the highest quality and compatible audio for my Sony soundbar? I am not sure which works or is better over HDMI, 7.1 uncompressed or DTS.

    Thanks

    :)

    Sony HTST7 Soundbar

    I have a Sony HTST7 soundbar (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-HTST7-Sound-Wireless-Subwoofer/dp/B00E3AKFA8). It has 7.1 surround sound.

    How do I configure the Xbox One to output the highest quality and compatible audio for my Sony soundbar? I am not sure which works or is better over HDMI, 7.1 uncompressed or DTS.

    How do I set XBox One to turn on my soundbar when I use the voice command "Xbox On"? The soundbar is not listed in the AV receiver devices list.

    Amish, considering that your soundbar is designed for 7.1 surround sound you're going to want to connect your Xbox One to it using HDMI and then in your Xbox settings, under display and sound, set the HDMI audio to 7.1 uncompressed. This should get the best
    sound out of your system.

    DTS is going to compress the audio signal before it sends it to the soundbar which will then have to decompress it before it plays it back. This can potentially lead to a loss in audio quality during playback, whereas with the 7.1 uncompressed it doesn't
    have to go through that extra step so it should give you a more accurate playback of the audio.

    If you have any other questions feel free to send me a PM. Have a good one.

    Dolby Atmos random cut outs

    I have too sound/picture cutout problems. I have Sony HT-ZF9 3.1 Dolby Atmos Soundbar. It seems to be only when enabling Atmos on Xbox one S. Super annoying. I have latest Sony zf9 soundbar update. It enabled eartc option but that didnt help for the problem
    either! Microsoft fix this and fast!!! When i not using atmos on xbox one s everything works just fine.. so its xbox one problem not soundbar or tv! I have sony tv also.

    Can I connect Xbox One directly to a sound bar?

    I have a Vizio soundbar connected to my TV. I ran the Audio Receiver Setup on the Xbox One and now the X1 powers on/off the soundbar along with my entire TV/DVR system.

    As for volume control, if you've ran the Audio Receiver Setup then you can control the Soundbar via either voice commands or the Xbox One Smartglass App (the volume controls on Smartglass will no longer control the TV volume, however, as they'll become dedicated
    to the soundbar--I presume the same may be me true for voice commands).
