    Xbox one X 7.1 surround doesnt work when set to Unprocessed 7.1 but does on Unprocessed 5.1...


    I have an Xbox one X hooked up via hdmi to my Sony str dh770 AVR.

    The avr is then hooked up via hdmi to my samsung.

    I have left center right and 4 surround sound speakers and a sub. When I set the xbox settings to 7.1 unprocessed and then set the sound field to PLIIx on the avr I still only get 5.1 and 2 silent surrounds.

    If I change that setting to 5.1 unprocessed on the xbox settings then I get sound from all 7 speakers when using PLIIx

    What is the deal

    :)

    Xbox 360 Backwards Compatible games not outputting 7.1 audio from HDMI

    Hey there,

    The Xbox 360 console doesn't support 7.1 surround, only 5.1 Dolby Digital and DTS. Due to this, it is normal that backward compatible games are outputting 5.1 surround. On your Xbox 360 setup, it sounds you have it set up with Pro Logic IIx to simulate 7.1
    surround sound, but the Xbox 360 console doesn't support true 7.1 surround sound.

    Hope this helps clear it up.

    No talking in workouts ?

    Haha! Wonder why it was set to that anyway, weird. But just for future reference, 5.1 and 7.1 is how many speakers you may have in a surround sound set up. 5.1 is 5 speakers and one sub and of course 7.1 is 7 speakers and 1 sub.

    5.1 surround question

    Not going to work. The Xbox One currently has zero support for Dolby Digital 5.1/7.1. It only supports Stereo, Uncompressed 5.1/7.1 (which isn't Dolby Digital), and DTS Digital Surround over HDMI. Your headset doesn't accept DTS and optical cannot support
    uncompressed 5.1/7.1 (not enough bandwidth).

    It's best to wait for Dolby Digital support to be added. It's coming.

    Seriously MS please fix the surround sound issue on the Xbox One...very disappointed :(

    5.1 gives you 2 front, 2 rear, 1 center, and sub. sides where introduced with 7.1

    If i understand correctly, 5.1 surround is working correctly on your 7.1

    Xbox Dolby Digital support

    Unbelievably, the xbox one currently does not support Dolby digital 5.1 or 7.1. There is a Beta setting for surround sound in settings but that doesn't work for me. I get no audio from my center channel. An update is supposedly coming. Thoroughly disappointed.
