If your television doesn't support eARC, and you have an external device providing a Dolby Atmos AV signal, then couldn't you run that signal into your AVR via a HDMI cable, and allow it to act like a splitter by taking the audio portion of the signal, processing it, and then outputting the Dolby Atmos signal to the speakers, while allowing the video portion of the signal to pass on through and out to the television??? Also, I thought ARC could allow one to receive Dolby Atmos audio from streaming services that use the format, which includes Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, because those services embed Dolby Atmos in a Dolby Digital Plus stream, which ARC can handle.

In my case, all devices plug into my receiver and then video out to the TV (no eARC needed) except for my PS5. That goes direct to the TV to utilize HDMI 2.1 features like VRR.

eARC has been a lifesaver. Only one remote needed like he said and with CEC enabled you control volume and power off/on. I've been swapping out remotes every few years when adding things like a Roku or new game console. Universal remotes used to be a must but not anymore. A good modern smart TV with eARC combined with a modern soundbar or Home Theater AVR eARC and all is fine. The only problem that still remains is getting certain codecs like Atmos, DTS or DTS-HD to pass from the TV to the sound device. I read that many TV manufactures now like LG no longer do DTS or DTS-HD and just pass the signal as PCM 5.1. Still sounds good but very confusing.

eARC is part of HDMI 2.1 standard, and HDMI 2.1 supports 4K@120hz (and also 8K@60hz). So if your TV and sound bar supports eARC and have ports marked "eARC" *you know* it supports 4K@120hz just fine. The only thing you have to make sure is to have a proper HDMI 2.1 cable plugged in your TV (eARC audio can run fine on just an HDMI 1.4 cable).

ARC has one downside: its audio is limited to 5.1. So if your gear is not the new and more capable eARC, you kinda have to choose between great audio from your smart TV vs the great control functionality of CEC. Of course, if all your program sources are external to the TV this is not an issue…. but given the awesome capabilities of the new smart TVs, were I configuring a new system today I’d ensure that both the TV and the AVR were eARC.

Very happy and thankful for your clear information, Chris. I bought a 2022 55" Samsung crystal Clear UHD TV in a sale. Later I discovered that the TV didn't support Dolby Atmos. I was already dissapointed and searching for a solution. Good to hear that you can place the soundbar before the TV: meaning that your Streaming service-signal first goes through the Soundbar and then to your TV instead of the other way around. So you don't lose the Dolby Atmos signal which the soundbar supports but the TV doesn't. This probably works because of the eARC-HDMI-ports on both Soundbar and TV. Soundbar only has to put through the visual to the TV and the Surround sound signal is already in the soundbar. Sounds plausible 😎 I only have to buy a good soundbar (with eARC and Dolby Atmos) now. Plus a few Ultra High speed cables for my other devices. Minding that I need a soundbar with a few extra HDMI-ports. Thanks!!!

Meanwhile the sony bdv e2100 almost a soundbar with separated 5.1speaker lost sound in sorround speaker dolby digtal plus and atmos, inspite to be HDMI ARC build in, also it is not wide dinamic audio range capable, the sound is flat via PCM. So I disided to stay with the pioneer vsx rs320 becausa even has better effects movies sound than the sony bdv-e2100, I thinks the optical audio is capable in audio only needs good hardware to reproduce sounds, I still didn´t test earc so far.

Hi Chris, amazing video. I wanted to share that while your approach for the Xbox series X and soundbar is correct for the HDMI connections there are some soundbars/TVs that are not compatible together and will cause a sound delay on the Xbox when trying to use Dolby Atmos. I experienced this when I bought a Samsung soundbar for my LG cx and Xbox series x. My tv would not let me use the audio Passthrough setting with the Samsung. I then returned the Samsung and bought an LG soundbar and now I can use the Passthrough setting and Dolby Atmos has no delay on my Xbox series x.

I stumbled across your video. Thanks for posting. I have encountered issues with ARC in regard to Blu-Ray players (Sony UB-P 700 & 800). Most recently the issue occurred when setting up a new Samsung Q80 75" tv, which was replacing an LG 75", on which I managed to crack the screen, and also had the same issue. The Blu-Ray player is not seen whether it is plugged into the TV or my HT Receiver (Yamaha). With the ARC used to return the sound and the Blu-Plugged into another TV input the result is better than when plugged into the receiver. The receiver will only give a buffering icon and the TV will give a couple of seconds of picture along with the buffering. The only solution I have found that works is to: - Disconnect the TV from the internet (I use wired). My son thinks part of the issue may be copy protection. Turn off the ARC. Connect to a non-ARC input I had to do this with the LG as well, I was hoping the Samsung would be different. It is a bit more inconvenient but it works. It also doesn't help that my Harmony Remote is now a brick. It became useless with the last attempt to update the hardware. Do you have any thoughts?

Thank you so much! I was pulling my hair out trying to get my new tv to broadcast through my surround sound system and had the HDMI cord plugged into the right spot but nothing would happen. I watched this and I simply turned everything off and turned my power bar off waited 10 seconds and turned the power bar on and turned everything back on and boom! tv detected receiver and next thing I know sound was coming out of the surround sound system! You can't believe how happy I am that I saw this video! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Great video Chris. Just bought a tv with eArc and a sound bar, but still waiting for it to arrive. Your video had good information so I won’t have to fumble around with the settings when I get it. Thanks.

I learned how to use ARC when I found out the Nintendo Switch couldn't use surround sound with an optical cable. With my setup ARC was the only way to get it to accept a 5.1 signal. Great video!

For the last 3 months I’ve had my soundbar connected by Bluetooth because I was using the wrong HDMI port - it’s the arc/out not the arc/in?! Seemed counter intuitive but it fixed it. Thank you!

I gotta be honest, this video popped up in the related videos and u wasn't going to watch it because I've watched a few videos in arc and earc and thought it was pretty straight forward. But decided to watch yours anyway. And I learned more. And even had a question answered I wasn't looking for in this video yet you answered. Which was about still getting 4k @ 120hz on the ps5 but using the receiver with arc to the tv's earc/arc input. Awesome vid man for real! Thanks for the info and God bless!
