Hi I have been using our WD TV Live for a year or so and it has only ever output a stereo signal via optical out to our receiver (which auto decodes and shows the signal received). I have checked the audio settings and it is set of dolby digital pass thru. I checked several files and the on screen box shows MPEG or AAC. To be honest I don’t know if the files we are playing actually have a dolby digital signal encoded on them. We were given the files by a friend who downloaded them. How can I check whether the files have a dolby digital signal soundtrack and if there is one get the WD player to output it Thanks in advance Solar Paul
The WD cannot decode multi-channel AAC so it will always be stereo only. There are tools that can convert the audio to a multi-channel format compatible with the WD if you wanted to go that route.
