Hi. Please help my desperate situation. Sorry for my seriously lacking explanation skill with proper technical terms. My 5.1 speaker + old Pioneer receiver (VSX-D511) + DVD player and latest LG oled TV used to work perfectly until a few days ago.
DVDs and mkv, etc. videos (both directly from files on USB/external HDD connected on TV and from files playing on laptop->HDMI->TV) with DTS track on (5.1, 7.1, DTS-HD, etc.) used to properly make the receiver's "DTS" indicator turned on with all the front, center, rear sound.
Now: 1. DTS indicator is still on but the sound comes "only from the front speakers". Receiver mode is "direct" as before, hence the indicator. TV's sound setting is the same (AUTO - pass through - instead of PCM). Laptop's video players' settings have "S/PDIF" on. Same problem plaing DVD with DTS track.
2. But when I put the "5.1 channel speaker" mode on my receiver which just splits any analogue, stereo, LPCM, etc. 2 channel sound, I do get sound from all my speakers. So speakers are not broken but that sound is not direct digital 5.1.
What should I check? A few days ago, a cable person came to fix my new TV's not sharp screen that has to do with cable and setup box. This setup box is above the receiver. I don't know if that has anything to do with it but otherwise I never touched anything.
Big thank you I advance!
