tried ARC today.
kinda weird:
- tested youtube 5.1 surround test - didn't trigger surround
- tested a movie file via usb
- when opened with the native player on google tv, it showed DD+ (which is good enough for me) but sound isn't the right sound (just buzz)
- when opened with VLC, sound is correct, but i think it is just stereo.
My main use case is play downloaded 4k movies in 5.1. w/ my old TV, I just hdmi out my laptop to my receiver and call it a day. it plays 1080p with surround sound.
How can I enable the same with this new 4k TV? (my receiver isn't 4k unfortunately).
