Hello to all.
I have a Samsung Q95 tv and recently just bought a Q950T samsung soundbar and constantly have issues with eARC.
I have connected them through HDMI 3 port of one connect box using the HDMI cable that came along with the soundbar.
However, I keep seeing TV ARC on the display of the soundbar instead of eARC.
I have made tons of attempts :
Sometimes by some of the above combinations I get it to work and show eARC but after I close the TV and open it on again the next morning we are back at square one (TV ARC shown instead of eARC)
I also have to say that even when I have eARC on, even if it is not working since TV ARC is shown on soundbar, I have sound (instead of other reports I saw around here about not having sound when you have eARC on).
Does anyone has any clue what I can try and solve this thing?
I have seen other reports here that other users have similar issues but most of them I think report that they have different brands of TV and soundbar (mostly SONOS i think).
It is really frustrating not getting a TV and soundbar of the same company to work!
Thanks!
