Bravia Sync - Optical

Hello,

 

It would be great if Bravia Sync had a way of enabling Optical out support, to be able to control a soundbar using 1 remote. It's very annoying having to use two remotes just to control volume.

 

I'm very suprised there is no support for this!

Hi there

 

Bravia Sync will only work via HDMI.  It is not about a lack of support, but more of a technical impossibility.  Bravia Sync is Sonys name for the more generic name of HDMI-CEC.

 

More information is via:

Could I use a Optical to HDMI cable or use that HDMI ARC Adapter linked above?

 

Thanks

Hi there

 

I have absolutely no idea if it would work, as ive not used one before or heard from others that have.  Best thing is to read the reviews of these products.

 

If you do go ahead and purchase one, please post back to share the results of whether it works.

 

Cheers
