Hey Steve so glad I found you, just created a KZbin channel and getting back into gaming. I really need help with my set up 1) I have an Xbox series X 2) Lg ultragear gp850 quad nano IPs 27inch gaming monitor 3) Lg ultragear gaming speaker I just need sound ☹️ now. Please can you advise on how I would go about setting up to get sound from the gaming speaker. Would I need this extractor in this video 1) would I attach the hdmi cable provided with the Xbox x from the hdmi port into the hdmi in of the extractor and then another hdmi cable from the out to the monitor ? 2) can you provide an example of an audio cable that I would need to go into the lg ultragear gaming speaker.

Does this work for soundbars?

[@anderspaulsson]

I have a PS5 and Logitech G560 (2.1, 2 speakers and a bass) it got a 3.5mm input, and it can also use Usb and bluetooth, i use a 4k 120/240hz monitor and i want to use the ps5 sound in the 2.1 system, i have tried the usb in the ps5 and 3.5mm from the ps5 controller to the 2.1 system but the ps5 keeps registering it as headphones so i only get the ps5 sound in the 2 speakers but no bass. Can this product fix this so i get the ps5 sound in both speakers AND the Bass?

Thank you for the video. I’m kind of a novice when it comes to this particular stuff. I have a Sonos Arc and wanted to try to get At is so I purchased one of these Avstars. I have in from Amazon TV Box and out to Arc and projector. It works fine but I can’t confirm if it’s Atmos as Amazon Box settings says Atmos not available. It does sound great though. Arc is plugged into the Earc Out so not sure what’s going on. Any insight would helpful.

[@alexanderdietrich8038]

If you use the Toslink (optical cable) to send audio to a home theater system, does the extractor send 5.1 audio? I used other extractors and can only extract stereo (2.0) audio.

Does anyone have this issue I am having, so on my PS5, when I set the extractor on 5.1ch my surround sound works but it will be missing some features like 1440 support, and when I switch to copy mode all the display will be there but my surround sound won't have the 5.1ch, I tried everything that I can to test the settings but still no surround sound with "copy" but with "5.1" it will have surround sound but no video options

I got a question will this make my 7.1.4 Samsung soundbar which only support 4K60HZ, will it make it support 4K120HZ with VRR? I have a PS5 and I have it directly connected to my soundbar because it actually sounds better than using eARC passthrough I want to get all the benefits the PS5 has but the limit of my soundbar is 4K60HZ do you anything that could do that or this would do it

I have had issues with my switcher I just bought the one that you have it works with Xbox series x but not PS5 so far I'm trying to fix it right now as we speak

[@js100serch]

So, if I understood correctly, this audio extractor won't send any audio to my Home Theater?. My Home Theater only supports DTS and Dolby Digital through Optical or Analog. For example the nintendo switch won't send 5.1 channel audio to my home theater, through the Optical output of my TV. Apparently the Switch only sends Uncompressed audio. Is this the same case for PS5?.

[@joebiscit]

My HDMI extractor only produces sound. I did the whole less than 9.8 ft of cable thing. Same one in the video. Why is there no video? It's not a 4k monitor, does that have anything to do with it?

i have a question sir, I want to take the image and sound from Playstation 5 via HDMI and connect it to this device, then I want to transfer only the image to the TV with an HDMI and connect the sound to the Harman Kardon AVR 360 cinema amplifier via HDMI.

On my ps 5 , only Copy work , the others ( 7.1 , 5.1 ,2.1 ) don't show image on my monitor . Why ?

[@patrikmedia]

So in theory I could use this paired with my Xbox SX (running a 4k120hz monitor) and get the audio extracted to my DAC/AMP via Optical, right? I only need 2ch in that case, so it would actually be uncompressed as well? I do need to have VRR enabled using the "Copy" mode. So there should be no downside to it at all or am I missing something?

[@ShazeemKhan]

Greetings from Trinidad, Steve. I must say I'm delighted to have found your chabbel. I subscribed not long after. Love your explanations & quality of videos. Silly question: I noticed you mentioned that 5.1 & 7.1 audio will be compressed via TOSLINK / Optical cable, would that apply to setero mode also? Not much into the HT scene. Thanks in advance

[@TechSteve]

Does optical cable support lossless audio? Like coaxial, one of the issues with optical is that it doesn't have enough bandwidth for the lossless audio formats such as Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio soundtracks found on most Blu-rays and 4K Blu-rays. An optical connection also can't support more than two channels of uncompressed PCM audio.

I have a Samsung Neo Qled. In your professional opinion. If the audio extractor is set to 7.1. Do you think using Earc out to the extractor would allow me to turn on Dolby Atmos? Just wondering if there's a built-in Dolby Atmos codec on the extractor or if it's mainly passthrough. Thank you.

how you can update ? you need some aplication ?

[@robertp.haynes3730]

Great review, I’ve been waiting for a HDMI extractor to use with my Samsung sound bar. My question is, if you’re using RCA speakers, why not use a RCA To 3.5 mm cable to connect to your tv’s headphone Jack and plug that right into the speakers, and then plug the console directly into the hdmi 2.1 port. Would that set up not work ?

[@yoyoli459]

probably those audio cables don't support such newest 2.1 version and high resolution.

[@BeFreeBeHappyJC]

Hi I have a Samsung LS28AG700NUXXU 4k 120hz monitor no speakers within. I have currently connected a Sony soundbar HT-RT3 is capable of 5.1 sound through HDMI arc however my monitor doesn’t have an arc port. So I am using the analogue jack 3.5mm as my monitor doesn’t have optical port. My PS5 is connected to the hdmi 2.1 port and my laptop is connected to the other hdmi port. No other ports available apart from display port for pc. My understanding of an HDMI audio extractor is if I use the 3.5mm jack it will only return stereo 2.1 sound to my soundbar. How can I achieve 5.1 sound with my connected devices to monitor? Will an hdmi audio extractor work? Or should I be looking at something else? My understanding

[@Pr0ject2]

How badly is the sound compressed? I've found the ps5 sound with my arctis pro wireless is dreadful through usb and the hdmi 2.0 extractor I have with optical doesn't sound that great either. Just can't get the headset sounding as good as it did did with the ps4! Would really appreciate a reply as I've been tirelessly looking for a fix ever since I got a ps5!

so i wonder if you could anwser my question; i see in your video settings that the color format isnt RGB but YUV422. with my tv right now i have RGB and only the 120hz has YUV420. Do you think my tv connected with this audio axtractor will still show rgb color format in the video settings of the ps5? hope you see my question.

[@justsaying993]

Hey Adam! So the reason for this is because the PS5 output is limited to 40Gbps and not 48Gbps like on the Xbox Series X. Since it’s a limitation of the PS5 itself, it can’t be fixed by external hardware/software. Hope this helps! (I own both consoles)

My question to you is can I still use this audio extractor if I’m using it on a 5.1 home theater surround sound system on a PS5 on a 120hz TV? Will my audio be lesser quality?

[@Foranzer486]

Did you test this in the playstation party chat? My buddies bought the device since they wanted an upgrade from the astro HDMI extractor since we all use the astro a40 tr headsets, the biggest turn off on it was that now they are cracking when they kinda get loud. We have connected the mix amps for the astros and turned the mic volume almost all the way down in the settings and on the ps5 they turned down their mic setting to almost mute and they are still crackling. Do you have a fix for this or should they just send them back and get new ones or go with another product? We have exhausted all of the resources (including asking the amazon seller) that we could find so I figured asking you if you had found this error or if anyone else had a fix for this. Thank you very much for the videos and hopefully I hear something back.

Steve great video! I'm just wondering if I need to purchase this 2.1 extractor. My question is with the 2.1 extractor can you get the audio to go through the 3.5 mm jack and the optical port at the same time on the extractor? I'm trying to hookup a butt kicker to my sim rig using a ps5. Also, I'm using the Sony Inzone H7 wireless headphones. The wireless dongle takes all the audio (I've heard?) so I'm trying to split the audio up simultaneously. Wireless headphones with chat and have the butt kicker working. I know I'm asking to a lot. Thanks for the help. If anyone else has any ideas I would appreciate it. Thank you

[@TheQuickyouknow]

I'm not sure if I fully follow your question, but you can't output to 2 sources at the same time with the adapter. There's a button to switch outputs, but it stops outputting to the other formats. So if you're output 5.1 via optical, you're not getting hdmi or 3.5mm sound.

[@jonasamenta7186]

@@TheQuickyouknow Ok. Thank you for your answer. Very much appreciated. I'm just trying to have the game sound through the Sony H7 headphones and have the butt kicker working at the same time. I figured I was asking a lot, and the extractor would only put the sound to one device at a time. Thanks again.

[@TheQuickyouknow]

@@jonasamenta7186 I see. You may be able to pull that off if you run it in copy mode, but that's not really what it's made for. If you run in copy mode, one of your sound profiles will be reduced quality. You'll either have the right settings to your headset (let's say 5.1 surround), but you the audio to the audio jack will be 5.1 downgraded to 2.0 (which isn't as good as uncompressed 2.0 sound). Have you looked into an audio splitter instead? This is mainly for people who play in 4k and need digital optical out. Also, might be worth double checking the outputs your TV has.

@@TheQuickyouknow I'll have to try all those ideas. I'm re-modeling my side room in my house and need to hook things up. I just bought a 4k monitor( not open), PS5 {not open) and other things. I'm just putting everything together in my head before actually putting things together because of the re-modeling. I'll try all your ideas and see if I can get everything to work. Thank you very much for all your replies, and ideas!

Super thrilled to see a review on this! Thanks Hanks you! I have a few questions if you could help me out with some insight.. Does this require the use of a monitor/tv with hdmi 2.1? Are you able to still obtain normal function of game chat/ party chat with this? I’d love to be able to make full (or at least more than I currently achieve) use of my set up. Currently, I’m using a xbox series x with a 1080p monitor (kd25f) for the smooth 120 fps but I enjoy having freesync enabled for some games. My audio currently routes through an Astro mixamp to a digital to analog converter to another dac and finally to my headphone amp to drive my hifiman sundaras. I’d like to be able to cut out the mixamp and first converter having audio come from the extractor to my dac then amp and headphones without sacrificing game chat or freesync. Any thoughts?

if your TV support HDMI2.1and your input signal source support hdmi2.1, then you can enjoy the highest 8k resolution pictures.

Im looking for an HDMI audio extractor so I can have the sound going to my surround sound system and to a 3.5mm jack at the same time. The reason for this is I need the 3.5mm output for a Next Level Racing HF8 but still want the sound to come out of my surround sound system when using my PS5. Will this unit achieve this?

It'f you have a 60Hz TV watch this kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqOtiIt4otmKd8k

I have an old 5.1 harmon kardon surround sound, and a newer Samsung TV. Both have the optical hookup, but the TV doesn't have a spot for coaxial cable just hdmi USB. The TV also has the audio output not sure if I can use coaxial cable? What converter what i need? Thank you

[@meat_loves_wasabi]

U can use hdmi cable from the avstar box to your Samsung Tv and use optical cable from the avstar box to your 5.1 Harmon Kardon If you using PS5 just note I having some issues with it … XSX works fine

hi steve, hi people looking for a solution to my problem: -extract sound from nvidia shield send it to a soundbar -extract image to send it to projector all this using eARC and HDMI 2.1 cables does your solution work you think?

[@MikeBravos]

Hello Steve, I think I need some help here cause I am not sure how to do it. I got an Odyssey G5 monitor with one HDMI input, I want to connect my MacBook and my PS5 but I also want to extract the audio from the PS5 and send it over my audio interface (either analog or digital connection). I am thinking, I will run the hdmi cable from my PS5 to an hdmi audio extractor and then the hdmi output from the extractor to an hdmi switcher, which also the MacBook will be connected to it, and then the hdmi switcher out to the monitor? Is this doable or it will downgrade the picture quality or whatever? Thank you in advance! 🙏

I have an HDMI adapter playlist I would look through that

[@earlyculyer4103]

Old man Early here, could you please tell me if this would work with my 4K HDMI television that does not have 3.5 mm output jack. I would like to use a 5.1 Klipsch computer speaker system or entertainment whatever but I think it only has 3.5 mm output could be wrong I have to check but I'm pretty sure that's why I stored it besides the repairs that it needs. Thank you in advance for any information regarding my situation.

[@TechSteve]

Normally those speakers requires a audio card,i would expect to get 2 channels

Do you have anymore detail on how to set this up with PS5 settings? I have it hooked up the same way with a BENQEX3203R gaming monitor. When I fire up the PS5 and do not launch a game it shows 3840 x 2160 - 60hz, HDCP 2.3. When firing up COD:Warzone on the PS5, it shows 2560 x 1440 - 120Hz and the HDCP drops to 1.4. Also in the supported HDR frequencies it only shows up to 60Hz (YUV422/YUV420). Am I setting this up incorrectly, or is this how it should be working? I thought HDCP would stay at 2.x and HDR frequencies would display up to 120 Hz as it does in your video?

Sorry I don’t

Hi Steve, i’m using Acer predator which is 4k 120 hz. I’m just wondering, is this product gonna give me the 4k 120 and will it fix my hdr? In my case, hdr is supported, but it’s too dark. Thanks in advance

[@TechSteve]

Dark HDR mean the display has low nits there’s not a fix, accept for turning HDR off or buying a new monitor
