Bronze Member Username: Tdti1Post Number: 94 Registered: Mar-05 | Many channels are ac3 audio, your receiver will have to have ac3 audio pass, if so hook it up to a amp with digital audio and all should be fine, if you have a dvb HD receiver it should decode the ac3 on it's own. Oh and if you find good channels open and not listed on lyngsat please keep them to yourself, as public posting gets channels encrypted. |

Gold Member Username: PlymouthCanada Post Number: 7441 Registered: Jan-08 | Teddy Thanks i will try on my surround. Yes you are right many channels come encrypted, good point. |

Silver Member Username: BernardmiPost Number: 334 Registered: Dec-07 | You would need an external Sound Blaster Audigy AC3 converter Plymouth. I used to listen to V-me myself on AMC3 to learn Spanish. You do not need the PC card nor the remote control unit. Just the box hooked to SPDIF output of your Viewsat and to your sound system. I bought mine on eBay for peanuts. http://jp.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=1&subcategory=204&product=4 925&nav=artwork |

Silver Member Username: BernardmiPost Number: 335 Registered: Dec-07 | Wow !!!! I bought mine for peanuts but not anymore.... I just glanced at eBay and they all ask for $150 for the unit !!!!

Gold Member Username: TapemanNew York Citay in-HD, NY Post Number: 3992 Registered: Oct-06 | "Many channels are ac3 audio, your receiver will have to have ac3 audio pass" MPEG-2 receivers can decode AIF or AC3 all ISO standards AIF is uncompressed audio AC3 is digital dolby compressed Surround sound that's different That's an encoded signal within AC3 L&R plus up to 4 subs plymouth Don't go crazy No need for special audio out No SPIDF no optical Yor basic L/R port is all yo need Like I told yo some bins cause audio problems Try a real virgin FTA receiver Yor receiver lost its virginity somehow  |

Gold Member Username: PlymouthCanada Post Number: 7450 Registered: Jan-08 | King After a check with Viewsat the Vs Ultra can't provide AC3 audio on RCA output but on S/PDIF output. I have a eye on a new Home theater with this input on it. Yes my receiver lose his CHERRY Are you able to get it on your Xtreme. |
|
Gold Member Username: TapemanNew York Citay in-HD, NY Post Number: 3993 Registered: Oct-06 | I get AC3 on Xtreme and on Visionsat Most channels operate on AC3 for less bandwidth Infact very few channels do AIF audio "After a check with Viewsat the Vs Ultra can't provide AC3 audio on RCA output but on S/PDIF output. " Not true MPEG-2 has the option to pair with AC3 or AIF format |

Gold Member Username: PlymouthCanada Post Number: 7460 Registered: Jan-08 | King I have never get any channels in AC3 with my viewsat Ultra, i just check with viewsat today and the guy says that the Ultra doesn't have the decoder for it and I need to use the S/PDIF output for it. If anybody can get it with Ultra please reply here. |

New member Username: RiconissanPost Number: 7 Registered: Feb-09 | It is possible that the person that you contacted at VS gave you bad information. Also, are you sure it is broadcast in AC3? |
|
Gold Member Username: PlymouthCanada Post Number: 7464 Registered: Jan-08 | Rico Few Free to Air satellites Provide both choice with AC3 and standard, since i have this receiver, I have never get sound on channels with AC3. But I will just buy a new Home Theater with the S/PDIF and give a try and come back with the result. |
|
New member Username: RiconissanPost Number: 10 Registered: Feb-09 | Sounds good (pun) lol. I was just trying to eliminate any issues with the BIN. Sorry I am fixed @ 110, 119 With Prv7000 so I could not verify the signals you are receiving. |
