No 5.1 Surround Sound from Apple TV? Solved!

If you have the headache problem "No 5.1 Surround Sound from Apple TV 2", read this tutorial to solve it and learn how to set and play HD 1080p videos with Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sounds in Apple TV 2.

Some Apple TV 2 users are having the audio issue while playing HD videos in Apple TV 2 with Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sounds as below:

How do you get 5.1 audio from Apple TV 2?

Hey all, I've got an aTV2, and managed to in on that sweet fire sale on movies from iTunes.

So I pop on one of the movies and I'm wondering why I'm only getting 2.1. This happens on HBO Go too when I'm trying to catch up on True Blood. Is this normal? I figured that if digital copies redeemed from blu rays were 2.1 than iTunes movies purchased directly from Apple would be in 5.1. Is this not the case?

Is there any way to play 5.1 surround sound via Apple TV 2? Here is the requirment and Instructions for your to set up Apple TV 2 for streaming videos with 5.1 Surround Sound.

The Apple TV 2 will support audio encoded mainly as MP3, AAC, Apple Lossless and 5.1 surround sound with AC3. The audio can only be two audio tracks: AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) Stereo and AC3 (Dolby Digital for surround) .

Requirements

Don't get too excited on how to sync your Dobly Dgital 5.1 movies with ATV 2 just yet. Before anything else, you're requried to make something ready in advance:

- Apple TV 2 for 1080p/720p Video Streaming;
- Windows or Mac computer with iTunes 10.6 or later;
- 720p/1080p HDTV;
- Home theater system (an A/V receiver capable of Dolby Digital playback plus surround sound speakers);
- An HDMI cable to connect Apple TV to your HDTV;
- An optical digital audio cable to connect Apple TV to audio receiver;
- Internet connection;
- Your Apple ID and password

Instructions

Apple TV is not able to decode 5.1 surround sound to stereo by itself, if you want to play AC3 5.1 (Dolby Digital surround) audio you will need an AV receiver. Applet TV (including 2nd-gen and 3nd-gen) does not decode the surround audio itself, it will pass through the audio to AV receiver for decoding. If you do not have the AV receiver and connect Apple TV directly to your HD TV with HDMI, then there will be only video without sound while playing surround sound movie. But Apple TV itself just works ok with movie of stereo sound.

Set up Apple TV for streaming HD videos with Dolby Digital 5.1 sounds

Connect Apple TV 2 to HDTV and audio receiver

Unbox Apple TV and follow the below steps to get started with Apple TV 2.
1. Connect Apple TV to a power outlet.
2. Connect Apple TV to HDTV with an HDMI cable.
3. Connect Apple TV to audio receiver with an optical digital audio cable. Turn on audio receiver, and use Direct Mode for Dolby Digital 5.1 audio reproduction.
4. When Apple TV boots up, it will scan for available WiFi networks to connect to. Use the remote control find yours and choose it, then enter your password. The Apple TV can also connect via Ethernet. Apple explains how to connect the black Apple TV models to network in the Apple TV User's Guide, specifically from pages 16.

Note: There is no HDMI cable or optical cable included in the Apple TV box, so you'll need to purchase an HDMI cable and an optical digital audio cable.

Setup for Apple TV 2 to play/stream movies from your computer

At this point, you should be ready to stream the hottest HD movies and TV shows from iTunes Store and Netflix with the black Apple TV.

If you're more into streaming music or videos from computer to Apple TV, you can enable home sharing feature. Home Sharing allows you to stream content from your iTunes library to the Apple TV to be displayed on your HDTV. To use home sharing, you need to have iTunes installed on your computer and set up on your main home computer and on Apple TV. Note that Apple TV 2 works with iTunes 10.2 later and Apple TV 2 iTunes 10.6 and later on versions.

Download iTunes latest version from Apple.

To set up Home Sharing in iTunes:

1. Open iTunes on your computer.

2. Choose Advanced > Turn On Home Sharing.

3. Enter your Apple ID and password that you use for the iTunes Store, and then click Create Home Share.

To set up Home Sharing on Apple TV 2:

1. On Apple TV, choose Settings > Computers.

2. Choose Turn On Home Sharing, and then enter the same Apple ID and password you entered on your computer.

Once Home Sharing has been turned on, Apple TV will automatically find iTunes libraries on your home network that have Home Sharing turned on using the account name you entered.

Setup for Apple TV to pass-through Dolby Digital 5.1 to audio receiver

Now that your Apple TV is connected to a Dolby Digital-capable sound system, you can let Apple TV pass through Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound audio to the receiver.

To set up Dolby Digital out on Apple TV:
1. On Apple TV, choose Settings > Audio & Video.

2. Choose Dolby Digital, and change the settings to On.

Play/Stream HD video from iTunes library to Apple TV 2 with Dolby Digital 5.1 sound
Now you can back to menu and play movies from computer. Choose Computer>Movies and stream up to 720p HD movies to Apple TV 2. Apple TV will passes data out to your A/V receiver for decoding when/if the HD video contains Dolby Digital sound.

What if:

1. My Apple TV 2 will not deliver Dolby Digital 5.1 audio?

ATV 2 with firmware 4.2.2 many not handle DD 5.1 properly. Update your firmware to the latest version.

2. I set Dolby Digital to Auto…
When Dolby Digital is set to auto, the Apple TV will play AAC stereo when the source video contains both Dolby Digital 5.1 and AAC stereo audio.

3. I'd like to stream videos with DTS surround?

Apple TV 2 would handle DTS audio. A workaround here is to convert DTS to ATV supported audio formats: HE-AAC (V1), AAC (16 to 320 Kbps), protected AAC (from iTunes Store), MP3 (16 to 320 Kbps), MP3 VBR, Audible (formats 2, 3, and 4), Apple Lossless, AIFF, and WAV; Dolby Digital 5.1 surround sound.

4. My MKV/AVI/WMV video won't load in iTunes library?

You can’t stream MKV to Apple TV unless they are encoded into Apple TV supported formats (MP4, M4V, MOV). But luckily Pavtube iMedia Converter for Mac has Apple TV 2 oriented presets that can keep Dolby Digital 5.1 as well as AAC stereo audio when converting MKV/AVI/WMV/VOB/TS/MPEG videos for Apple TV streaming on Mac.

Due to format compatibility issues, Apple TV 2 owners are always having troubles streaming Blu-ray, DVD movies and 1080p/720p videos to Apple TV for playing back. To make things much easier, you can read through Pavtube's Apple TV Column page and find out the most suitable solution to your problem.

New Blu-Ray/DVD Releases (8/05/14)

The first weekend of August isn't a bad weekend, at least in terms of box office Tnumbers. Divergent earned $150 million domestically, but wasn't able to win over critics. The only wide release coming out this week that earned good reviews was Oculus, but its reviews were much better than its box office numbers were. Here is Blu-ray and DVD Releases for August 5th, 2014.

Blu-ray Release for first week of August, 2014

I'll Follow You Down Blu-ray

A mystery that essentially announced the return of Haley Joel Osment to screens (he'll next be seen in a month and change in Kevin Smith's body horror indie Tusk), I haven't seen the product, so I can't vouch for it one way or another. If you're interested, I know you can do worse, so there's that.

12 O'Clock Boys Blu-ray

I can't say that I was aware of this documentary's existence prior to sitting down to write this column, if we're being honest. I'm sure it's solid enough, but I have no way to know for sure. You're on your own here kids with this one.

The Full Monty Blu-ray

A box office hit when it landed in theaters in 1997, director Peter Cattaneo's heartfelt comedy follows a group of six unemployed men who decide that they can each make a living as strippers. The film lands on Blu-ray for the first time with lots of special features, including two commentary tracks, deleted scenes and a retrospective look back at the film's impact over the last two decades.

The Man who Knew Too Little Blu-ray

Bill Murray is a hapless Blockbuster Video employee who, although he believes he's playing along to an interactive murder mystery game, is actually caught up in a diabolical plot involving a high-level political assassination. An underappreciated comedy gem, the film hits Blu-ray this week for the first time.

Need for Speed Blu-ray

Act of Valor helmer Scott Waugh brings the hit video game franchise to life with "Breaking Bad" star Aaron Paul behind the wheel in a race where the stakes mean absolutely everything. Paul and Waugh re-team for a new audio commentary track, which is accompanied by a variety of featurettes and deleted scenes. If you missed them when the film hit theaters, you can get it in Blu-ray disc now.

DVD Release for first week of August, 2014

Divergent DVD

Shailene Woodley stars in this adaptation of a dystopian Young Adult novel. After the success of The Hunger Games, Lionsgate upped the production budget for this film and it paid off, more or less. The reviews were mixed, but it earned $150 million domestically and $267 million worldwide.

Community: Season Five DVD

I'm still waiting for the screener for this release. I hear the dream of Six Seasons and a Movie isn't yet dead, so fans should be happy.

Oculus DVD

The best-reviewed wide release on this week's list. Unfortunately, it earned less than $30 million at the box office. Extras on the Blu-ray include an audio commentary track, deleted scenes, making of featurette, and the original short film it is based on. If you are a fan of the genre, it is worth picking up.

God's Not Dead DVD

A faith-based film that is clearly aimed at the choir and no one else. This led to a surprisingly strong box office, but terrible reviews. You are either in the target audience and don't care what I think, or you are not in the target audience and you've already moved onto the next release.

Ping Pong Summer DVD

A limited release that earned mixed reviews and opened below the Mendoza Line. Normally I wouldn't have mentioned it, but it is a slow week. Extras include an audio commentary track and a making of featurette, which is fine for this type of release.

Blu-ray/DVD disc Backup Tips:

So a lot of collectors may consider the digital copy of the new blu-ray dvd releases as the optimal way for safe storage. That is exactly a good idea. And this task can be perfectly completed with Pavtube BDMagic!

This is a professional ripping tool with very easy-to-use interface and has immense output format options; with this top Blu-ray Ripper, you can easily backup your Blu-ray/DVDs to MP4 file within a few clicks so that you can watch the new discs on your portable devices, tablet and tv smoothly.
