Since retuning after switch-over I no longer receive audio in 5.1 on the HD channels, including BBC HD. My set top box is Digital Stream DHR 8205U. Why is that?
I am tuned to Pontop - no problem viewing

Briantist: The AV receiver is 5 days old and connected via HDMI and working perfectly The HD pvr Digital Stream DHR 8205U is less than 2 years old and connected to AV via optical. Prior to switch over it inputted and outputted 5.1 from HD channels but now only 2.1.Manufacturer says if the 5.1 icon is not lit then it's because 5.1 is not being transmitted - but it was before switchover?

MikeB: My Panasonic HD TV doesn't have an optical output and its inbuilt freeview is not HD hence the connection to the Digital Stream HD pvr. The sync.is good.
I haven't contacted BBC N.E. but logically if I had the 5.1 service before switchover then I should have it afterwards.

Hi Mike, it's Panasonic Plasma TH-37PX80B.
The in/out audio are jack sockets. The TV is 4 years old.

MikeB: Can you tell me at what time and what channel the BBC broadcasts its test page. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
