Streaming from Netflix: I stream from netflix and only get Stereo sound for audio and never Dolby digital or anything else, why is that?

That's got nothing to do with the router. You need to ask Netflix. What device are you using to stream the Netflix? The device may not support it or Netlix simply doesn't do Dolby.

I'm not a Netflix guy, but I believe if you are using your TV to access Netflix via WiFi you need to output the audio to the STR DN850 and select TV as the Input. You can use an Optical Audio Cable to pass the audio signal from your TV to the STR DN850. I do access Pandora from my TV and pass the audio to the STR DN850 and it works for me.Alternatively, if you have another device that can access Netflix (i.e. a Blue Ray Disc player) you could access Netflix via that device and pass the audio/video via HDMI to the DN850 and then the video to the TV. That should work as well.

I bought this specifically to extract Netflix audio but it didn't work for me. Regardless of where I set the audio switch on the adapter I still have to set Netflix to a standard stereo signal to hear anything. I feed my digital signal into a Radio Shack AV switch, then into a Sony receiver.

I don't use Netflix, but according to my research Netflix is still trying to bring 4K streaming to life. The reason is because 4K streaming takes double the bandwidth. Most consumers use only about half the bandwidth required for 4K streaming. I use 4K discs, such as Men In Black (4K version) to watch in 4K. Also, I have a Sony receiver that upscales to 4K (actually near 4K). I stream through it. I use Amazon Instant Video. According to some of the techno geeks, you have to check with your ISP to see if they have you connected up to a 15Mbps (minimum) service. Higher is better. Low streaming speeds will interfere with your 4K streaming; thus, you'll never achieve 4K delivery. Many ISP companies are trying to catch up to the demand. Therefore, check with your ISP to verify your connection speed. If it's too slow, you'll have to upgrade your service. Any 4K signal that goes into the HDMI port of your Sony TV will display as 4K. You have to make sure it's a 4K signal.

Well, you do have analog left and right channels coming from Wii (I mean, the sound has got to come from somewhere, right?), which you could plug into any vacancy you might have. Or, if you have one, run a digital line OUT of your TV to the receiver. This would work for everything you had hooked up to your TV already when you add the Onkyo receiver. If everything was digital, this would work fine. In my case, I had analog running from the DVD; now have coaxial running to the receiver to get Dolby Digital (left the component video cables hooked to the TV rather than buy another set). Netflix and Wii just announced that you will be able to stream movies in over your Wii wireless connection! You will receive a disc to insert into your console, and then... The Onkyo receiver does a decent job of faking a surround sound. I guess the day is coming for a new Wii console with digital sound.

Mine works great for Netflix, don't use it for much anything else unless I'm bored or curious to see what else is online to watch. For an older unit it still hangs in there with some newer models and plays just about anything, I use the PS3 media server to stream movies that wouldn't otherwise play thru smart media or usb. I haven't seen any updates for the firmware since I got mine, but that may not be unusual since I haven't seen any problems other than some codecs that don't play unless streaming them from a PC.

Yes to all. See my other answers. I subscribe to Netflix and have not had any issues. But typically, my TV and my AppleTV box can all stream Netflix so I usually do not turn my Blu-ray on for Netflix although it does stream it with no problems.

In Sound Properties, there is a Stereo Mix option (IDT High Definition Codec). Not sure what it does or if works.

I have XMBC (frodo build) installed on my EB1503 (as I use the box as a media server) it has no problems with any of the HD audio associated with video codecs (DTS & Dolby TrueHD). I've never tried streaming from an online source (as I only have DSL). My audio/video goes over HDMI to my Onkyo TX-NR608. My experience would say that it is your decoding software having problems, not the EB1503 hardware.

No. I do not know which programs are transmitted in 4K by Netflix but I have tried several different programs and I am not receiving 4K resolution?

I just got a PS3 and the streaming Netflix feature is only by way of inserting a Disc provided from Netflix which uses BD live to stream the content (from what I've read). It may be specific to the PS3, but it would be worth it to pop that disc into the Sony S560 and see if it can do it the same way. This disc is free from Netflix to customers by requesting one at www.netflix.com/PS3Someone try it out and post back here. If it works, I would consider getting this unit for the bedroom.

I'm sorry, I have no idea. The only thing I play on mine are standard DVDs, mostly from Netflix.

Netflix does not offer 4K streaming. Available Netflix streaming works excellent.

It happens to me when I did not set the audio output to PCM (from the source) in Netflix occurs in some languages. Not sure if we are talking about the same.

I had a similar problem on my Xbox 360 through HDMI. The trick that worked for me was to set the AUDIO OUT under the HDMI settings in the receiver menu to AMP. It was set to AMP/TV and for some reason that doesn't allow for DTS or Dolby Digital. Good luck!
