A: Try this:
- Make sure you are installing HDMI 1.4 cables that include ARC, see our specs at HDMI cables with ARC
- The TV must support ARC and ARC must be turned ON
- The unique TVs HDMI input must say it supports ARC as the below picture says
- Set the AV receiver, or other device, to ARC ON
- Make sure CAT6/7 UTP/STP connectors are put on "B" if you have HDMI over CAT6 extenders

- Leave EDID at its default or set it to ARC if you devices have user adjustable EDID
A: Stereo audio
Q: What is ARC?
A: The (ARC) Audio Return Channel in HDMI 1.4 enables a TV, via a single HDMI cable, to send audio data "upstream" to an A/V receiver or surround audio controller, increasing user flexibility and eliminating the need for any separate S/PDIF audio connection.
TVs have always been able to receive multi-channel audio through an HDMI connection, and this is still a typical use-case, with the TV positioned "downstream" from content sources and any connected audio equipment. However, if a user had a TV with a built-in tuner or DVD player, and wanted to send content "upstream" from the TV back to the audio system, a separate connection had to be installed, typically an S/PDIF cable.
Q: Do the optional HDMI extenders to 300 feet support Remote IR?
A: They send perfect audio and video up to 300 feet but the remote IR doesn't support this device as it only works with with 1-source & 1-TV. See our RF remote controls if you want to control all your devices from afar.
