Hi there experts, I need some advice!

I'm a little baffled with the options to get the best audio and video for my setup. I'm looking to buy a new TV and have settled on the LG OLED CX as it seems to be the best one out there at the current time. I also have:

- 861v8
- DSP5200 fronts
- DSP5200SEHC
- DSP3200 rears
- DSW
- XBOX Series X

Now the XBOX does not have any optical out, so I have to get audio via the HDMI cable to my current Samsung break-out box, and then aptical from their to the 861. I set the XBOX to bitstream in order to get 5.1.
Is there a better way when I get the new LG TV?

I've been reading things about the UHD722 but it seems to be a bit behind on technology - doesn't support HDMI 2.1 etc.
Does Meridian plan to upgrade this unit? Replace it with another HDMI switch?

Cheers,
Dennis
