Hi Marcus

Yes, you are right from my experience at least smile

The audio settings in the TV will also affect what audio signals get sent via ARC/eARC...

Yes TOSLINK is preferable to ARC, as is getting a Bluray player that has two HDMI outputs.

Microsoft in their wisdom, decided to remove a TOSLINK output on the new Xbox's, I imagine others will follow suite.

Best regards,
Frank
