I have recently had tiscali TV installed and I think its great value.
One question, has anyone got the optical out to work? It shines red but amp not recognizing it. Any ideas?
Cheers.

Hi,
I know it's there, but at this point in time it's unsupported.

regards

Is it disabled for the Telsey and new PVR boxes?

I'm about to go out and buy a new optic cable to connect my box to my amp

Be warned that ched999uk has tried this and so far it's not worked.

I got the Tiscali + box installed recently and I am using the optical out without any problems. There was no way to enable it in the software options, it seems to already be enabled. It definately sounds better than what was coming via the TV.

Thanks for confirming this simplesi.

simplesi: Any ideas on the type of surround sound?

I am guessing that 5.1DD or DTS is hoping a bit too much. Hopefully in the future we can get 5.1.
