OREI eARC 4K 60Hz Audio Extractor, Extract Dolby Atmos Convert Sound bar 18G HDMI 2.0 ARC Support HDCP 2.2 Dolby Digital/DTS Passthrough CEC, HDR, Dolby Vision, HDR10 Support for Sonos Bose (HDA-929)

Item works great. Have this running off a KVM to a soundbar and a monitor. Did exactly what I needed it to do.

I have a 12 year old Yamaha RX-V665 receiver. It doesn't support any of the new tech, like Dolby Atmos or DTS:X, which is fine, but it also doesn't output past 1080p, which is a real deal breaker. I have a 4k HDR10+ TV, and the only way up until now to have this tv and receiver setup was to use an optical cable. What sucks tho is the optical cable is only compatible with 5.1 compressed, and it sounds far worse than using the direct HDMI from the receiver. That's where this device solves all my problems. This device allows me to have 4K HDR10+ video direct to my TV, and the audio extracted to an HDMI input to my receiver. So my receiver thinks I have the Roku plugged into it directly, giving me full 5.1 uncompressed, and I still get the full quality from my TV. I've been looking for a device like this for a long time, as the only other solution was buying another expensive receiver to replace my fully functional Yamaha. And I'm so glad it worked out of the box no problems.

Only ARC works, but when trying eARC it doesn’t work Update: within hours of setting up it suddenly stopped working. If I could give it zero stars I would

So this was purchased to avoid the cost of the more expensive competitor. It does function, possibly even getting better quality audio. However, it doesn’t seem to fix the lip sync issue I’ve had since getting the Sonos Arc. My assumption is since the TV (LG OLED B7) has only Arc and not eArc it causes the delay. For me it seems to be a 100-200ms audio delay. Figured since this adjusts the audio it might solve the issue, sadly it doesn’t do such. Might still function for other uses though. Especially if you’re not using it to fix the lip sync issue I’m facing.

I use this device to connect my Apple TV, Sonos arc sound bar and my Samsung TV that doesn't have eARC HDMI. At first, I thought it didn't work and got to contact customer support because the device was not passing surround sound, only stereo. After explaining my setup they indicated to not enable the ARC/Earc button in the front. Something that was against my Audio Engineer instinct and the reason why I never thought about it as a possibility. But this was the solution. I am not able to try Dolby Atmos with my Apple TV but this is a limitation on my Apple TV device that doesn't support it. Only Apple TV 4K will have this option. All in all, great device at an affordable price. Very good size, so I was able to place it behind the TV. Super simple to setup.

I have a 2022 Vizio TV that is programmed to noise gate. It's been so annoying. Even when I bought a soundbar, the sound still processed through the TV before sending it to the soundbar. I found videos talking about hdmi audio extractors, and granted I did have to look up ports and specs to make sure I got an appropriate extractor, but I had high hopes. So I specifically have my Roku Stick plugged into the input port, and my TV and soundbar plugged into their appropriate eARC ports with eARC cables. While it absolutely fixed 99% of the noise gating, there are a bunch of quirks to this setup. The audio will still play out of the TV even when the soundbar is in use, so you have to mute the TV (my TV's speakers are absolutely garbage, which is why I keep bothering with the soundbar). That being said, the TV and Roku remotes do control the TV volume, but not the soundbar volume. So I mute the TV with its remote, and adjust the volume with the soundbar remote. Since it's not directly connected to the TV, the soundbar volume doesn't display on screen, which is fine. Like I said, the noise gating is virtually gone, but the setup has added a couple quirks to my routine. Also I may be crazy but I THINK the audio sounded a tiny bit better from the soundbar before doing this, except in situations where it was gating sound. But it's barely noticeable, and I'm in no way an audio expert.

Here is my setup NVIDIA RTX3090TI HDMI out to OREI eARC 4K and from there out to my soundbar and to LG HDMI 4K Monitor. Unfortunately, this device fails to work with this setup. It does display video feed and sound to the soundbar but there seems to be timing issues with the signal where the 4K LG Monitor will flicker to black multiple times before it starts working again. I tried to connect it with different HDMI cables that support the signal but no luck. This device might work with Bluray player or gaming console but as far as it goes for PC and GPU support it fails. I ended up finding another device that seems to work without issue of dropping signal. Can be found under this code B0F62S348K here on Amazon. I decided to return this one.

Does exactly what it says. I tried multiple extractors in past which either does not work with soundbars or does not support the expected video or audio formats but this is all in one. Will update back with longer usage review later.

Ideal se teu TV não suporta ou não deixa passar algum tipo de formato de audio para o equipamento de som.

It's working too good as expected. I had bought Sony Bravia Theatre 6 which support Dolby Atmos and I also had Fire TV MAX. Unfortunately my Tv was not having EARC port so I was not able to enjoy Dolby Atmos. I was searching for an option to make my new sound bar work as expected and came accross this on Amazon at first I was not sure weather it would work or not but there was a 10 days return policy so took a chance which was worth. So now I have connected the Fire TV MAX to this Device and EARC Audio Out connected to my Sony Sound bar and Video Out to the TV and it's working absolutely fine. Even though the instruction manual there is no mention of Dolby Atmos Format Support even though it's mentioned in the product introduction but after using the device I can say it's working too good or else I would have to wait to buy a new TV with EARC port as I had bought this TV just 6 months back. I would surely recommend this product if you have a Dolby Atmos AV receiver or a EARC Sound bar and Dolby Atmos Supported external devices such as Fire TV HD MAX with a Non EARC port TV to truly enjoy the Dolby Atmos. Ping me for any queries I would be happy to help on this.

Does work but comes with American plug adaptor, not much use in uk, had to buy another uk adaptor

Esta porquería no da dolby atmos, tengo Appletv 2023, conecte con cables hdmi 2.1 que compré en Amazon, al orei earc, la salida arc/earc a mi Sonos arc que lo tengo con sub 2 y dos era 300 y la out 1 a la pantalla Samsung lo conecte a un puerto hdmi 1 sin arc. Y también lo conecte al arc y en ninguna de las dos me da La configuración del Apple TV no detecta el Sonos arc como que puede manejar el Dolby atmos. Y se queda en 5.1. Espero que el vendedor me aclare esto y mejor regreso su porquería!!!!!

I have taken the little bit of time to give the review. Because I have to arrange the soundbar. This extractor eARC port will work through the mobile app of the soundbar. There is mentioned eARC port. You have to enable it. Then the enormous Dolby Atoms sound quality will enjoy. It is better OTT platforms. I am very satisfied to purchase this item for my old TV. I recommend it. This device is better, if you have a eARC port of your TV. This device has capable to extract better dolby atmos sound than your TV. My home is like a cinema hall.
