Ever heard of Dolby Surround 😜😁😎

lo

But Dolby is something completely different from 5.1

One is surround sound and the other is not.

5.1 means:

5 speakers (front left, right and in the middle one, rear left and right one).

1 subwoofer

The setting is there to make full use of your system if it is a 5.1 system.

lo

Sure, the other is probably 2.1. Is also surround, not mono

Ka

2.1 is not surround. 2.1 is stereo with a subwoofer.

Stereo is not yet surround sound, because stereo only contains the information "left or right" and not also "front / back" or "top / bottom".

lo

You're right, oops

If you only have 2 boxes, you better use "normal" German, it is better adapted to it.

If you have a system with several speakers and an extra subwoofer, use the 5.1 socket.

What do you hear the sound of Netflix about?

Via the integrated loudspeaker in the television

And what kind of sound system is built into the TV? Have a look to see if it's stereo sound. Simply google or enter the model and we will find the optimal sound settings for you.

Then take the 2.0 sound ("German" without addition). This will give you the more optimized results.
