[QUOTE="Nordfinn, post: 1297771, member: 145794"] Is there a way to set the default audio stream for live TV? The default default, so to speak, for me seems to be English 6-channel. I have a stereo set up. If I set LAV filters to mix 6 channels down to 2, it sounds good, but the output, the volume, is noticeably lower (as confirmed by the meter in LAV filters), so I would prefer to use the 2-channel stream, but it seems I have to set it by hand each time. Can't find an option to change the default, either in the main program or in TV Configuration. Thanks much, N. [B]Further on this: [/B]I just now realize that not all broadcast TV has a 2-channel audio stream option. Indeed, the big commercial networks here in the US probably do not offer it (my options in New York City for those kinds of channels, are 6-channel English and 6-Channel Spanish). But public television often has a 2-channel option, especially for musical programs (which is how I became aware of this issue--trying to optimize sound for musical programs [e.g., "In Concert with the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center]). Perhaps this is all different in Europe. At any rate, maybe this just has to be handled manually, considering the different options for different channels. But if there were a way to have 2-channel be the default if 2 channel were available, that would be advantageous, for me, at least. [/QUOTE]
