    How to change VUDU audio from TV speakers to surround

    I access Vudu via my Samsung 6500 Series Smart TV, and the VUDU audio comes out the TV's built-in speakers. However, I want the sound to come out my 7.1 surround sound system. The only connection currently between the surround sound receiver & the TV is an HDMI cable. Is there a way to send the sound back through this HDMI cable to the receiver so the sound can come through the surround sound speakers? If not, would I have to connect the Optical Audio Out (on the TV) to the receiver? Thanks a lot!!!

    I don't know specifically if your Samsung model (*and* your receiver) supports ARC (Audio Return Channel) over HDMI - if so, you may be able to use that. Otherwise, you will need to connect the optical out to the receiver, as you said.

      I have the same problem with my Sharp AQUOS and Yamaha RX373 receiver...

      HDMI with ARC enabled... All apps except Vudu send audio back to the receiver... When Vudu is launched, the audio from the FIOS box remains...

      Seems like it has to be a Vudu issue...

        HDMI connection with ARC enabled...

        Every app other than Vudu works - hear audio through the receiver when the app loads...

        Seems like a Vudu issue...
