No sound !

Happy New Year to all. I dusted off my old receivers , to set 'em up for relatives. I do have a fully working openboxS9 , with no issues. The 2 I am trying to load are a Visionsat , and a pansat clone. All the sats I wanted scanned and , are working fine.......except on 125w . The pictures come in fine . However no sound on 125w. The S9 is perfect , but both the others have no sound , ONLY on 125 . All other sats have sound . I do not alter any settings. If I go to 123W. all is fine. I am using the same dish , one receiver at a time with no diseq switch . Any ideas ? Thanks.

The S9 decodes AC3 audio the Visionsat and Pansat do not.

This thread should assist. http://www.satelliteguys.us/free-air-fta-discussion/261298-dolby-digital-ac-3-format-help.html

yep the HD receivers can decode AC-3 through the RCA cables/HDMI
Most other receivers you need a separate audio decoder
