2014-12-23 Thread Mary Otten
Hi all, I hope this is not out of bounds for this list. I have a 2nd generation Apple tv, which is the first one to have had voice over available. It is up to date. If I connect this apple tv to a tv via the hdmi cable, voice over sounds through the tv's crappy speakers as expected, and it is

Ahhh, sorry missed that part. Knowing that I'd say it probably has no affect but I'd give it a shot anyhow. Wouldn't hurt. If it was running to the AV receiver I'd say try game mode if your receiver had one but in the case of a sound bar, I'm at a loss. Best regards, Rick Alfaro -Original
