Phantom and TV optical out
#1
Can you use Phantom for a TV using optical output of TV and input of Dialog? Will there be sync issues with audio and video?

Yes you can but go direct to Phantom. Dialog will introduce a slight delay.

You can double the optical signal and set each phantom in optical direct mode to a seperate channel

How do you exactly do this?

Hi for me you don’t neccesarily need to do anything fancy if you can cope with slight delays depending on the TV / Sky / Netflix etc

I just put optical into one phantom and dialogue does the rest. Occasionally I notice slight lip sync issues but generally it seems spot on

Maybe I am lucky with my TV / Sky set up - or maybe I am less fussy than some

It will still be in stereo.

No, no?, you need only one optical signal for stereo and you can connect him to your dialog or to one of the phantoms. To one of the phantoms is preferred

You are talking about different things. Splitting the signal and using direct optical mode (see other thread in the forum) is for minimizing the audio delay by skipping the dialog completely.
