It sounds like there may be a compatibility issue between your Bose Lifestyle V30 home theater system and the Sony Blu-ray player when switching to the DVD input. The change from PCM 2.0 to AAC audio format might be causing the loss of sound. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve the issue: Check Blu-ray Player Audio Settings: Access the audio settings on your Sony Blu-ray player and ensure it is set to output PCM audio (if available). Some Blu-ray players have options to change the audio output format. Setting it to PCM 2.0 might help maintain audio compatibility with your Bose system. Check Bose System Settings: Review the audio settings on your Bose Lifestyle V30 system related to the DVD input. Make sure it is configured to accept PCM audio. Refer to the Bose user manual for instructions on how to access and adjust the audio settings. Firmware Updates: Check if there are any firmware updates available for both the Sony Blu-ray player and the Bose Lifestyle V30 system. Manufacturers often release updates to address compatibility issues and improve overall performance. Reset Bose System: Try performing a factory reset on your Bose Lifestyle V30. This can sometimes clear any configuration issues that may have arisen. Test Different Audio Inputs: Check if the issue persists when connecting the Blu-ray player to a different audio input on your Bose system (e.g., AUX, HDMI, etc.). This will help determine if the problem is specific to the DVD input or if it affects multiple inputs. Alternate Audio Connection: If possible, try using a different audio connection between the Blu-ray player and the Bose system. For example, if you are using HDMI, try using optical or analog audio cables (and vice versa). Contact Bose Support: If the issue persist

optical audio format is not aux

hook up computer straight to t.v with hdmi cable. then get two aux cables (usually red and white) and run them straight from tv audio OUTPUT to audio INPUT on bose system. them anytime you want surround sound even when your watching tv just press the aux button on the bose system controller. should be perfect.

if all sources and hdmi cable are good--you need the hdmi input board--dont know sonys letter designation

I have the same system. I have a Lifestyle and a Sony TV with a Samsung Blueray player. I also have an X-box 360, plus my pc with all my CDs (I-tunes) plays through my bose. Do this:

1. Use the optical cable for the blueray player to the Bose (AUX).
2. Use a digital audio cable from the cable box (either black or orange output) to the Bose CBL-SAT digital input. (it's a single audio cable)
3. For my PC, I'm using a digital cable from the pc to the Bose. I'm using the TV output because it's empty.
4. For my x-box (which I'm not too happy about) I'm using regular red-white audio cables from Bose TV input directly to the TV audio out. (You can play all of the above through this channel, but don't).

I figured the most important high quality sound should come from the blueray player and from watching regular cable tv. For picture, you should be using all HDMI connections.

Hope this helps.

audio has to connected seperatly.vs 2 is for video connection only..Bose is a ripoff.... u pay all that money and you need a seperate audio connection plus all those wires..it isn't worth it and regret i bought it.

hi there,

1-connect the blu-ray to your tv via hdmi cable and this will run picture.

2-connect the blu-ray via digital optical cable to the optical input on the bose system. then using your bose menu, (system menu)set your auxillary sound output to digital optical.

when watching dvd thru bluray player select aux on the bose and you're away.

good luck

Your Bose system doesn't lead sound trough hdmi.
You must connect the optical cable with your lifestyle.
Change the sound connectionsettings in the menu of your ps3.

You also need to assgn the optical connection in the setup menu of the lifesyle. e.g. optical=aux.
