  • Hi


    Have my TV connected with Sonos. There is sound on the TV but now the sound is gone on my formuler Z11 pro max box? No sound at all on mytvonline or youtube etc on the box. Ive tried to change HD cable but no. I tried to reset the box to fabric but no. Tried reset audio Optimazer but no. What is this and how do i get the sound back?

  • You didnt,by accident,press the mute button on your remote?

    Haha no. This is weird. I have tried everything. I want to throw the box out of the window. How can this even happen? I saw another thread about this problem but its closed and it didnt say anything how he fixed it, if he ever did. Tv - Sonos with HD-cable. Formulabox - Tv with HD-cable. It has worked perfectly fine 6 months and suddenly the sound just stopped on the box.

    Are you using the Formuler BT1 bluetooth remote? If yes,

    Open the Formuler remote app > select BT1 > Select Volume Setup >

    Check the Android System volume level and make sure it isn't all the way down.

    After that open the Software Update widget in the Settings and make sure you have the latest firmware installed on your device.

    Yes i have Formuler GTV-BT1. I have done that as well. Volume is at its highest and on FORMULER. I have the latest update on the box from 2th december. Is there any update i should do on the remote as well or is that the same as the update for the box? What can be the problem? Isnt this really weird?

  • Connect the Formuler to a different TV to see if the sound comes back

    Ive tried it now and the sound is working on my other TV. My wife told me that our toddler grabbed the formuler remote and after that the sound disappeared. So what could it be? Some setting that takes away the sound? It didnt work in none of the HDMI input so thats weird.

    I understand your struggles with toddlers and their fascination with remote controls :loudly_crying_face:

    Based on your observations after connecting the Formuler to a different TV there is a high possibility that some setting in the original TV's settings was changed. Check all menus related to audio in the TV's menu system. If all else fails, reset the TV as recommended by another user.

    Yes and they always find functions that i didnt now even exist.

    Ok that was the thing i really wanted to avoid :frowning_face: but if its the only option. You think it will work if i do so?

    Yes i tried every sound setting on the tv and change every setting but no sound :thinking_face:

    I admit my reason for recommending the tv reset is only based on the results of your trials and not previous experience or knowledge of your specific issues. I have never encountered the issue you are reporting before. Therefore there is a possibility the tv reset will not solve the no sound issue.

    One other thing you could try is to pair some BT earphones/buds/pods to your Formuler to see if the sound is reproduced when playing any media file.
