User Manual For Panasonic Sc Htb3 Sound Bar And Grill

I recently purchased a Panasonic SC-HTB20 soundbar to work with my Panasonic TX-L37G10b TV.
Unfortunately I cant get any sound to come out of the sound bar when connected to the TV!!
I understand that the TV isn't ARC compatible, but the instructions for the soundbar say it can be connected with an HDMI cable and an optical cable. I have all of the cables in the right place according to the instructions but still no sound!!!
I have managed to get sound out of the sound bar when i connect it to my Humax freesat box using the optical cable so i am pretty sure the soundbar and optical/HDMI cable are working OK.
It's like the TV isn't sending out an optical signal - all very frustrating!
Any assistance gratefully received.

    I would try HDMI or optical, not both. Get one working first.

    thanks for your reply Stig.
    from my limited understanding the HDMI needs to be connected so that the VIERA link works, as the TV isn't ARC compatible the optic cable is required to transmit the sound info.
    i have tried several combination of one cable/both cables but no success. :-(

    Check the toslink cable from the TV has a red light at the end when the TV is on.
    Try Menu - Sound - SPDIF Selection set to PCM.

    Unplug the HDMI, just have the optical cable connected. That way you eliminate any hassle caused by Viera link, eg doing something stupid like muting the speakers. That way the soundbar should work just like it does with the direct Humax connection.
    If you cannot get any sound out of the TV then do this check. Dim the lights and unplug the optical cable from the back of the soundbar. Point the cable plug at a sheet of paper. If there is a red glow visible then the TV is outputting something. If there is no red glow then the TV is not.
    If there is no red glow check the socket on the back of the TV. I have seen some sockets with a small spring loaded lid on them. As you insert the plug the lid folds into the socket and helps keep the plug secure. If the lid breaks the plug can flop about a bit in the socket and not make a decent optical connection. There is also the possibility that if the socket had no dust cap/lid that it has got dirty and the light output is compromised. A quick wipe with a very lightly dampened cotton bud might restore it.
    And of course always check for 'operator error' I see from the diagram in the manual that the ethernet socket is right next to the optical socket. Just double check you have plugged into the right socket

    thanks chrisjr.
    i have tried your suggestion and still no joy :-(
    i have also tried connecting the sound bar to my Panasonic bluray player and that doesn't work either.
    weird!

    OK lets do this 'painting by numbers style'
    Check the connections on the back of the sub. Make sure the optical lead is in the 'TV (OPT 1)' socket.
    Check the indicators on the front of the sub to make sure the 'TV' source LED is lit. If not press the remote button or the SOURCE button on the sub to select it.
    Check the volume control is not on zero and the MUTE button has not been pressed.
    If the other end of the optical cable is connected to something outputting a signal then one of the DOLBY, DTS or PCM format LEDs on the sub front panel should light up. If they don't then either the soundbar does not recognise the format of the audio signal, the signal is too weak to lock onto it properly or there is in fact no output from the connected device.
    If the Humax works plug that in and see which audio format LED lights up. If it is PCM then set up the Blu-Ray to output PCM (may also be called LPCM) over optical. Should be an option in the config menus to do this. If you were playing some flavour of surround signal the soundbar can't cope with then that might explain why the Blu-Ray didn't work.
    If setting the player to PCM still does not make any noise then try a different optical lead. It is always possible there is some fault with the lead that is screwing up the Blu-Ray and TV but not the Humax.
    And of course do the red glow test I mentioned just to confirm there is actually anything coming out of the TV and Blu-Ray player.

    Chrisjr, thanks for the paint by numbers, have followed it, but still no joy. The lights on the front of the sub are right, we get DTS or PCM depending on the channel. We don't have an option to select output pcm.
    We have a red glow and we have the Humax that works (or did), the tv recognises the surround as when we switch it mutes but the sub doesn't emit.
    We've also just blown 2 fuses and now it doesn't work at all, so I think we are sending the box back, unless you think there's any other causes of the issues. Thanks for you help chaps >:(

    I have an HTB18 and there was no sound from the TV via optical. I bought a new, cheap optical cable and it fixed it.

    Sorry to bump an old thread, but I have just bought a Panasonic Sound Bar and was hoping for some help please if poss?
    I've bought this one and set it up using an optical cable.
    The issue I'm having is with any action or scenes in TV shows/movies etc where music accompanies them.
    For example I watched a bit of an action film last eve and throughout it I had to turn the sound up when the actors were speaking but then had to turn it right down if any music accompanied any scenes as the music became too loud.
    I've taken the sub woofer out of the equation because even at the lowest setting it booms too much for my neighbours to cope with. So it is switched off (which I don't mind really)
    I've tried clear voice mode, which indeed makes the voices clear but doesn't stop any music from being too loud with it.
    I'm gone through every mode and setting but still have to constantly turn the sound up and down when watching anything, which is a real bind.
    I'm hoping I haven't just bought a very expensive door stop, so was hoping for some tips or tricks of the trade please from you SoundBar gurus out there to advise on what else I could try giving a go?
    Cheers

    First thing to do is check what the TV is feeding the sound bar. Set it to PCM Stereo if it is not already.
    Try it on an SD Freeview channel. These tend to use a lot more dynamic range compression than HD or DVD/Blu-Ray disks so there tends to be less variation in level between speech and music.
    Also make sure the built in TV speakers are muted when using the sound bar.
    The other thing you can do, which will need the TV speakers working, is to compare the sound from the TV speakers to the soundbar. There should be no difference between the signal fed to the TV speakers and the optical out. So all things being equal you should be cranking the TV speaker volume up and down just as much as with the soundbar. Be sure that when doing this comparison that only one set of speakers is active at any one time.
    If there is a significant difference between soundbar and TV speakers then that suggests the problem could be with the soundbar
