    Hello,

    I would like streaming music through SPDIF to my Harman audio amplifier,
    but Optical audio out not work without a connected HDMI, if I turn off the TV, the sound is cut off. Anyone knows the solution?

    Regards, Pepek

    strange problem, as mine work's trough spdif with TV off, make sure any form of CEC is disabled ( in box settings and in tv settings )

    Thank you for your answer

    Yes, CEC I have disabled (The TV not have CEC- old model)
    If I just unplug the HDMI plug, zido cut adio from SPDIF output,
    if I plug in HDMI (TV must be ON), the sound immediately comes back.
    I tried all the settings (I am IT specialist) and did not work.
    Can only my Zido have it? Can someone check your plaer?
