Using HDMI (EArc) and other HDMI Plugs on Roku TV

Jump to solution

Can you confirm that when adding Dish TV to the TV, I should use either HDMI #2, #3 or #4. And that I should use HDMI (Earc) for only the sound bar? I plan to buy your sound bar for 5.1.

Welcome to the Roku Community, @David_Moore!

Thanks for reaching out. We'd be happy to share further information about this. 

Yes. You should plug your Dish TV into the HDMI port of your Roku TV and you should use the HDMI (eARC) port to plug in your Roku soundbar.
