“I’m hoping to use the 2 HDMI outputs like this: One goes to a projector for the video, the other goes to a Sonos Arc sound beam for an eARC connection from Dolby Atmos. Will this receiver work for that?”

I spent a couple of days trying to get a similar setup working. I have a Google Chromecast with Google TV connected to HDMI-IN CATV port on DN1080. I have the DN1080 HDMI-A-OUT port connected to my Sony 8AH TV's eARC port. I have the DN1080 HDMI-B-OUT port connected to my Sony HTST5000 soundbar's HDMI1-IN port. I played around with the DN1080 HDMI settings and Zone settings, and I could only manage to get audio out on my DN1080 speakers separately from my soundbar. I could not get both the wired speakers and the soundbar going at the same time. Is it because one output device is video and the other is audio? I thought the DN1080's "HDMI Zone" functionality would handle this scenario based on this (https://helpguide.sony.net/ha/strdn108/v1/en/contents/TP0001224850.html) and this (https://helpguide.sony.net/ha/strdn108/v1/en/contents/TP0001224916.html) from the DN1080 User Guide.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi MrGuy, You cannot connect a soundbar to this AV receiver. The AV receiver has a zone 2 function but can only play analog source. Check the link below for sample diagram. https://helpguide.sony.net/ha/strdn108/v1/en/contents/TP0001221308.html Regards, David
