Problems with my 450HDs

My headset has died on my in the last day or two. The last time I remember them working I had them paired to both my phone and laptop now they won't turn on properly... they make static and don't get past the connecting stage of the start-up. Is this a physical issue or is it software related? I have tried many times to reset the headset however have not managed to do so before the headset turns off. The headset is at 100% battery as well

Any pointers would help heaps, Cheers

Ambeo Max TrueHD Frequency issue

I'm hoping someone else has come across this issue before.

What I've had happen is whenever I try to play any content that uses the TrueHD audio codec if it has a higher hz range than 48khz the soundbar makes a horrible clicking sound and won't play the audio correctly.

I've done quite a few tests to narrow the issue down. Anything using the DTS-HD MA or DTS:X codec at similar frequencies is fine (tested at 192khz).

I've also tested with a different soundbar (Sony HT-A7000) using the same movie with no issues. The movie has a TrueHD track at 192khz.

This definitely seems like a software issue to me specifically with the implementation of the TrueHD Codec and not a hardware issue.

I've had a very long support ticket open with a lot of back and forth where at one point they said it's 100% a software issue but now they've flipped on that and said I need to send the unit in to be looked at.

Overall the whole process has been very frustrating as aside from this the soundbar has been amazing.
