KD-43XD8077 vs KD-43XD8099 and 5.1 on optical

[diodorus]

 what are the differences between these two models? both seem silver (?) according to this link 

and is it correct that android apps (e.g. plex) do not send 5.1 audio to a receiver via optical?

thanks!

Hi there

I have had a scan through the differences between the two models.  Everything (including MotionFlow rate) is the same - except for the stand design and finish.

Model Code	KD-43XD8077	KD-43XD8099
Stand Design	Silver U Slate(Parallel)	Dark Silver U Slate(Parallel)
Finish (Surface Color)	Silver	Black

In regards to Android Apps using 5.1 via optical - this is up to individual app developers.  See: https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/167836/5-1-on-android-tv
