Sorry but I still do not understand... Xh95 doesn't have any hdmi 2.1 port and an audio system connected to the earc port doesn't need 120hz

Earc Is a feature that can be implemented also on hdmi 2.0 and your TV has it. Not 4k HDR 120hz that require a full hdmi 2.1 bandwidth

@zois_13

The graphic you posted shows that the only HDMI 2.1 feature on the X950H is eARC, and the other three features are not ticked.

It is also reporting that Sony themselves are saying 4K120 cannot be added to this set in firmware.

A thing that has always been true about HDMI versions is that not every feature in a version has to be present for a device to claim compliance with the version, as long as it has some of the features, and lists which ones it does (or doesn’t) have.

This seems to have been clear enough in previous version of HDMI; and even now, no-one expects 4K Sony TVs to possess the 8K attributes in the HDMI 2.1 specs (do they?)

But now we have confusion because there are some HDMI 2.1 attributes that you might expect Sony 4K TVs to have, and only some of them do have the 4K120, VRR and ALLM; though all have the eARC that gives them a subset, at least, of HDMI 2.1 attributes.

Oh, and by all means post the Greek, though please put it through Bing Translate and post the resulting English as well.

According to this article: https://www.sony.co.uk/electronics/support/articles/00254857 This model only supports eARC from the HDMI 2.1 features.
