I have now connected my Sony Blu-ray player to my LG smart TV. At
first it would not work properly (blurred image, strange colour). I
think was because a set-up process is needed - not just a case of
plugging it into the HDMI port. However, although the Blu-ray works
fine, with a standard DVD the sound level is substantially lower. Is
this normal?
Depends what you mean by "normal". It's unlikely to be a fault; there
are differences between the sound formats used on Bluray and DVD, some
aural (like increased dynamic range and multi-channel sound) and some electronic (like bit and sampling rates). Any of these might be handled differently by the TV to give a lower volume.
If you're lucky, the TV will have a "volume equalising" setting, which
will allow you to turn up the gain on that input, and/or a volume
setting on the player which might be turned down.
Otherwise, I'm afraid you're stuck with it, sorry.
