Connecting sound from Freesat to HomePod via Apple TV and eArc

[capt]

Hello everyone, though not a new customer of Overclockers I am new to the forums, so hello

Hopefully someone can help with the below, so thank you in advance.

This is what I want to achieve:
Watching CNBC though projector, and sound coming out of HomePod stereo (via Apple TV & eArc, as I believe that’s the only way)

I currently have an Apple TV 4K box and a HD projector (doesn’t support arc/eArc that I am aware) so I am ideally looking for a Freesat box (only way to free CNBC in the U.K. that I am aware of) that can support eArc so I can play the sound through the HomePod stereo.

If anyone knows of a Freesat box that can support this or has another suggestion on how to set it up please let me know

Ps. Maybe what I am trying to achieve isn’t possible and it’s the projector itself that needed to support eArc for the audio to get from a Freesat box to the stereo HomePods via the Apple TV via the projector itself (as the Freesat is not physically attached to the Apple TV, only the project is (which is acting as the ‘TV’ in this set up)
