Normally I am ok with connecting home electronics but I haven't sorted this one yet. Trying to get the audio output from a Panasonic TX-P42G20B through to the speakers on a LG HT805TH 5.1 DVD home cinema system. I have HDMI and Optical cables connecting the two of them, but there must be a menu setting on the tv or dvd that I need to change to allow the audio to be output via the dvd speakers. :ashamed:
Any ideas where I can look?

Can you not feed everything to the surround sound then send the picture on to the TV instead of the other way around?
-
Thanks. According to the manual it should work with the current cable arrangement, but I'll look into routing it through the surround sound and see if that solves it.

I have a Panasonic Plasma TV and Panasonic DVD player with 5.1 surround system connected by HDMI leads.
I found that in order to get sound output from the TV or SKY+ box thru the DVD and SS,I have to set the DVD player to AV,otherwise there just isn't any sound signal.
Dunno if this helps,but it's worth a try.
-
May sound daft, but do you need a HDMI output from the TV and not an input or are they 2 way transfer cables?
-
Will try switching the cables around tomorrow when I get home.
Hurdy - My understanding was that the optical cable would allow the audio output to be routed to the DVD unit....... :confused:
