Use the RCA cable to connect from astro decoder to your HT

I've connected all 3 cable (white/yellow/red) from astro decoder to HT.
Then i connected hdmi cable from HT (Using HDMI Out port) to my TV..
But after that I didn't see or hear anything.. err.. did i miss out anything?

Can't you connect your Astro to your TV direct to one of the AV channels and then connect Red and White from TV Monitor Out to your HT? That way, you get to enjoy your Astro using HT speakers.

You must connect the yellow connector to tv. Astro cannot support digital signal. That is why no picture. What port you connect your red and white connector to?

The LG HT964TZ got video IN or not? I doubt so.

Thx bro..

From Astro, I'll connect all three (Yellow, Red & White) cable to TV.
Then from TV, I'll connect 2 (Red and White) cable to HT. - This means now I have to go buy an RCA cable since I dun have any more cable left.. rite?

I would think that the HT set comes with the red and white cables, it came with mine at least.

And HDMI from HT to TV?

Yesterday I dint connect any cable from TV to HT. All from Astro straight to TV. But this one I can hear sound and see picture.



I dun see any video IN. Therefore I think my HT dun have any Video IN.

Here's a picture of port for my TV and HT.

if you dont have extra red and white cable, just use the exisiting is still able to connect. Just connect the yellow for video to TV. Then connect the red & white from Astro Decoder to your HT in AUX in. This will give you picture to TV and sound to your HT.

o.ok.. thx again bro.. i'll try that and share the outcome soon.

Added on November 9, 2009, 10:34 pmI've tried using the RCA cable from Astro to TV and then goes back to HT but somehow I cant get the sound out from my HT. I can only see pic but no sound.

Here's example of my setting.



ps/ I've also tried playing movie from my PS3. I use ps3 hdmi into the HT and then goes out to TV using HDMI Out port on my HT. This one is successful. I can see pic and hear sound.

What port did you connect the RCA cables to your HT ? You need to select the function as from your user manual
