guys, im wondering how you guys paired astro byond HDMi to TV, but output audio to my Home Theatre system..

how do you guys configure this?? understood that HDMI has audio in it. But if i connect it to my LED TV, the audio out will use TV speaker instead of my sound system right??

so, i need to audio out from Astro to my sound system amp??

please kindly advise.

thanks!!

Depends on your TV whether it can audio out and what formats supported.  Also the audio (co-ax or optical - cannot remember which) may be the other option.

Somebody may be able to help you more.

my tv is Sharp Aquos Quattron LED 830M TV which does have the audio out adapter. But understood that this HDMI cable is 2 way communication.

If i have another hdmi from my DVD+Decoder(a Home Theatre System) player connected to my TV via another HDMI input, can my tv re-direct this audio output and use my Theatre System speakers??

Else, have to resort to AStro Byond direct to my theatre system.

am i on the right track??

Try this one..

TV <---- HDMI 1 ----> Astro byond
TV <---- HDMI 2 ----> Home theatre (for playing dvd)
TV <---- Optical ----> Home theatre (for sound from Astro/DVD)

if you have PS3/xbox/wii/Media player, connect them to other HDMI ports.

my configuration..

Sharp LE820M + astro beyond + home theatre (dvd player) + ps3 + media player..  all sounds come home theatre link to tv via optical cable..

hope this help..

thanks bro.

this means the TV will redirect the audio from HDMI to Home Theatre via the optical cable?

this means the audio out all from TV itself. does the Home Theatre sound decoders to process the audio, or its the TV that's processing the audio??

how about if i buy this Sony SoundBar: http://www.sony.com.my/product/ht-ct150

it has 3 HDMI input. Both Bluray and Astro B.yond output to this Soundbar, then 1 HDMI output to TV. it works the same way too right??

thanks!

You may be better off buying a AV Receiver (AVR) depending on your budget.

My setup Astro (HDMI)      > Yahama AV (HDMI) > TV
              Blue-Ray (HDMI) > Yahama AV
              etc

One single connection to the TV from AVR.  Non-hd content is upscaled at the AVR end.  TV are not too great with upscaling usually.

oo~~ understood your point. means to have all AV input to AVR, the it powers up the speakers, as well as video to TV.

any recommended AV receiver with tight budget of perhaps around RM700??

thanks!
