Guys,

Need some help...really noob on this...I just bought a home theater cinema and a LCD TV recently. Both of them are connected by HDMI cable. Whenever I played a movie from my receiver (dont know what to call but it cames with the home theater package), I was able to hear pretty nice sound produced by the speakers. How to make the sound also came out from the speaker when I watch any TV programme from my ASTRO?????

Pls advise. notworthy.gif

Connect the audio out (red & white cables) from ur astro decoder into ur AVR. When watching Astro oso switch on ur AVR & choose the appropriate input - TV/ Sat/ Cable/ Aux

oooo..

thanx guys...i thought by using HDMI I will be able to hear the sound as well from my HT...somebody tell me that if i used HDMI, i need no more additional cable as this cable carries both input (audio + visual)...is it only applicable for movie played by my HTIB??

means i still need to use other cable (white & red)? by the way i tried before connecting this white+red cable from astro decoder to my HT receiver, but nothing happened...

perhaps i missed out the appropriate setting for it...anybody know how its setting?really appreciate ur help guys....hehehehe...

Ur HTiB has a HDMI output? If yes then u connect ur Astro (all other source) into the HTiB and HDMI ur HTiB to ur LCD.

Ok, at the moment I think the audio wires (red and white) from your Astro and DVD are connected to your LCD TV input right?

Then in your LCD TV look for the TV out audio jacks (also red and white). Get the wires and connect from TV out to your amp input (maybe choose AUX1).

So when you are watching either Astro or dvd, in your amp select the AUX1 and you will hear sound from your speakers (and your LCD TV also have sound as usual).

IMHO the more conventional way would be to connect the Astro (red & white) & DVD (toslink?) audio output to your AVR; LCD u connect ONLY Video output (S-video from astro or yellow RCA) unless ur AVR has an upscaler the u connect all source (audio & video) to AVR and HDMI to LCD.

Unless u oso want audio to come fr ur LCD.....
