My TV has optical out, but when connected to my surround sound it doesnt gove Dolby5.1 or DTS. I have to plug the optical lead into my Xbox 360 before I can get Dolby or DTS. | |

the tv i'm getting has optical out. My plan is to run optical out from the tv to my amp so i'm getting digital sound and then run another optical out from the dvd direct into amp as well. So now i'm got digital from both. | |

can u get a optical lead longer than 1.5m? i've not seen one personally but was wondering what people have used to run digital sound from a lcd tv (thats mounted on the wall) into a amplifier for surround sound thats situated in a corner of a room for example? |
