How to get DTS or Dolby sound out of my TV ??


Ive got one of those Dvd/Stereo Combo systems with Speakers
connection. 5.1 the system supports DTS and Dolby.


I dont want to buy another set of speakers so i want to runt he TV
though the same speakers and my Combo system.

How would i go about doing this. The Tv has many Audio inputs and
video outputs. Would it be as simple as connecting a cable from audio
out on the Tv to one of the Audio ins on the Stereo. And if i did that
when ever i turn the Tv on would the sound come ot automaticly on the
Stereo and the speakers. And i could control the volume via the
volume controls via the stereo. And maybe some of the 5.1 preset sound
options Surround Sound ect.

Thanks for any help.

/pS getting the TV tommorow and just would liek to know these things.
Dont mnd getting another set of speaker sfor the TV but if i dont need
them. Will stop the Clutter of speakers everywhere :)

Thanks.

What are you using as your source? i.e. cable, satellite, or DVD. That's
where the encoded audio signal comes from. You have to feed that source
into your decoder (receiver or processor).

Forget about audio through the TV.

Run a digital audio interconnect from DVD to your receiver.
Run a video interconnect (s-video or component) from DVD
to your TV. Couldn't be any easier.

BTW, how's Charlie and the rest of the Angels?
