Hi,
Ive just (an hour ago) upgraded from Sky+ to HD and have a fantastic HD picture ... unfortunately I have NO SOUND through the optical out into my DVD/Surround sound system.
The engineer set it all up and showed how it works to my girlfriend, with the sound coming through the TVs speakers. I came home as he was leaving and found the surround sound doesnt work.
I have an Xbox and Bluray player connected to a switcher along with the sky box which the goes in to the back of the surround sound system.
My Sky+ system was set up in the exact same way as the new HD except for the HDMI cable replacing the Scart connection to the TV. The sound for the + box was the same cable being used for the HD ... which worked this morning.
Ive tried connecting directly to the surround sound with the optical cable and tried one of the other cables but nothing works .... even though the red light is coming through the cable.
Anyone have a clue ???
Ive call the engineer and he might be able to come back tomorrow !!
Cheers J
