I have became confused by cables, can someone help?
Current set-up: PS3 - TV - via HDMI
Surround sound system - TV - via optical
Bemusement: I was under the impression that the PS3 had to be linked to the sound system, by optical, in order for me to take advantage of 5.1 sound. However, i selected the sound output as HDMI on my PS3 and turned on the 5.1 and it works.
Is there anything wrong with my current set-up?
