Let it be. How're you?

You will need the Audio input to come from your tv to the surround system (path= Satellite Receiver >Television>Surround System)

Try whatever applies best below, in order...

Cable Box optical Digital Audio to Digital Audio In. (This brings TV-related multi-channel and normal audio into the receiver so you can hear it over the speakers. Turn TV volume OFF.

The cable box probably has a pair of stereo Audio Out RCA jacks. Run those directly to the TV so you can watch and hear cable programming over the TV's speakers without having to turn the system on. Turn TV volume UP.

Depending on your TV's Video In capabilities, use the Cable Box HDMI, Component (Red, Blue and Green), or Composite Video (single Yellow associated with the Audio Out) directly attached to the TV.

That is the Digital range of channels, since it is digital you will not need a converter box for this model. Their is also an Analog range of channels which is the primary setting, You will need the factory remote to switch from Analog to Digital... Without that remote you might have a problem their isnt a way to switch within the menu settings, good luck!!!

Unfortunately, any response from RCA on this is not forthcoming as i have been waiting for some months from whichever support group is in place now....What I did do however, as I too wanted to utilize the Optical input for my Blueray player was purchase a Logitech harmony universal remote (or you can borrow one from someone) and setup a new device on the remote with similar function keys. I setup a new device RCA RTD316W which also has a "inputDigital" button. Once this was loaded on the Remote I was able to switch the SAT option on the RTDVD1.
