Optical leads have a red light that shows even when unplugged. If that is not on the socket is switched off.

Testimonial: "Hi the red light is on mate thanks"

    It might be on, but are the sound settings correct for all your devices. Will they pass the signals to your Sound Bar? I assume the Sound Bar is connected to the TV via the optical. So is the TV's settings correct?

If there is no sound from your player, you can check the following things:
1. Blu-ray player audio settings
2. HDMI cable connection error
3. Incompatibility between your Blu-ray player and TV
4. Blu-ray discs damage or restriction.

SOURCE: HDMI SOUND

True HD can only work with HDMI interface and is only available on some newer HD DVDs. Check the DVD to see if the True HD encoding is available.

SOURCE: Need help hooking up TV, BluRay, Home Theatre & cable box

I found that since the Panasonic TH50PZ80U TV has only 2 HDMI ports on the back of the TV, the best solution for me was to use component (red, blue, green) cables to connect the Home Theatre to the TV. I suppose I/you could connect the home theatre to the HDMI port on the front panel, but I don't want cables hanging out the front of the TV (personal preference). Unfortunately, I am no longer able to use the VIERA Link functionality available by connecting all Panasonic components to each other using HDMI cables, but I feel it's a small price to pay for the incredible picture quality acheived by using the HDMI cable to connect the HD Cable Box to the TV. I may yet be able to control everything using the HD Cable Box remote, but I haven't gotten that far yet but I've got Comcast coming on Saturday and hopefully they can let me know if this is possible: let me know if you have a solution.

So here are the components and the cable types used to connect:

  1. HD Cable Box to TV: HDMI cable & Optical Audio cable
  2. Home Theatre to TV: Red, Blue & Green component cables
  3. BluRay Player to TV: HDMI cable
I hope this helps someone else.

SOURCE: I have an audio problem with my TX-SR502.

If your remote also controls the Cable Box you might want to look at its audio settings. Maybe you muted it.

BTW: it would be a good idea to also run video and analog audio from the cable box directly to the TV if it has speakers so you can watch and listen independent of the Onkyo.

SOURCE: I have an LG TV

Hello,
There are two things that I can suggest.
1-Test your optical cables to make sure they a good on a known working source because they are very fragile and break very easily.
2-Try to eliminate the use of optical output from tv to receiver. There may be a problem from the HDMI to optical conversion at the tv. Instead, try running the audio directly from the source to the receiver, and let the tv deal with video input only.
Hope this helps,
Good Luck.

How to connect my hdtv to surround for audio

It looks like from my searching you have an optical link on your tv and your reciver. You should just have to choose that as your output on the tv and your input on the reciver. It should be labled something like spdif. In my opinion it is the best cable ever until hdmi came out now its still really good.

How do I connect a sound bar to my Panasonic TX-50A300B I want to use an optical cable as ear phone jack does not produce a decent level

If your TV has an optical port on the back, you simply get an optical cable long enough to connect the two. On your TV sound setup screen you'll have to select optical out so the sound from the TV will be switched from the RCA jacks to the optical out port.

How do I connect a Panasonic TX-50A300B (TV) to a Panasonic SC-HTB20 Home Audio System?

The audio system sports both a HDMI input AND an Optical input - one can use either. The TV has both of those as outputs so you truly can use either!
You'll need a HDMI to HDMI cable or an Optical to optical TOSlink cable.
