Hi .. need to connect my tv audio through my pioneer 5.1 home theater.I was using normal video audio cable ...shall i use component cable???pls advice

Check the input selector on the TV, if you have audio only then it is a cable problem,
that means that cables are not connected in the right way.

I am glad to assist you fully. I need the complete model of the TV and i will be able to tell you exactly how to hook it up. What connection/cable are you using from the cable box?
Thanks,
Lee

use rca red and white to connect to input on home theater,plug other end into tv output,now go into tv settings and find speakers and turn on external speakers,connect hdmi from home theater to tv input,you cannot record tv stations.

This is an older home theater package and only has component video out for HD and RCA or SPDIF optical out for audio. You'll need to locate the component video input on the back of your flat panel and connect it to the component output of the Phillips unit. Component cables have 3 RCA cable (Red, Blue, Green) for HD. You can use a RED/WHITE RCA cable for audio but if you have a SPDIF Optical cable you should use that for better sound. The TV should have that as an input also. You will need to go into the Menu for the TV and select component video and SPDIF optical if you went that route for audio.

gerardali,The question is what input connection do you have on your TV?

Your Venturer has three types of video outputs:
1) Composite video (single yellow RCA)
2) S-video (single 5 pin cable)
3) Component (3 cables-red, green & blue RCA's).

The component will give the best picture but not all TV's have this connection. The second best is the s-Video but again not all TV's have this connection either. The composite is the lowest quality and the most common available connection.

Make sure that you are using the same audio and video inputs on your TV; such as, if your audio is going in AUX 2, make sure your video connection of choice is going into AUX 2 also.

Hi,
You have connected from PC to TV right???
1.To get the video you have to connect to TV
2.Please take a separate cables for to listen audio and to watch video,
for audio connect cables from DVD Player to Home Theater you can listen the audio
for video please connect the HDMI video to TV Where You can enjoy both.

Not certain if HDMI can be used in a setup like this. I'd try it from the home theater (HT) to the TV, and other wiring for the other components.

For video:
All of these should have component connections (Y/Pr/Pb). You'll only need the video cables for each device:

• Video out from cable, HT, and combo player.
  
• Video in to TV. Your choice of inputs.

For audio:
Hopefully, the two output devices (the combo player and the cable box) have digital audio (fiber optic, or RCA coaxial). Otherwise, you'll only get stereo sound. VHS is stereo only anyway.

• Audio out from cable box and combo player.
• Audio in to HT.

The TV won't have anything to do with audio in this setup. Alternatively, you could try hooking up all inputs to the TV, and connecting audio out from the TV to the HT. Works best if this connection is digital, for surround.

For connections of audio, so that you can hear all tv audio through the
surround system, connect either an optical audio cable or red & white
analog audio cables from the tv to the home theater. If you are using
optical audio, there is a plug on back of tv labeled for digital audio
output and an input on the surround sound system. If you plan on using
analog red and white, use the PROG OUT red and white output jacks on the
back of the tv to the AUX input on the home theater.

For video connections, to get HD you will need to be using either HDMI or
Component cables. HDMI is the cable that will provided 1080p signal (the
best HD signal), but if the source does not output 1080p, then your tv
will not display 1080p. Most cable boxes output at 1080i or 720p when on
HD stations. This signal still provides great picture quality, but HDMI is
not needed to get these HD signals. You can use component cables for your
cable box and the DVD player output to the tv for video. HDMI might give
you a slightly better picture quality but the signal will be the same.

To make the connection, you will want to connect from the cable box to the
tv (component or hdmi). Also from the home theater system to the tv using
hdmi or the video cables from component (red, blue, & green cables).

We hope this information is helpful to you.

Don't worry about sending the TV audio to the Panasonic. Just send a digital audio signal from the cable box to the Panasonic.

DVD - Panasonic connected via HDMI
TV - Panasonic connected via HDI
cable connected to cable box and TV. But you will not really be using the cable connection to the TV (TV Tuner) since you will want HD feed from cable box through HDMI input on TV.

You aren't concerned about feeding the TV speakers because your audio will always come from the home theatre.

Note that some components don't feed audio through HDMI, in which case you will need to use optical digital audio.
