LG Internal DVD Drive
Problem for LG (GDR8164B) Internal DVD Drive

Can not use the 5.1 surround sound system




By w g hyde on Aug 12, 2008

" "
I have a brand new LG DVD model HT503TH and a Acoustic Solutions TV Model LCD40F1080P and I can get them to play though the 5.1 system. They are connected via a HMDI connection. When playing a DVD the sound comes through the 3 TV speakers and my front 2 speakers of my setup. When playing TV programmes only the 3 TV speakers are working. The DVD plays radio thru my front speakers OK. All speakers and the subwoofer are working on the DVD setup test. The only hope I have a present is to try thru the opical connection but I don't have a optical connection on my tele. Can anyone help

stupid question, but you do have an optical lead connected? the hdmi will only produce stereo sound, you must also have an optical lead (aka tos link cable) connected to produce 5.1
