Hook 60 inch Samsung tv (NO AUDIO OUTPUTS) to old home theater system (NO HDMI inputs or outputs)

I bought a 60inch Samsung HDTV. It has no outputs for audio. Only inputs (components, usb, & 2 hdmi) I have an old receiver from JVC probably from the 90s it's a home theater system. It has no hdmi. Just AV hookups. What do I do?

You bought the wrong TV. If audio output was important, you should have chosen a model with the ports you wanted.

I fixed the problem. Now I have sound through my theater sound system. I went through my PS3 and bypassed my tv.

If you want audio from other sources then your TV optical audio output should work. If the JVC only has analog RCA inputs you will need an optical to analog audio converter.

I was able to fix by using my old Ps3 av cable. From ps3 to home theater for sound and use the hdmi to the back of the tv.
