I'm having trouble connecting the two I've tried using both HDMI and audio/video cables. No luck yet
 
Solution
So, for TV programme you're limited to Stereo (if you connect TV' audio out to the receiver). Move Roku to the receiver' HDMI, and you should get surround in Netflix and others

The tv does have arc however the reciever only has an hdmi in/out so I put one end in the tv's arc and the receiver in the in part of the hdmi. I also set the receiver to the HDMI in for the source option, still nothing

So for the jvc reciever it should be correct the way I have it hooked up(tv-arc hdmi port) (reciever-hdmi IN) with the source being HDMI in for the receiver?

It should go cable box hdmi out to jvc hdmi in, then jvc hdmi out to the tv hdmi in. Nothing out from the tv. If you have more than 1 hdmi device that needs to get to the tv and you want to hear the sound out of the jvc you need an hdmi switch.
