TV to Reciever

[krazybrat]

I have a VU TV for which I want to connect to my Onkyo receiver - However, my Onkyo receiver doesn't have HDMI + both the Optical slots are not working in the receiver. How can I still export sound from VU TV to my home theatre? Or should I buy any other device to mediate the connection?

perhaps something like this. Not an endorsement, example only, shop around.

a cable will not work, you will need a converter to switch from digital to the analogue the onkyo needs

Did you turn the optical output on in the TV menu. You may have to turn the TV speakers off too.
An optical input (optical 1 for example) on the receiver may have to be assigned to an input name (video 2 for example) in the receiver input menu.
