Hey guys
I just ordered a Samsung HT-X810 (2.1 powered speaker bar) and have a question about how to best hook this up to my system.
I have a 52" Samsung 650 series, and a Samsung BD player. I also have HD cable, and AppleTV. I have no receiver.
So, my BD player, HD cable, and AppleTV are all run separately via HDMI to my Samsung 650 series TV.
I was thinking to run the audio from the TV's optical output into the Samsung HT-X810. Will this work properly? Will the TV transmit the "5.1" signal from the bluray to the speaker bar? I'm hoping this way will work, so that I can always leave the speaker bar on the same "input" and it will just automatically be playing whatever is on the TV.
Thank you kindly
Aychamo
