The AVR 235 only has two optical inputs. I'm already using those with my Xbox 360 and my DVR. I just got a Blu Ray player for Christmas. But, I don't have a way to get digital 5.1 audio from it to the receiver, because the optical inputs are already used.
I tried sending audio through HDMI to the TV and optical out from the TV to the receiver. But, that the TV will only output a stereo siginal, not 5.1.
Is the only solution to upgrade my receiver to one with more than two 5.1 inputs? Am I wrong that the two optical inputs on the AVR 235 are the only 5.1 inputs?
