Hi all,
Just got a new HD tv and I'm a bit confused with how to set it up.
So basically, I have a Samsung HDTV and Samsung Soundbar ... and would like to connect my cable box, Bluray player (when I get one), Wii, and occasionally my laptop.
The problem is that the TV only has 2 HDMI ports and the soundbar only has 1 HDMI in port, so I can't connect all of my devices with HDMI
Ideally, I would like to use all the devices through the soundbar but it doesn't seem that it will happen that way.
Anyways my questions are
1) If I plug a toslink Audio cable from my TV to the soundbar, will all sound go to the soundbar? (ex: Wii is plugged into tv via Rwy (red,white,yellow) cables or cable box into tv via HDMI ... sound will always come through?)
2) Is there any sound quality differences between using toslink, HDMI, and the white/yellow to 3.5 mm cables?
