I am new to this stuff, I just bought a panasonic surround sound, dvd works fine, but tv nor xbox will work through surround sound? When I try to use the surround sound with the tv I just hear buzz throught the speakers. Also, when I have my xbox hooked up to one video in on the tv, my dvd from the surround sound will not work unless I unplug the xbox video in. My Tv is sylvania
Yes, I read the manual, it told me that I should lower the volume on my tv all the way down and then turn up the volume on the receiver to the surround sound. It is connected by the video out on the receiver to the video in on the tv, like it told me too.
Unfortunately, if you have no audio outputs on yuor TV you will not be able to hear your TV through your HT. If you have a VCR, then you can use its audio output to connect to your HT. If you have a cable box that comes with audio outputs, you can use that.
As far as your xbox is concerned you need to use its audio output by using the supplied audio cables to connect to your HT.
