Have new 60" 3D Samsung Smart UN60H6400 TV and Yamaha RX-v377 receiver currently hooked to four high quality speakers. Additional speakers will be added soon. It is set up so cable box feeds receiver thru HDMI cable, with another HDMI cable feeding the TV from the receiver. Radio, TV broadcasts and DVD player with HDMI cables to receiver direct audio to the speaker system with excellent sound.
Just starting to explore wireless internet reception for movies, but find the audio from internet sites comes only from the TV stereo speakers. I want all audio to feed the multi channel receiver. I must be brain clogged today as have not comprehended the wiring required to do this.
Is this a simple matter of adding an optical digital 'out' from the TV to the optical digital 'in' of the receiver, thus having two audio feeds to the receiver? Or is turning off the TV speakers at a menu likely to redirect the audio signal back thru the HDMI cable?
Or more complicated that that... seems it should not be complicated, but tonight my brain is not in gear. Assistance much appreciated.
