Dear all, This is my first post. I have a new Sony Bravia 32" LCD TV (T series) and an old 5.1 speaker set (can be connected to analogue audio out jacks only). I plan to buy a DVD player that can upscale the signal to 720p via HDMI cable. At the same time, I wish to get the sound output through the 5.1 speakers.
I have found that Samsung HD DVD player 1080K has both HDMI output and 5.1 analogue audio out jacks. If I connect this DVD player to my TV through HDMI and to 5.1 speakers though analogue jacks, do you think I would be able to hear the sound through speakers.
I am apprehensive because I read that HDMI carries both video and audio through it --- if so, whether analogue speakers will get audio signal in such situation?
Is there any other option of hooking these three that I don't know.
Thanks.
