It is a LG home theater purchased almost 13 years ago, it was a pricey flagship series back in those days which has 5.1 Dolby/DTS audio. I never used it to full potential because of compatibility issues with regional DVD back then before this Internet era and i used to be that kid without much exposure to tech. Currently, I'm hesitating to invest in any new home theater as I'll be relocating to different country probably very soon. So i need some options to incarnate my old setup for the time being.
Tech available-
5 speakers (2 front main speakers obviously)
1 LG advanced DVD player cum amplifier which came with HT setup
1 Pagaria DVD player (added by me few years back because incompatibility of DVDs in home)
Sony TV - 4 HDMI ARC ports, NO optical port
MI TV 4 - 3 HDMI ARC ports, 1 co ax port
Laptops obviously
Most depressing thing in this LG home theater setup is lack of optical IN port for amplifier to connect any external device like TV to Home theater
It has as an Optical OUT port.... *Who would keep a Optical OUT port for home theater(RIP LG)
It has AUX IN for front 2 speakers, currently i'm using just there front 2 speakers in stereo because lack of digital connectivity in this model
Pagaria DVD player is a 2.0 channel amplifier (Just in case for info)
So what are my options now ?? How can i use those 5 speakers and LG amplifier
U can suggest any low cost basic upgrades because it is just temporary setup for few months
