Title: New guy with some hook-up questions...
Post by: shovel on December 16, 2001, 11:28:45 PM

First Id like to say that this seems like a great board! Now to my question, My TV doesnt have component abilities but, it has an S-video. I know there is a harness that would work for that but my problem is that my Reciever has the digital/component abilities and that is how im hooking up the surround sound. What I would like to do is use the svideo on my tv and the digital sound w/my reciever. How would I do this? Is it possible?

1st off, welcome to the forums!!

AAs for digital sound, just use the opitical out on the ps2 to the receiver.

Thanks! So then do I not use the audio patch cords? Or should I plug them into the tv, AND use the digital w/the reciever?

Thank you for the welcome, I didnt know there were boards like this for video games. I guess i spent too much time at my car board. :)
