Hooking up a surround home theatre system

Sep 11, 2006 7 Replies

Hi ,



I have a yamaha YHT170S home theatre system and I was wondering if it is possible to hook basic tv upto it. I have already got my DVD,VCR and even turntable running through it but can't get the TV to come through.I don't have a cable box i just receive the basic channles everyone gets here in Toronto



Thanks RJ



You need a TV with audio out jacks.

What does this have to do with design? It belongs on one of the TV related newsgroups.

If you look closely at the original post, which I just did, there's no question there. So it would seem to be a statement, not a question.

So obviously, the guy is saying that if things were properly designed, it wouldn't be so hard for him to hook it up.

So he posted here to influence designers in that quest of his?

Seriously, like too many posts here, it doesn't belong.

it's a closer hit than middle east policy and whatnot that also goes here.

there's audio out in the scart connector,

Why doen't someone make tv where you can to turn of the internal speakers and have the line level audio out _after_ the volume control? I usually end up using the headphone output, so I don't have to use one remote for the TV and another for the volume

Scart? Not in this part of the world.

You'll need a SCART to audio cable.

Some US ones have both.

Yeah, it's a bitch.
