So my parents recently got a new TV (Sony 46" HDTV LCD XBR2) and it's awesome. So since it has a built in tuner, there's no reason to subscribe to Comcast's HDTV service (I don't need their box).
Speakers are hooked up to the receiver, so how we used to get surround soudn when watchign TV (like football games and stuff) is you switch on the VCR and so we could hear sound from both our TV and surround system. However, now with this TV (or maybe just HDTV) the audio is not 100% synced. The VCR has an old tuner so obviously we only get analog channels, and I guess the audio is slightly off? We get an interesting echo effect.
I want to know how to hook things up so I can get surround sound from my speakers...
Another thing is the guy from BB told us to get some component cables so we can directly connect our DVD player into our TV and get better image quality... but once again, what about sound? That's why everything goes through the receiver ATM.
