To get digital audio from the component
For a component that is already connected to the media center, you can make a digital audio connection too.
For this higher quality audio, you need a digital audio cable that works with your component. Such cables are available at most electronics stores.
1.Identify the digital connector on your component as either an Optical or Coaxial connector.
Coaxial
Optical
2. Be sure to use the right cable for this connector.
Optical OR Coaxial
3.Connect one end of your digital cable to the digital AUDIO OUT connector on your component.
Be sure to keep the red and white audio cable connected. This allows you to hear the audio if the program audio is not digital or the digital signal is interrupted.
4.Locate the appropriate digital AUDIO IN connector, labeled D, on the system media center.
You can make:
•up to 3 coaxial connections
•up to 2 coaxial and one optical connection
Note: If your component has an Optical and a Coaxial connector, use either one but not both.
Note: The media center Optical connector is factory set to work with a cable or satellite box. If your Optical component is neither of those, you need to select your component in an on-screen System menu. See “Getting digital audio from a source” on page 45.

To use video pass through
This calls for another composite cable or two S-Video cables, which are available at most electronics stores.
You can make a pass through connection if:
•You have a Composite or S-Video connection between the TV and the media center (not HDMI or Component).
AND:
•You want to connect another video component through the media center to the TV.
Be sure to use one matched pair as shown here:
Video in from |

to your TV |
DO NOT use either of the two ONLY PASS-THROUGH connectors (on the left) if you have made an HDMI or Component connection VIDEO OUT TO TV.

If:
•Your cable box does not provide red and white AUDIO OUT connectors.
•You watch TV programs without using a cable or satellite box.
•You connect a video camera or game console to your TV.
If none of the above apply, continue with 7 on page 25.
Note: If you have already connected the audio
