TV's RCA audio output - Blu-ray Forum

cakefoo · 12-17-2007, 03:46 PM

My parents' TV has a stereo RCA out, and my question is, will the tv output audio through those RCA's even if the source going into the tv is from, say, HDMI from my PS3?

Thanks in advance

If your talking about a TV that has an HDMI input, and AV composite output, yes the output will work even with an HDMI input signal. But you will only get stereo and SD.

why would you output the audio from the tv via RCA?

(does it not have an optical out? most HDMI tvs do)

Sweet, that's good to know. Thanks for the quick reply

It does have optical out, but a simple 2.1 setup for computers is going to be sufficient for my parents- if the reviews I've read are accurate, they're probably going to s*** their pants when they hear these speakers.
