I need some help with properly hooking up my home theater system. I just got HD Direct TV so I want to hook all this up the right way.
Right now I have a HDMI cable going from my cable box to the TV. My box says it is DD capable, and so is my TV. It has a DD in and out slot. So if I am watching TV for instance and the movie is broadcasting in DD do I also in addition to the HDMI cable need a Digital Coax cable going from the cable box into the TV? Or can I just run a Digital Coax cable from my cable box into my Onkyo HT receiver? Or do I need to go from my cable box to the TV, then from the TV to the HT receiver? Which is of course DD by the way, I have it setup to run 2.1 DD fyi.
Just wondering how to set this up right to get true 2.1 DD with the least amount of cables necessary.
Thanks,
Will
