i have 2 doubts exactly
first one is
i have heard that tv's transmit only stereo through optical out (not 5.1 even if the source is 5.1 example hd set top box)
how true is that and if its true is it the case with all the tv's or only a few models
and the second one is
can we control the volume of sound system connected to a tv through optical out with the tv remote?
what i have in mind is to setup my drawing room with a 42" tv with logitech z-5500 and then connect my dvd player, set top box, and media player to the tv through hdmi and route the sound through optical out to z-5500
thnks in advance
