I would say yes, I've used this on my xbox, ps3 and ps4 I dont see any problem with it of your tv had optical out.

The only use for the optical out that I can see is to send stereo sound to an amp or receiver. Its just a different medium than using the stereo white/red rca connectors. Any sound that comes into the tv, basically standard coaxial cable, would be output to the receiver.To me this is pointless because if you have a receiver to begin with, just hook the video signals to the tv and the audio signals to the receiver. Just use the tv as a monitor.The PS3 might have a setting in the unit to enable sound through optical out.

Not easily. Like others have said if your TV has an output it will be RCA. You can get a cable to make it work. But your TV may not even have audio out. In fact, most don't.

No but there is a solution.The audio output is via stereo jack or the hdmi. What I did to have 5.1surround through a n optical cable was to connect the hdmi audio/video out to an hdmi / sprig (optical) splitter. You get as an output the hdmi signal + optical audio. I am using the viewHD splitter and it works perfectly

Yes, you can, this item is coaxial (orange) in, to optical (black/white) out.

Yes, I have it directly connected to our cable box. You should be able to use either an optical cable or the receivers audio outputs.

This has no optical input. You need a splitter from the AV outputs to these speakers. They are RCA.

Keep in mind that if you are wanting your tv to output sound to a surround sound system. You can use the optical (toslink) output of tv to a surround sound system.

Awesome, thanks. So I guess running my PC into the TV first then just using the universal optical out from the TV to the soundbar would be optimal anyway.

Yes, it will convert the digital output from your TV to optical output. If your receiver accepts optical input, you have it made.

Unfortunately I can give you no answer regarding this question. I am using the HDMI inputs/outputs. My unit has 4 HDMI in and 2 HDMI out. I do not recall my unit having optical outputs.

I don't see why not. I have it hooked up to the optical output from my TV and it works fine.

I have the 65 inch tv and it has the optical audio out..thats the one I use to connect to my home theater system

No you cannot. This unit allows you to connect a digital INPUT signal (optical or coaxial (orange rca)) to the box and OUTPUT analog audio signal on the red and white rca connectors. It does not output on the optical port.

You can't. There's only one analog input and the optical option from the tv

Yes i have my led tv connected to the optical in source. There is also a sub woofer out port for a powered sub woofer which i also use. And there is a audio in port that accepts a 3.5 mm stereo jack for a tv or mp3 etc.

You would have to connect through your television or blue tooth device with an optical out connection.
