For Panasonic TV optical out if I connect to Bose theater it works, but connecting to Panlong converter all I get is a fast pulsing sound. Any ideas?

The pulsing sound could be digital audio that is not being decoded correctly. You could try checking that the output isn't 7.1, which I don't think the device supports. It's also possible your decoder just doesn't work. Mine works great, but quality control isn't great with these Chinese devices.

I have not done anything as of yet. I will call Panasonic tech support and see what they have to say. My guess is it doesn't really matter whether you install it on your Panasonic HDTV or your Panasonic Blu-Ray Player. You still get the same results. But, I could be wrong.

If you have a single (yellow) digital audio (SPDIF) "out" jack on the TV, that is specifically for a digital audio "in" jack on another component. Pretty much every TV also has red and white audio out jacks. Those are what you connect to the sound bar. Alternatively, many TVs have an optical (Toslink) jack for audio out. I believe that your sound bar has one too. That would be preferable. AmazonBasics Digital Optical Audio Toslink Cable - 6 Feet (1.8 Meters)

No, I doubt the USB port on the digital to analog converter outputs audio at all, or even functions as a USB host. You can still use a 1/8" phone connector between the front left/right jack on the converter to the input jack on the Bose control pod and configure the converter in 2ch mode. If you must use the USB connector for the Bose to get audio from the TV, I do not think this is possible.

I have mine plugged into my Sony Soundbar subwoofer. That is where the inputs go to my bedroom tv.When I use it with a Bose system in the tv room, it plugs into the tv and the sound goes to my audio system because I have the tv set to outside speakers. Neither of my speaker systems are bluetooth. If your projector is connected to speakers via bluetooth, and the Rikomagic is plugged into the projector, that may work.

Wow, bless your heart. I spent hours on the phone with Sony and Panasonic only to be spinning my wheels. Ended up returning my soundbar. Perhaps Radio Shack might be able to help you out. Sorry, I'm not much help. I wish you well.

Jim, i have this unit and hdmi is finicky so i couldn't get it to work. So no big loss. Instead, use fiber optic audio output of tv to feed optical input of soundbar and all will be good. Regards, Greg

I would like this answer also. I hooked my up to a toslink convertor an no sound came out of the sound bar. Any help?

I had the same situation with the same TV. You will need to buy a optical audio cable, optical audio to Analog RCA converter box and a RCA Cable. (Left(white)Right(red). Plug one end of your optical fiber cable into the TV the other end in the converter box. Then plug one end of your RCA cable in the convertor box and the other end in your RCA input. You will also need a outlet to power the convertor box.

It worked for me using the optical TV source converting it into simple RCA analog left & right cables. -- Wish I could give your mine, having sold my all but this :-)

I just did that very thing. My Samsung Home Theater is also HDMI 1.4 ready so I hooked it up with just the main output from the Panasonic and everything worked just fine, but I keep reading that it's still better to use two cables with the video turned off the (Sub) output. My TV is a LG 3D LED Smarty but it has only one HDMIARC input so I naturally I put the main Panasonics output there. I put the out put from my A/V machine to the HDMI2 hole. That should do it. I haven't tried it yet. I have a brand new copy of "Johnny Depp's Alice in wonderland". I'll let you know how it works.

This is for connecting multiple INPUTS to one reciever or one output to multiple receivers. So if your Bose has optical input and your Cable box has optical output this can help. But this product has a lot of issues with reliablilty.

The headset stand has an optical (digital) input and my Panasonic plasma TV has an optical audio output. Simply connecting one to the other allows the headset audio to operated totally independently from the TV audio. Depending on the distance from the TV to the headset stand you may need to order a toslink optical cable.

Mike, If your Bose speakers do not have a Toslink connector part no. 27015 will not work. Most new TV's and high quality speakers include a toshlink connection. I suggest calling Bose and confirm which cable you need. My best guess without knowing your Bose part no. would be you an audio cable like the C2G part no. 40411.

Yes it has an optical out using the same jack/header as the "line in" jack/header...a supplied insulator insulates the "line in" terminals and sees the "Toslink" transmitter behind it. The "line in" and the "Toslink" cannot be used simultaneosly. Is not a problem, I use the "front out" to source a Klipsch desktop 5.1 system for monitoring. The "Front out" is coax wth "PCM" and some other options. Great little card...I do not drive speakers through it...only use it as a source.

Actually I'm using the optical audio output from my Sony tv to the optical input of the sound bar...not sure why it wouldn't work when using the red/white output from your tv into the soundbar...all I did was hook it up and turn my TV speaker off...make sure the blue light is lit up on the soundbar when powered up...

Sounds like what you need. My application required going from the orange RCA coax type on the TV and converting to the fiber optic type on the soundbar. It all works fine, but the converter does not come with either the coax cable or the fiber optic cable.
