Does the TV have audio out jacks? Does the new player have audio in jacks? If yes on both accounts, connect the TV's audio out to the player's audio in.
(Alright, i literally created the account here to ask this question, so sorry if i went about this wrong...)
Alright, so i have a Mitsubishi DLP 1080p 60" tv, i didnt have speakers, so i bought a blue ray player, that came with a home theater setup, so i plugged in the blu ray player, and the speakers, and they sound sooooo good, but i am not sure why my TV won't use those speakers, i tried going to my tv's main menu, but the audio part has nothing to do with using external speakers...
Please help...
