How can I connect my apple TV to my surround sound system without running any extra cables?

I have my Apple TV connected to my TV via HDMI. The TV is connected to an auxiliary box that outputs sound to house speakers. I don't want to run any additional wires because of the distance to my auxiliary box and the fact all my wires now run through the wall. Also the auxiliary box lacks any extra HDMI ports.
On cable, the TV sound plays surround sound, but on the Apple TV sound plays from the TV itself.
Is there any way to alter settings on the TV (LG LB6100 Smart TV) to change the sound source?

if you have a router and set it up for wifi and have ethernet plugged in then point your iPhone to that router and it will connect to the ATV.

  • Dear Community, how can I connect SCSI tape recorder via USB to iMac ? Is there any adapter/converter on the market now ? Cheers, Marek

    Dear Community,
    how can I connect SCSI tape recorder via USB to iMac ?
    Is there any adapter/converter on the market now ?
    Cheers, Marek

    Thanks Jan.
    Actually the reason to use Quantum SCSI tape recorder is to back-up big amount of data (propriety movies footage) both on PC (what is quite easy, using SCSII host adapter with VHDCI 68 connector) and iMac what seems to be not easy. All my search by Google leads to that conclussion, they finished production of SCSI-to-USB or FireWire because somebody stopped to produce chips to covert protocols. So even buying noe second-hand adapter, no guaranty it's still working with Lion (nobody is developing drivers anymore). Strange is, nobody or just a few are using SCSII (Ultra 320) devices (while the transfer is not bad, 320 MBps what is 2560 Mbps, so the only limitation is tape recording (some 80 MBps) not an interface. Using compression mode I can (and I do) record 1,6 TB of footage data. However quite slow, is safe and cheap, comparing with any HD storage solution. USB 2 is much more limited.
    I'm using Time Capsule for buck-up. But even 3 TB one day will be full of data, then old back-ups will be eaten by new once, what is not good idea for archives. I'm using another 2TB NAS HD (2x2TB RAID 1), but this is also going to be full soon.
    Of course, you are right, the option is another machine (OSX,Win,Linux or Solaris) equipped with SCSII controller. But this requires another machine, just for back-up time to time, and in practice iMac folders must be shared with that small auxiliary machine because amount of data practically excluding even temporary data collection on auxiliary machine. And it must be transfer by wire, not WIFI, my only network. Tape recording is in my case really good, professional solution, isn't it?
    Anyway, if somebody has similar requirements as me, and found the solution for SCSI, please let me know. So far, follow Jan's idea, I'm thinking about some embeded mini PC, fanless, equipped with slot for SCSI, with SOME smart system on-board, to deal with iMac for type recording. The option is previous Apple model, but to be honest, I became Mac/OSX user 4 years ago. I fell in love with Mac, but my knowledge about previous models is based on Google....
    My desk becomes full of boxes. Do you know how big Quantum TC-L42BX is ? Is very big. And now another box.....another keyboard....another screen... And one small adapter could solve the problem. Eh....
    Best regards,
    Marek

    Can I hook up my apple tv to my surround sound system, but keep my regular tv hooked up to the surround sound as well?

    If your audio amplifier has multiple hdmi imputs, you can connect the apple tv to one and the tv to another.
    Works well for me, and now I can mirror itunes to get the new itunes radio on the music system, and have the tv system also work.

    It is not possible to delete an apple id completely. You can only delete information like credit card, adress, name... To do this, go to iTunes Store, click on your email adress in the upper right corner and enter your password. Now you can manage your account.
    An apple id without password is not possible.

    I have an older flat panel HDTV with only 1 HDMI connection which is being used through my cable box for TV reception.  I also use a Bose 3.2.1. GS Series II home theatre system.  It has no HDMI inputs. Can I use an Apple TV with my present system?  I'd prefer not hearing, "buy a new flat panel."

    Have you tried adjusting the "Audio Out" and the "Dolby Digital" settings in settings > audio and video? It may be worth trying several combinations of these settings, although typically it is the "Dolby Digital" setting that causes most problems for users.

  • Can I connect my iPod to my stero surround sound?

    Can someone tell me how to connect my iPod to my stero surround system if it's possible. Do I need to buy a cable, if so, what?

    Can someone tell me how to connect my iPod to my stero surround system if it's possible.
    The 5G iPod can be connected directly to any standard A/V component (e.g., video amplifier, TV, monitor, etc.) which employs RCA connectors (composite video and stereo audio). You can use the iPod AV Cable (Part # M9765G/A) which plugs into the iPod earphone jack on one end and to you RCA connectors on the other. Similar cables often come with camcorders or can be purchased from Radio Shack or other outlets. However, be advised that while the Apple cable RCA connectors are correctly color coded for US stereos (i.e., Y-video, R-Rt audio, W-Lt audio), the jack end on the iPod is re-wired differently when used with non-Apple cables. In this case use R-video, Y-rt audio, and W-Lt audio. In addition, if you have the iPod Universal Dock, you can use either the above named iPod AV Cable (or similar cable) or an S-Video cable in conjunction with the audio lines from the AV cable. The advantage here is the ability to leave the base connected to your entertainment system and simply plug in the iPod when you wish to use it with your system. And, if you have a USB Power Adapter, you can even charge the iPod while using it with your system.

  • Can I connect imac to HDMI and also Surround sound also through HDMI using the thunderbolt sockets via an adaptor into a HDMI?

    I want to be able to connect my imac to my TV and Surround Sound, from what I have read the best want of doing this is both via HDMI. Before I go out and buy another adaptor for a second thunderbolt to HDMI I was wondering if this would work? I basically I want to be able to stream videos from Imac to TV with sound coming through surround sound and also when I am on itunes have the music come through the surround sound. At the moment I have an adaptor (thunderbolt to HDMI) which goes into the TV and a optical cable from TV into the surround sound, then I also have a 3.5mm from the imac to the Surround sound, but I find this lacks in quailty. Would upgrading to a HDMI work and be better ? Should I also look into an optical cable though I dont see how to connect this to the imac?

    OK. From what I can tell here, the Sony HT-SF2000 has 3 HDMI inputs & one HDMI output, so the simplest hookup would be to connect the iMac to one of the the Sony's HDMI inputs via the Thunderbolt-HDMI adaptor, & connect the Sony's HDMI output to the TV's HDMI input.
    Use the Sony like an HDMI input selector for the TV (plugging in your other HDMI devices, if any, to it). Use the HDMI input on it from the iMac for both movie & iTunes sound output, & for TV output for video. (You can even use the TV as a second screen for the iMac.)
    If for some reason you want a separate input for the iMac's sound output, you can use the optical input on the Sony for that, with a TOSLINK cable connection to the iMac. You will need either a Mini-TOSLINK adaptor or a TOSLINK to mini-TOSLINK cable to connect to the audio output of the iMac.

  • Connecting my Macbook (Alu) to my surround sound system in the lounge?

    I really enjoy listening to Spotify, and I have a 6 speak surround system in my lounge.
    Is there a way to combine the two?
    My surround only has Scart and 'coaxial'? inputs.
    My TV has yellow red and white sockets.
    Anything I can do?
    Seems a shame to waste the surround sound - when life could be so good

    You can get multi-channel audio out of the MacBook using the optical audio output that is accessed through the same port as the standard 3.5mm analog audio out (i.e. the headphone output). However, the only software that Apple provides that outputs multi-channel audio is the DVD Player.
    Digital optical to coax converters are available so to access the optical output you'd need a 3.5mm to TOSLINK adapter (cheap about $2 USD), an optical cable, an optical to coax converter (relatively inexpensive), and a section of coax cable.
    Remember, however, that you'll only get multi-channel output when using Apple's DVD Player application with DVDs that contain multi-channel audio.
