I have a ~20 year old 5.1 surround sound system buried in the back of a storage room. It predates HDMI; the receiver's best audio connection is optical.
My television set has an optical output (Sanyo FW65R70F). Before I become a human backhoe and go dig it out, any thoughts on whether it would it work to connect the televsion to the receiver by optical cable, leaving the DVR, disk player, and XBox connected directly to the television by HDMI?
