Hi all, very new to all this...
I'm trying to get my new AV Receiver working directly to my smart tv as I only use streaming service son the built in TV apps (Netflix, Disney plus etc). The only available output from the TV seems to an optical out from the 'one connect' box. I understand optical doesn't support most modern 'sound settings' such as Atmos (maybe even 5.1?) etc. Is there a straightforward way of connecting the two devices. There doesn't appear to be an HDMI out (although there is an HDMI ARC input if that helps).
I have connected them via blue tooth, but guess this isn't going to do the job?
