I have a Sony STR-DE845 Receiver and a Toshiba SD-1200 DVD player. I have never been able to get Dolby Digtial sound out from my setup. Today I went and bought a Coax Digital Audio Cable from Rat Shack and hooked it up. However, now I have no sound.
I plugged the cable in the Bitstream out plug of the DVD player and into the DVD/LD In Coax input on the receiver. I had sound with only the analog RCA cables. I set the receiver to Auto Format Decode and nothing or from any other speaker mode for that matter.
My receiver has RCA plug ins for 5.1 speakers but I just have them hooked up to the posts. Is this incorrect? If so do I just buy the RCA ends and put them on my speaker wire? I have emailed both Sony and Toshiba but doubt I will hear anything from either. Please help.
Thanks,
Doug
