Hi,
The Apple TV 4th generation doesn't have optical audio out, but if you get a receiver that has an HDMI input, just connect the HDMI cable from the 4th gen apple tv to the receiver and using another HDMI cable, connect the receiver to your TV. HDMI sends both a video signal and audio using the same cable. Newere receivers can have multiple HDMI inputs and one HDMI output connections. You can do the same with the third generation apple tv as well as it has an HDMI port. Also make sure your TV has an HDMI connection or the Appple TV won't work anyway.

Hi,

I am considering purchasing Apple tv for streaming films and tv series which I 
have on my mac for family and friends onto my tv set.  Which would be the best 
Apple tv to get?  I was wondering whether to go with Apple tv third generation. 
 Please may I have your views on this?  I hear that the latest Apple tv has no 
audio output and I might want to stream music to a receiver in the future if or 
when I have one.  So I'm thinking of the future as well.

Many thanks

Andrew
