This is not how I would do it. Since you use optical (I do as well) I would take the signal from the Apple TV to your TV set over HDMI which gives you the highest digital fidelity possible then take the optical out on the back of your TV and route that to your receiver. Then anything heard

Apple TV-No Optical Port

2015-09-13 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hello, I have a question. I know that there are 3.5 mm jack to blue tooth adaptors, which I learned a while back. Will this work with the new Apple TV if one needed to use an optical cable to rout the Apple TV through their receiver? This may be an option for those who are not in the market

Re: Apple TV-No Optical Port

2015-09-13 Thread Ray Foret Jr
Totally forget that option. The ONLY connections on the Apple TV are as follows: 1. RJ45 port for ethernet. 2. HDMI port for connecting to either HDTV or HD capable AV receiver. 3. MiniUSB. 4. Optical digital output. Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray, Still a very happy Mac

The new Apple TV, which isn't even available to purchase yet, has dropped the optical audio out. So the only option is to get your audio via HDMI or send it to an airport express with optical audio outputs. They did add 7.1 surround sound if you're really into that home theater sound setup
