Can you connect a blu-ray player to a dvd player to use surround sound system?

blu ray player has no sound image

Lisa

Hi! A few years ago we bought a surround system that includes a dvd player. I want to buy my husband a blu-ray player for Christmas, but can we hook that up to our old dvd player to still use the surrround sound? I hope this makes sense... :)

Thanks!

Answer
Connect optical cable from Blu-ray player to system for surround sound if your system has one.

How can I connect my surround sound system to my Panasonic DMP-605 Blu Ray Player?

The instructions are for multiple blu ray players not just the DMP-605, and it lists how to connect 7.1ch, 5.1ch and 2ch surround sound. We have a 5.1ch speaker setup, but it doesn't show how to connect it. It only shows how to connect a different model blu ray player. Please tell if you have any information.

Answer
The instructions should be very similar for all blu-ray players, just hook up the HDMI cable and you're done. Set the blu-ray to bitstream audio over HDMI, set your home theater system's surround mode to auto, and everything should work fine.
