hi guys, its been a while since ive posted here, but its looking as good as ever! :)

anyways, we just got a dvd recorder, but have a slight problem.

it only has 1 audio output! :S

basically, the manual says you either connect it to 5.1ch out (L, R, SL, SR, SUB, CENTRE) OR you connect it to the TV via L and R only.

as i will be using the recorder as a standard DVD player aswell, i want it to be able to be hooked upto the TV aswell as the 5.1ch stereo.

how can i do it? can i use RCA splitters to split the DVD recorders output to go to the TV and the 5.1ch stereo?

i wouldnt ever be using both at the same time, its just wen i record something off the TV i have to have the 5.1ch Stereo on aswell, which doesnt seem right, and the audio is recorded in 5.1ch and sounds weird.

i dont see a problem with using RCA splitters, coz wen i record off TV, ill be using the TV speakers (normal 2ch) (stereo off) and if i want to watch a DVD ill just mute the TV and put it thru the 5.1ch stereo.

sound about right?

cheers for any help! :)

If you plan to use this recorder with your home stereo, forget it. Take it back. Almost all DVD recorders have digital audio out, as well as RCA outs.
