Next, turn on the computer to allow it to detect the

it

Before selecting S/PDIF digital audio, ensure that your
computer supports S/PDIF.

Multiple connectors —
Keep audio and video
together

If you are connecting to a TV that has multiple video and
audio connectors available, connect the audio cables to
the same row of connectors as the video cables.

For example, if the TV has a row of video and audio
connectors for AV5 and a row for AV6, ensure that both
video and audio are connected to either AV5 or AV6 but
not both.
