[QUOTE="kinosfronimos, post: 981670, member: 14190"] Yip, digital connection, albeit a 'long' one. HDMI out from laptop, to TV for the video, and then optical audio out of the TV into the AVR. Reading what I just wrote, I'm not sure why not direct HDMI from the laptop into the AVR, and then HDMI out the AVR to the TV; but I do know that when I set it up like it is now, there was a reason, which I obviously now can't recall. Might have had something to do with the age of the AVR (circa 2006), maybe the HDMI's are only video, not audio (whereas the laptop is circa 2016). Also I don't have another HDMI cable, so the original setup will continue to work for now (the AVR displays the signal received as digital anyways). [/QUOTE]
