frank New member Username: Frankken Post Number: 1 Registered: May-06	Posted on Saturday, May 20, 2006 - 21:58 GMT Two days and no progress - please help. Here's my setup. TV-SVideo-DVD Player Kenwood-Digital Coax (Video2)-DVD Player All speakers hooked up - 2 front, ctr, 2 rear, sub Test tone works DVD player set to Bitstream, 48, DD, DTS Saving Priv Ryan DVD set to 5.1 digital sound. (The other option was Dolby Digital 2.1) NOW, my receiver picks up stereo and DD Prologic. What am I missing? I want to get 5.1 SS. Thanks.

There is a "Digital In" section on the back of the Kenwood. I have a cable from the coax video2 there to my Sanyo's coax digital. So, I selected video2 as my Input. Video's great. Sound is great from the front speakers. But I would like to get surround sound 5.1

I now get the Rear and Center speakers light up on the kenwood display. The display also says Coax Dolby Digital. BUT no sound yet from center and rears.
