home theater receiver

Optical audio connection to home theater receiver?
My new Toshiba HDTV has an Optical Audio Out to carry the audio to my receiver. My older Sony home theater receiver has an Optical jack labeled “Video 2 In”. I’m assuming that I can connect these two to take get the surround sound from off-air HDTV broadcast signals that I’m receiving on the Toshiba using an antenna. Can anyone verify that for me?
Yes, that should work…as long as the Video 2 in is in fact an optical jack. You would just need to set your receiver to the Video 2 setting in order to listen to the broadcast when you turn on your receiver. As far as surround sound, the broadcast that you’re getting from the off-air antenna needs to be broadcast in 5.1, 6.1 etc. and your receiver needs to also be capable of producing it. But overall, you should be good to go.
