Are you using a Digital Optical cable from your dvd to you main source? Either the dvd is dusty or you digital cable needs cleaning or you need a new one...buy online to get the best deals.

Here are some links: http://www.nextag.com/All~optical+audio+cablesz0zB4zttz5-htm

go on ebay and do a search; "digital optical cable" and there should be a bunch listed if you do mind to shop on ebay.

Theres my "Two Cents" hope that somewhat helped you out.

Well you are not going to the best sound quality from a tv broadcast reception. Maybe your your cables coming from you sat/cable source to your stereo are not shielded. Shielded cables do make a difference.

Oh,the actual audio cables im using from the tv to the Stereo are junky ones from wal-mart..But for the DVD player I got Component wires,and the Digital for audio. Will the audio cables make a difference in sound for just normal tv,or mainly the shielded part is what their desired for?

Im not too knowledgable about cables, but from what I read yes, better the cables, better the profromance to a certain extent.
