I can only hear surround sound when playing DVDs and would like to hear it with the dish channels and VCR as well.

1) Check the sound setup in Windows and switch to digital output

2) Open your own thread next time to ask a question

annieojens,

How is your dish box connected to your surround sound? You need a digital connection (coax or optical).

I can't get my surround sound to work with my TV it works through my DVD and when we hook the Xbox up but not the TV. I have a Direct TV satelite, Toshiba TV, Magnavox DVD/VHS player and a Kawasaki Surround sound system. Way to many wires. Any suggestions?

Have you consulted the manual first? This should be your starting point as it will give you an idea of how things should be set up.

SAgarlanegirl: You have a Panasonic SC-H730 home theater in a box set up.You have two speakers on stands for the front left and right. The rear speakers go up on a book shelf or wall in the rear facing forward or on the sides of the couch facing each other about six feet off the floor.the center channel sits on top of the TV.All speakers hook up to the subwoofer which hooks up to the reciever. The cable box audio out hooks up to the TV input on the reciever. If you don't have a cable box use the audio outs on the TV to hook up to the reciever. Read the manual thats how I know yor system.
