How do I remove the decoder off from the tuner? I can not get audio.

It won't work because the tuner from your ilo TV will not be able to decode the digital signal from the cable company even if your TV has a digital tuner. The digital tuner on your TV will only decode over the air signals.
You will still need the digital cable box from the cable company.

You don't. You change the signal at the source device end, not the TV.

If you have connected a Blu-ray player or a games console, then set the device audio option to Bitstream. This will send a data stream to the TV that it will decode either as Dolby or DTS depending on the source signal format.

Dolby Digital is only an option for an external AV source connected via HDMI. That's the only way to get a Bitstream signal in to the TV. The TV's internal tuner is only capable of PCM audio. It's a DVB-T tuner (standard definition) rather than the DVB-T2 tuner needed for HD. Even then, only the HD channels are encoded in DD.

Iff your BD player or console is decoding to stereo PCM, then it's doing the same job as the TV. There's a small advantage with one of the audio processing modes in how it limits the dynamic range, but other than that PCM and DD will sound identical. This is especially the case with any TV that has no optical audio out, as in this case. The TV can't pass a DD signal out to an external audio system. So all sound is played via the internal speakers or headphone jack. It'll all sound the same, PCM or DD.

Some HDTVs can output analog video and audio but if you say your HDTV does not, then you would have to use some other tuner/box/decoder/converter such as a cable box if you have cable TV service or a DTV converter box for over-the-air TV or a satellite box. The VCR would connect to the tuner/converter box and record analog video and audio using the RCA yellow video and white audio jacks. Standard VCRs cannot record high-def video except as down-converted analog video.

The VCR would then connect to the HDTVs inputs (yellow, white) for playback.

thats the most i could get go here http://kenwoodusa.com/Contact/ and have them send u one hopw that helps.

tuner or stereo decoder ic or cap in its decoder circuit, your dvd is sending audio through patch cords bypassing tuner - decoder audio circuit. advise just getting digital tuner from oboma and that will cure your problem.

If the set has two tuners, you can put two cable feeds on it. You simply use a splitter on the cable feed to have two feeds from the same cable feed.

If you are using a decoder, you will need a separate decoder for each video/audio input to the TV set. The exception would be a dual tuner decoder with independent outputs.

Hi,

Three (3) possible ways:
1. use the audio out of the TV (if available) which would normally be red/white RCA and connect to any of the free INputs of your DVD surround sound system;
2. remove the cable INput of your TV and feed it to a tuner such as those in a VCR or any other device (some DVDs have TV tuners also). The VCR's Video OUTput would go to your TV while the Audio OUTput would go to any of the free INputs of your DVD surround sound system;
3. if your cable uses a box/decoder and has the yellow, red & white RCA, its a matter of splitting the red/white signal to feed both your TV and DVD surround sound system or simply remove them from the TV and feed them to the DVD surround sound system.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

Thank you for using FixYa.

This tv is analog, EDTV is only enhanced definition tv ,480p resolution, not the HDTV 1080i or 1080p resolution, the mts/sap tuner has to do with the audio decoder. For example: SAP would allow you to view a station broadcast in english to be heard in spanish. MTS is surround sound broadcast. Thanks

This television has an extremely weak tuner. It is very sensitive to both ghosting (multipath) and weak signal conditions, which cause it's digital decoder to "error out". Coupled with this is the decoder's long set-up time (time to actually begin a decoded video stream after signal is selected)and you find that every time the decoder loses sync it takes several seconds to reestablish normal decoding. The net result is the possiblity that the tuner will be continually restarting and never display anything. An extremely directional antenna may help. Otherwise, find a good external tuner box and use that.
