So about a year or two ago I bought a DVD home theatre system, all the speakers connect to the DVD player. Now I am considering buying a blue-ray player but don't know if I can somehow connect it to the speakers on the DVD home theatre, or play it through the blue-ray but get the sound from the DVD system. The speakers are great and don’t really want to spend big money having to buy a bunch of new equipment. There is only one HDMI connection on both the TV and DVD player as well. Anyone have any suggestions?
 
Home theater in a box are not flexible for adding other items to them, or for upgrading. What you can do is connect the blu ray disc player directly to the tv using HDMI cable and then connect an optical audio cable from the tv to the home theater in a box. Depending on the home theater you have, it can have a time delay from video to sound. You can also connect an optical audio cable from the blu ray disc player to the home theater directly and forget the tv connection. Hope this will help you out.
