Also connected is a comcast dvr box. i've tried the optical thing between the dvr box and the home theater but the optical cable falls out every time. so that's not an option. I got the hts to work with just the 2 speakers with the red and white regular audio cables but i want all of the speakers to work when i'm watching tv. I can't figure this out. There are so many cables and I have no idea which ones I need. I have an hdmi cable i'm not even using. where does everything go? please help, I'm behind the times I guess.</p></blockquote><p></p>
