Regular tv is only in 2.0 and your receiver forces it into 3.1 if you want 5.1 or 7.1 which ever you have, press the button on the receiver that says "AFD" and it will play it over all of your speakers.

regular Verizon FIOS TV? I have a problem and was wondering if anyone could assist me with it. I just got for Christmas a 5.1 Sony DVD Home Theatre System (Model: DAV-HDX285) it works perfectly and beyound what I imagined, in some ways even better then how a movie theatre acutally sounds like, but that's only when I have it set to DVD mode from when you change the function you want on your receiver
remote. Overall, when I attempt to switch to regular TV mode just to watch my FIOS cable- only the Front Right, Centre, and Subwoofer work. The rest of the speakers of which are the Front Left, Back Right, and Back Left do not work, they have no sound coming out of them but work perfectly when I put a DVD into the system. I have no clue what is causing this problem or sort of conflict, I don't know if maybe one of the cables aren't in right, or there is a certain cable I may need to use when watching Verizon FIOS TV to make all of the speakers run smoothly and effectively. I just want to say, the system is brand new, has never been touched, came right from the store and I was just wondering what this problem could possibly be and how I can resolve this to make my viewing experience more pleasurable while watching normal TV and not a DVD. Just setting up the wires and cables into the back of the TV and receiver itself was a pain in the ass- as I never had a system like this before and I got confused right off the bat so I may have something in wrong, I just need a helpful hand and would like anyone kind enough to guide me on what I should do and the measures I should take.

-Thanks again and Happy Holiday's.
