Hope someone can help.

Trying to connect sound bar to new TV.

Sound bar has white & red female sockets.

Old TV had white & red female sockets - simples!

New fangled TV has one yellow female, & came with an adapter which has a
single yellow male joined to 1 x red, 1 x white, 1 x yellow females.

Logic told me to connect red/red & white/white ignoring yellow.

But it don't not work :-(


No HDMI connectors?


Not on the soundbar, that only has the red/white thingys.



Have you setup the tv to use external speakers?




There doesn't seem to be that option on the menu.



On the off-chance this isn't a wind-up.

Download or view the PDF of the manual for the TV, off of the
web - always far easier than faffing around with the paper
version

Starting at the top do a search for "external" which should
throw up a succession of matches one of which should eventually
be for sound sources, maybe even "speaker select". Follow what it
says on there.
