Hi my “Sherwood RD-6108 A/V Receiver” used to hook up with my old tube TV and a composite cable (red, yellow, white). It worked great, remote and all. Recently I bought a Sony Google TV, which has only 4 HDMI and 1 optical out put and 2 USB ports.
My receiver doesn’t have an HDMI input jack, but it has an optical jack. When I hooked up an optical cable tv to the receiver, it didn't work.
After I put one end of the cable to the TV, I checked the other end of the cable. Then I saw the red light glowing from the end. There was also a red light glowing inside the TV optical jack, but there was no light glowing inside the A/V receiver optical jack. I don't know if my receiver's optical jack is bad or something else. Please help me.
😱😕

😱😕😀Only in the SOURCE end of the cable will be light. Not in the receiver side, that is the... RECEIVING side of that light signal.
Most likely is a setting that is wrong in your new toy. Somewhere on the "Digital Audio" side...
