    (Had previously asked this in Computers but got no response)

    I have an external Multimedia Hard Drive connected to my TV via scart. I also have a Sky HD box, with the sound routed through a Samsung Home Cinema system. When I watch something on the MMHD the sound comes through the TV (obviously). Is there anyway to have the Sky box and the MMHD connected to the Home Cinema at the same time, so that I can have Home Cinema sound for both Sky and the MMHD?

    Thanks

    The HC system is a Samsung HT-Q20
    The TV is a Samsung-not sure of the model-it has 1 HD socket; 2 scart; optical; component; DVI etc.

    ok the aonly audio for that system is rca connectors. connect the sky and the hdd to the tv then use the audio out from the tv down to the home cinema. this way, anything you are watching on tv will have its sound played through the home cinema
