your Sky±HD box directly to the TV instead of through the
DVD/video recorder.
To connect your box to an audio system, you can use;
EITHER a coaxial digital audio cable
OR an audio (L/R) cable
OR an optical digital audio cable, as shown on the right.
To make the most of listening to programmes through your audio
system, see Switching on Dolby® Digital audio (page 89).
