I have below 3 components

1. LG LED LS34 series TV (HD)
2. Reliance HD set top box
3. Philips DSP 30U (got free on purchase of TV and a non HD and very old model)

Only one HD port slot in TV. So I am using that for HD TV and & HD Set top box connection.
Now How to connection the home theater in such a way that I can watch DVD as well as Set Top channels via home theaters.

Plz help me. Would appreciate if instructions given step by step. :)



Answer
First lets deal with the video. I imagine your connecting the set-top box to the TV using a HDMI cable.

If the DVD player has a HDMI port you could use that to connect to the TV, but would have to change which HDMI cable is plugged in depending on whether your watching TV (through the set-top box) or DVDs. You could buy a HDMI splitter box which would save you swapping the cables over all the time.

Alternatively you can plug the DVD into the tv using a SCART of S-Video cable.

In terms of audio. Your set-top box will have an Optical out, which will transmit digital audio. Aslong as your DVD player (which is also your amp, as far as I can tell) has an optical port, you can use one of the following;

If this solution isn't possible, I'm happy to help you find an alternative.

Well... your TV should work in the North America. In the user manual it does say that it supports NTSC-4.43, NTSC-3.58 (and various other standards). It also supports HDMI and PC inputs, so you could always use those in a pinch (see p58 of your manual for the specifications).

That said, it won't support North American power, so you'll need a power converter to plug it in. Most power converters are designed for traveling and not for full time use. They are notoriously wasteful on electricity. You'll probably pay for a new TV in a few years just on wasted power.

For the trouble of this, you could easily just sell the TV in the UK for £300 ($400 or so) and buy a new 40" TV in Canada for about $550 -- or a used one for about half that.
