Re: Help with suround sound.
The red and white cable is actually going from the TV to the DTS box - I think. This is sending a stereo signal from the TV to the decoder.

If your STB is connected to the TV by SCART and you are watching on an AV channel then you are sending a stereo signal to the decoder from the STB.

NTL STBs don't do digital audio. The only STBs that do are some Sky boxes and Sky+. This only feeds on the Sky Movie channels.

Whilst BBC1 etc only broadcast in stereo, they do send the Dolby ProLogic signals in that transmission. So if your decoder does ProLogic (which you will probably need to manually set unlike the digital feed) then turning it on should give you more of a surround sound.
