Connecting Samsung soundbar to Sceptre tv

[spaghetti521]

I have a 32" Sceptre flat screen tv that I am trying to connect with my Samsung soundbar. My soundbar has a USB port, digital optical cable port, and a headphone jack. My tv does not have a digital optical port but does have all of the regular ports (RCA ports, headphone jack, USB port, HDMI ports). I am trying to figure out how to connect the 2 to have the sound come out of my soundbar. Can someone help me please? I'm not the most audio/tech savvy person so asking others would be easier than me going through the trail and error of figuring this out.

You need something like this.

You can either come out of the headphone jack to the RCA inputs on the converter....OR...if your TVs RCA jacks are analog OUT....you can go from there to the converter....then to the soundbar from the converter.

Thank you jay32267!! I've seen those before but had no idea what they were for or how to use them. I appreciate your help
