I have a Samsung tv and have recently purchased a Panasonic surround sound blu ray system. I have brought an optical sound cable and set the player to digital in (optical). Sound is still playing through the TV though? Any ideas?

Connecting an optical cable does not automatically disable the TV's built-in audio. It's possible to hear the audio from both the TV and surround system simultaneously. You'll need to either disable the TV speakers via the menu (if available) or simply turn the TV volume down to minimum.

I'm getting nothing from the surround sound atall? And can't find any suitable settings on the TV to change? I've tried turning the TV speakers off as per the setup menu but still nothing from the surround sound?
 

There are dozens (if not hundreds) of Samsung TVs, and another dozen of Panasonic HTBs...
- what are the model numbers?
- are you sure you've configured properly your Panasonic to play audio thru Optical In?
