I'm getting ready to program my brother's new Harmony One remotely from my house but before I program it he needs to change his system setup. He doesn't know a lot about setting things up and I won't be going to his house anytime soon.

He has an older system a Kenwood A/V VR-505, Panasonic Plasma TH50PX80U, Lite-On DVD LVW-5005 (Optical & Coaxial Digital Outputs), Dish DVR-522 (Optical Output)

Currently he has all audio/video going to the tv and then he's running the TV's optical output to the Kenwood CD/DVD Optical Input which makes no sense since he's not getting 5.1 from any of his devices.

Could someone take a look at his Kenwood A/V manual http://www.kenwoodusa.com/UserFiles/File/UnitedStates/Home/Manuals/vr506.pdf and look at pages 9-13. Pertaining to page 13 I can't figure out if he has 2 or 3 digital inputs DVD, CD/DVD, Video2 Monitor Coaxial.

Does it look like he just has one Coax Digital (DVD) and one Optical Input (CD/DVD)?

If so then he could use the Lite-On's Coaxial digital Output and the Dish's Optical Output to the Kenwood. Then hope he doesn't still need the Plasma's Optical Output in case he's getting OTA channels via outside antenna.

Can you explain which button you use to set his Lite-On Dvd to the Kenwood's Coax Digital Input? His Dish Receiver to the Kenwood's Optical Input?
