Does your TV support 5.1 pass through? Why don't you connect the other way round: STB to HT In; HT Out to TV.

ARC works only for OTA channels, i.e., channels that come via tuner, in most televisions. They just pass stereo for all other sources using ARC. So, it would be best to attach STB => HT Receiver => TV, if you want to use 5.1 surround sound.

U can use optical cable connecting to HT from STB... select Dolby Digital in Preffered audio for SPDIF .. I am getting DD like this.. Connect HDMI to TV for Better PQ..

If HT & TV (both) HDMI supports DD ARC , it is better to use HDMI, instead of optical, HDMI will have higher channels

Sorry if HT supports HDMI*

Still i preffer Direct connection of HDMI for TV.. if the Picture passes through HT then the original Picture quality maybe altered by HT ... Although HT should have HDMI Out put option for this..

In general HT will improve picture quality with true colour.

Artificial changes which i didnt want .. although even TV is upscaling picture a little bit but we cant avoid ... If we connect through HT The picture actually upscaled twice...
But at the end of the day its users comfort ...
