Connecting Sony Receiver to Connect

I have a Sony STR DE 895, I have a turntable and tv hooked up. TV is hooked up via digital connection.

Receiver is connected to Connect via the tape out. I can only get the record player and radio to play to the connect. The tv will not. I'm thinking it might not be possible, since it's a digital signal from the tv. Is there anything I'm doing wrong, or anyway I can make this work?
Thanks

Yup, that’s your answer. Sony isn’t sending a signal from a digital input to the analog outputs.
Here’s what I found in the manual. Sounds like it is not possible


• It is not possible to record analog signals to the components connected to MD/TAPE and VIDEO jacks with
only digital connections. To record analog signals, make analog connections. To record digital signals, make
digital connections.
Check the manual. There are many receivers that won't send a digital input out through the analog output.
