Hi all I have an original playbar with the digital optical connection, and I’m hoping someone will know what I need to be able to connect it to a new sky glass tv with HDMI connections and no optical connections.

Sky really have a cheek producing TVs without optical out - its a legal requirement for TVs sold in the USA.

    Thanks very much for your comments. Unfortunately in the UK I don’t think this is a requirement. 
    Do you have any advice on how I can connect and with what. Any advice would be good, I’m a bit stuck at the moment as what to do.

    Maybe this unit (or similar) is available in the UK. Note that this is a stereo only converter.
