Hi Andrew,
If you have an LCD flatscreen TV you do actually have HD and it should have
HDMI inputs unless you mix up the terminology/technology here. Is your TV
still a big box that is a foot or more from front to back or is it a flat,
relatively thin unit? When I bought my Sony LCD TV about 5 years ago they
were not nearly as thin as the LCD or LED TV's are nowadays, but it still is
only maybe 3 or so inches thick. Even if your TV does not have HDMI inputs,
you could get around this if you have buy a home theatre receiver or speaker
system and unless you want something of higher quality which would cost
maybe between $800 and $2,000 you can get entry level systems for $300 or
$400. Those should have HDMI inputs and also still have analogue outputs so
you could connect your older TV and the receiver would convert the digital
signal to an analogue one for your TV. Of course you can pick up 32 inch and
even 37 inch and 40 inch LCD TV's for not too much money these days
especially if you wait maybe until a good sale like around Black Friday or
Boxing Day and the Apple TV is $99 so it doesn't break the bank, either.
Take care,
Sieghard

What is digital optical output and what does one use it for?
I'd like to say how useful this discussion about Apple tv is for me. I've
not got one yet but I'm learning a lot about it so when I do get it, I will
be much better informed. I have not got an hd tv yet so I can't get Apple tv
because I understand that it does not work with previous generations tv
sets. Mine is a lcd flat screen tv.
Many thanks again to all of you.
Andrew

Hi Simon,
I also have not hooked up the Apple TV to my receiver with an optical
cable, but there is no reason why Voiceover should not work if you choose
to do so.
Apple has made the Apple TV accessible with Voiceover and it would
make little sense to do this only when an HDMI connection is used,
after all, HDMI is still a digital connection except that it includes
video as well as audio whereas the optical connector is just for
audio. In any case, if you are interested just buy it from Apple and
send it back within 30 days should you not like it.
Regards,
Sieghard

do you happen to know if the voice over will come out of both the
HDMI, and optical digital audio ports, or is it just via the HDMI?

Hi.The Apple TV comes with VoiceOver all set to use. If it hasn't
been set up yet it will tell you to press the lower right button on
the remote three times to activate it. What makes it even nicer is
you can easily turn VoiceOver off if you want, then with a couple of
commands turn it on again.
If you have any other questions let me know.
GO TIGERS!
