Help for a technaphobe please!
We have a Samsung TV (model ue49ks7500u) and a Samsung soundbar. We've connected via WiFi but recently the soundbar keeps dropping off, so we wanted to connect via cable. We purchased an optical cable but can't work out where to plug it in on the TV?! There's no audio out hole, but in the sound options on the TV it has "audio out/optical" as an option under select speaker

Hi @Beck123 You should be able to connect the cable to the Digital Audio Out Optical port of the Tv as shown in this guide, the other end will be connected to the Digital Audio In optical port on the Soundbar. connections shown here https://www.avforums.com/reviews/samsung-ks7500-ue55ks7500-uhd-4k-tv-review.12590
However the better sound quality via an HDMI connection, see more here https://www.samsung.com/Soundbar Connections
