Hi,
I am pretty good when it comes to hooking up electronics but I have witnessed a first.
My dad just bought a 60" Samsung LED from Sam's Club (UN60EH6002F) and a Vizio soundbar with wireless sub (SB4021MB1)
My problem is the soundbar only has 3 'inputs" - optical in, coaxial in, and analog in.
The TV only has HDMI "inputs" and audio "inputs".
THERE ARE NO OUTPUTS! How can I hook an "input" to an "input"? I got it to work by hooking it through the DVD player b/c it has multiple outputs but I can't get Dish network to play through DVD player. How can I get this to work with just TV and Soundbar?
I can't believe in this day and age with our technology that this new LED tv has NO outputs.

Specifiaction says that this TV has optical out.
In the support video on this page you can see it around 0:12.

Connect this output with optical in the soundbar.

It looks like this is the same TV as yours:

my only problem is I have to connect two devices with inputs.I need an adapter or hub with 1 or two inputs and at least two outputs. (if that makes sense)
what devices do you mean since most set top boxes, players and games consoles tend to have outputs, only av receivers and soundbars etc tend to have inputs.
