trying to install sky sound box and cannot plug optical cable into tv, where is the port, or is there not one. if so is there an alternative option please?
TVs don't have optical audio inputs. They do have optical audio outputs but that doesn't help you.
If you connect the skybox with HDMI then you don't need a separate audio connection.
If you connect the skybox with analog video then there will be an analog audio output that will connect to the TV along with the analog video.
