I have an RCA 5240 DVD player, I am trying to connect it to a Awia DV-58 Receiver. I first tried the Optical port and it was dead, (no light) so I went out a bought a Digital Coaxial cable and again nothing! I called the RCA phone support and he said I should just stick to the Analog audio (He said It is crystal clear amazing sound!)

Has anyone had a problem with this player? I would like a few ideas before I go postal on RCA
