I have the choice of HDMI ARC or Optical from my TV to a soundbar. Before I run out to purchase a cable is one superior to the other for a TV to soundbar application?
Follow along with the video below to see how to install our site as a web app on your home screen.

I have a Samsung Soundbar and TV. I could get ARC to work for Control, but no sound. So I'm connected via ARC and opitcal both.
I think arc and control are 2 different features of hdmi.
My Panasonic plasma and pioneer elite don't have ARC, but it does do hdmi control,
I can use the TVs remote to do volume and it says Home Theater Audio on the screen and the volume changes on the reciever. And when I turn off the tv, the receiver turns off.
I know the pioneer doesn't have ARC since that is the reason the guy on Craigslist was selling it.
