As the owner of an old home theater that is not compatible with recent TVs, I purchased a Speaka Pro converter (SCART to HDMI) which I connected to my TV via SCART (home theater) and HDMI (TV). However, I have no sound or image. The TV works with the latest Orange box. If anyone can help... thank you...

Hello,
What are the references (brand and model) of
- your home cinema?
- your television
What is the exact model of this Speaka pro converter?
This one: https://www.amazon.fr/Convertisseur-PERITEL-sortie-suppl%C3%A9mentaire-Professional/dp/B01HU46LX8

Good evening,
It is indeed this converter.
My TV is a recent Philips HDMI (2) and the home theater is an old Panasonic 5.1, its HT/500.
The TV works with an Orange box.
Good evening, -
My TV is a Philips 7373 series... thanks again... I connected the converter to the TV (HDMI cable) and to the home theater (scart cable). Sound with DVD, but no picture and no sound on the home theater with just the TV turned on...

Okay for the Panasonic SA HT500
However, I would prefer the full model number of the television (see label on the back)
As for the converter, I’m afraid it may only be PAL/NTSC but incompatible with the French Secam standards
Here’s a model from the same manufacturer, SpeaKa Professional AV Converter SP-HD/SC-01, which is listed as Secam compatible

Hello,
The references are:
Model no. 50PUS7303/12
Serial no. FZ3A1902075507
The advisor at Conrad recommended this item to me.
Thank you. -
The advisor at Conrad recommended this article to me
Which article did he recommend to you?
The model you have, SP-HD/SC-02 or the one I just gave you the link to at Conrad: the SP-HD/SC-01?
This SCART to HDMI converter was supposed to solve the issue of sending images (and sound) from the Panasonic to the television
although sound in that direction is already managed by the home cinema.
However, it cannot transmit sound from the television to the home cinema.
If we want the home cinema to transmit sound when the television is displaying channels provided by the Orange TV box
then we need an audio cable (3.5mm jack/RCA) between the headphone output of the television and the audio input of the home cinema.
Your television has a YUV component input (3.5mm video jack)
Another way to transmit the image from the home cinema to the television would be to use a SCART to YUV adapter to connect with the 3.5mm video jack/RCA cable that was provided with the television

Hello, thank you for all this information... I will try using the audio cable (3.5mm jack/RCA) first. I'll keep you updated this evening. The most important thing for me is to have the TV sound through the home theater. Have a nice day.

Ok for the audio cable... I just tried... no sound... headphone output is at max... the jack must be plugged into the headphone output of the TV, right? I connected my headphones to the headphone output of the TV and there’s no sound... is there a setting on the TV? .. thanks..
-
Yes, the jack must be properly connected to the headphone jack
Before connecting the headphones to the headphone jack, do you have sound from the television speakers?
I don't know if using it cuts off the TV speakers (the TV manual doesn't mention it)
What is your headphone model?
Next, where did you connect the red and white RCA plugs on the Panasonic?
Did you select these inputs as the source on the Panasonic?

Yes, absolutely I have sound on the TV... tried with Beyerdynamic DT 240 Pro then low-end Sony...
Connections plugged into the back of the Panasonic... (audio output)... -
Absolutely no sound at all... on the Pana I don't have any other sockets... well... I might look into getting a next-generation home cinema... the headphone jack might be defective... for now, I'll put it on hold... sorry for the inconvenience... and thanks again...

Yes... an audio TV in... I tried both... it is indeed this Panasonic... I don't see what else I can do... have a good evening...
