Roku Streambar- can you connect to a splitter with optical audio?

Has anyone found a HDMI splitter with optical out that will work with the Streambar connected to the splitter? I have an old TV with only one HDMI port without ARC or optical. Need to be able to connect my cable and Stream

  • I have an older TV that does not support HDMI/ARC nor does it have an Optical port. Is there any way to get my Streambar working on this TV with an adapter of some kind?

      You can use the Streambar as a regular Roku, to stream channels. But without an audio out of the tv, you won't be able to hear other devices connected to your tv through the Streambar.
