Run an HDMI from the DVR to the surround sound system and then another HDMI from the surround sound to the TV. You won't get surround sound out of something unless you run it through the surround sound system. If you run the DVR to the TV and then to the surround sound you'll only get 2-channels because your TV can't pass surround sound.
