I want to get the 5.1 playing anything thats on SKY so do I connect the DVD Surround Sound directly to the Sky box or can I use a 4 in 1 on the Sky box? and when I insert DVD's into the DVD Recorder such as a DVD it will play through the surround sound unit?”

You won't get 5.1 from Sky because the sound system has no digital/HDMI input.
You can connect the DVDr to the sound system via the stereo audio outputs, but you will need a switch box if you are wanting to connect more than one device to the sound system.
Not really any point playing DVD's through the DVDr as it will only give you DPL at best - DVD's through the systems player should give you 5.1 when available.
