Audio 5.1 and video Hdmi? Help

I have a Ps3 and a TV LCD Panasonic Viera and i'm currently using and hdmi cable to connect the Ps3 to the TV.

I'm planning on getting a Home Theater so i can enjoy 5.1 sound, so the question is:

Since the Ps3 has only 1 hdmi port, how am i able to connect the tv an the HT via Hdmi?

I heard that optical audio cables don't support uncompresed PCM and Dolby HD, so i would like to use HDMI for both audio and video.

Is this even possible? How should i setup?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the video, but i actually meant how do i physically connect both audio and video via hdmi since the ps3 has only 1 hdmi port?

Why would you need to connect the surround sound to the ps3 directly? Why dont you plug it into the tv?

I would but if u connect the sound directly to ur ps3 i guess u'll have a better experience.

I heard u lose quality if u pass through the TV first as u said, but anyway i'm not sure.
