Hdmi?

[rack04]

Since HDMI is an A/V cable, how do you hook up a DVD player video directly to the TV and audio to receiver?

simple

I'm assuming that the DVD player has HDMI.

From the DVD to the Receiver with a HDMI,

From the Receiver to the TV with HDMI,

From the Receiver to speakers using regular speaker wire.

Hope that helps

My H/K AVR230 doesn't have HDMI input/output. Which receivers have HDMI input/output.

 

[JohnA]

most Flagship

models have them...$1000 on up.

Does your TV have HDMI inputs?

It will, I am looking into the following sytem:

Toshiba 52HM84
Panasonic DVD-S97S
Yamaha HTR-5790
Pair of Axiom Millennia M60ti Towers
Pair of Axiom AS8 Surrounds
Axiom VP100 Center
HSU STF-2 Sub

Ok...

If the receiver will not have the HDMI then take the HDMI from the DVD to the TV and a digital audio out from the DVD to the receiver. Make sure you go into the menu of the receiver and set the digital input to the correct Video input.

Having it hooked up this way will you have audio through the tv speakers as well?
