Hi guys, its my first post and its about this reciever. I just bought this reciever and still havent installed. I currently have a PS3 (HDMI), Cable Box (RCA), HD-DVD (HDMI), Satellite Reciever (Component). My question is the following, When i connect everything does it send the signal out of the reciever to the tv through the HDMI or Every input thats not hdmi need another output thats not hdmi? Ex. The ps3 ill conect it through the HDMI input in the reciever and output it to the tv through the hdmi output, the component cables of the sat reciever go in the reciever, do i have to concect an output for the reciever with another component cable or does it go out through the hdmi to the tv also? thanks!!

I am not familar with that specific AVR but it should upconvert everything to HDMI. Your owners manual is a good place to look.

Here is your owner's manual: http://www.yamaha.com/yamahavgn/Documents/YEC/AV_Receivers/Manual/RX-V463_U.pdf

page 14 - support HDMI level 1.2 a ( sometimes if not at HDMI 1.3 you have to connect audio separately; see page 67 and see HDMI set).

HMDI set- page 67

RX-V463 Plays back HDMI audio signals on this unit. The
HDMI audio signals input at the HDMI input
jacks of this unit are not output to the HDMI
component connected to the HDMI OUT jack on
the rear panel of this unit.
Other Plays back HDMI audio signals on another
HDMI component connected to the HDMI OUT
jack.
Also on page 14 it shows it does not upconvert. component input to HDMI output.

Don't forget to calibrate the receiver, so your channels are set properly, if you have more ?'s, please use us, we usually have nothing better to do! lol

Do you have the YPAO for your yamaha.. i have the Yamaha RX-V2400 with it and havent used it yet...

How did you set up the system? You either need a calibration CD and a SPL meter or you need to run the YPAO.If you just plugged it all in and started listening to it, you are missing a lot of what it has to offer.

Yeah that is why I haven't used it. I dont have a calibration cd or SPL meter. I know I am missing alot.
