gigolo asked:


I have a home theater (with DVD player) and a cable recorder box connected to my HDTV. The home theater is on HDMI-1 and the cable box is connected to Component-2 (video and audio). How do I use my home theater speakers to play the audio when I’m watching cable TV through component-2? What additional wiring connections do I need to make? My cable recorder box also has a HMDI connection capability.

Any answer is appreciated. Thank you!

1) Should I be running seperate cables to the plasma from DVD, Satallite receiver and VCR (I’ve to run component cables from DVD & sat receiver - and composite vedio cable from VCR because thats is what the output of my devices) and audio cables from these devices to Yamaha HTR6050 receiver.
2) The 2nd option is to run component and composite cables from devices to the reciever and then run single cable from Yamaha receiver to plasma TV. My plasma tv has one 29-pin DVI input where as Yahama receiver has 1 HDMI output (I’m assuming I can find HDMI to DVI cable …) In this case I think I’ve to run seperate audio cable from yamaha receiver to TV and then from receiver to home theater speakers.

Has anybody done research on such things earlier? Which option will give me better picture quality? My TV is 50” plasma with native resolution of 1366×768

Thanks a bunch for reply.
