To use AV addressee or not to use AV addressee for unconverting.?
This is what I enjoy:
1. HDTV (1080p) - 2 HDMI (in), 1 HDMI (out)
2. Upconverting DVD player (1080i) - HDMI
3. Comcast HDTV digital DVR cable box .
4. PC with VGA clear connector.
5. 6 speakers (front, rear, center + subwoofer)
6. Looking to buy a AV addressee (mine just cooked)
I am thinking of connecting DVR, DVD to TV beside HDMI, PC to TV with VGA, nouns from PC to TV via analog cables, after export the sound to beneficiary with an optical chain.
Question:
All the new AV receiver has upconverting capability, and multiple HDMIs. It seens that it is more 'fashionable' to connect everything to the AV receiver after just single HDMI to your HDTV.
What is the difference between my scenario and the everything to AV heir then single HDMI to TV?
What are the pros and cons?
Thanks for helping
Answers: The difference is cable.
HDMI can carry DD to the AV beneficiary, but if you connect directly to the TV, you also need to connect separate coax/optical s/pdif from the source to the AV heir for multi-channel audio.
Some TVs will NOT pass-through DD over HDMI, but some will do. So, check your TVs user guide and specs very thinly.
If you go via the AV beneficiary even for video, you may have smaller amount lip-sync issues.
However, skip the upconversion on the receiver, unless you know it is really suitable!! Let the TV do the video processing.
It's basically 6 on the one and one partially dozen on
the other. Whichever configuration you are most
happy near. Convenience is bliss if the difference
in ceremonial is trivial.
