Hello all

I am the proud owner of a new Onkyo 805 that I installed last week and have everything setup on it apart from a couple of components and wondered if you guys can suggest a way of hooking it up to the Onkyo.

First I have a Viewsat Satellite Receiver with only one set of outputs being a component and its currently hooked up to the TV direct, any ideas how I can hook this to my amp whilst also having it go direct to the TV?

Same issue with my PC (media center) which is also stuffed under the TV, I have a DVI to HDMI cable that goes direct to the TV and again I would like to split it so it goes to the amp too, has separate audio cables going to the TV from the PC.

Anyone have any ideas of how I can deal with this?

Thanks all

Stu

should be very simple. Run thedvi to hdmi wire to one of your in's on the hdmi part. Run the component on the component one on the amp. Then run one hdmi out from the amp to the tv should be it at least with any receiver ive used. good luck.
