Ok, it is the holiday's and I think I have officially gone mad!:eek:
But I have a question regarding HDMI (I have other questions regarding my setup, but I will save those for another area on the forum).

When hooking up an HDMI cable from a source (i.e. cable box, xbox, dvd player) to a tv, that is solely for VIDEO signal correct? Or does that cover audio as well?

I am getting a new tv and dvd player, but keeping my older 5.1 yamaha receiver w/o HDMI, and I am trying to find the highest quality and at the same time easiest set up.

Thanks for puttin up with the stupidity

1st of all, u're probably not stupid:confused:, get off that now. maybe uninformed, but thats why you're here. to get informed!:cool: like most of the rest of us.

2nd, hdmi is designed to carry both video and audio but if u want to keep and use old receiver, run dig. audio (or analog) from source(s) to receiver and just use hdmi for video.

there is a LOT of info on what u need to know, here at avs. learn to use the search functions on this site and many questions u have will be answered.
