SA/Cisco Uverse settop box output?

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Can the SA - Cisco set top box that comes with Uverse output both component & HDMI at the same time?

I have a few channels that have real bad sound distortion when running through any of my Onkyo receivers. The one TV that does not have a receiver & plugs directly into the TV plays those bad stations fine.

What I wanted to do is leave the HDMI lines as they are for most of the stations & run a separate component cable set directly to the TV's bypassing the receiver for those that are having a problem..

Component carries video only.

Meant all 5 wires 3 vid & 2 sound or possibly the 3 vid wires + an optical sound line. Main thing is cutting out the Onkyo for a handful of stations.

I am not familiar with that box but most will not output HDMI and component at the same time. Try just running the audio to the TV. Then just mute the receiver and turn up the volume on the TV.

Tested some connections.I was able to run HDMI to the receiver then to the TV as well as Component/Audio directly from the SA/Cisco box to the TV. Switching from HDMI 1 input coming off the receiver to component input from the CA/Cisco box solves the problem with the channels that had screwed up sound.
