Hi All,
I am a novice to home theater. I have a Yamaha RX-V363 Receiver a Vizio flat screen TV and I'm about to purchase a Blu-Ray player to replace my crappy old DVD player. I have everything connected to the Receiver with HDMI and I have 5 speakers connected to the receiver. Surround sound works fine on some settings of the receiver. I was under the impression that HDMI carried video and audio. However, when we watch anything on TV (playing a DVD or just watching TV) then the sound comes out of the TV speakers when I was hoping it was going to come out of the surround sound speakers.
Can somebody please give me a "Dummies, 101, Crash Course" on how I need to connect things up to maximize my listening pleasure while being able to enjoy the surround sound speakers while watching TV and DVD's?
Thanks in advance,
