I am purchasing a wd media drive, and am hooking it up to an onkyo receiver that does not have hdmi inputs. It does have component and opticl. Wil this present a problem? Regds, Dave

I'm running S/PDIF (Optical) out to my Yamaha and it works great. It will just pass the DTS or DD signal straight out for decoding.


Sometimes, if I leave the 2 channel audio in, I'll also get audio through the HDMI to my TV. Adds a strange 'reverb' effect so I have to mute the TV.

Roger that. So it will work like that, hdmi to the tv and optical to the amp. Cool thanks, Dave
