I used this to run from a bedroom receiver to another room. It is component, not hdmi, but it works just fine http://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-Component-Transmitter-B136-101/dp/B003UT7TJS

I do not have this unit, but I have noticed the same problem at a Magnolia store. While the Denon units show correct display, the Pioneer would only show the DTS. Never had the chance to really "play" with the unit, but always found that intriguing.

Please correct me if I am wrong.........but you are saying that regardless of the signal that my tv receives, it will process it as 1080P?? I would assume that to be good?

which means what in layman's terms? so is the lack of upconverting by the Pioneer a problem? Should I look for an alternative receiver that will upconvert the hdmi & component signals to 1080P?

Really interested in the Pioneer SC07 receiver, but read that it will only pass thru hdmi sources. In layman's terms..........is this really a serious defect? My tv is a Samsung LN950A with Dish HD, & a blu-ray player.

Panasonic told me to change the audio setting from bitstream to pcm to allow the player to decode instead of the receiver

That is the reason that I went with the 55 over the 35. I really wasn't aiming to purchase a new surrond receiver at this time.

I have this player connected via hdmi to my Samsung 950 tv & to my Pioneer 45 Elite receiver via digital coax cable. The audio is slightly out of sync. Would connecting via component resolve this? I don't think the Pioneer receiver has an audio delay feature. I did not have this problem when I...

Which is the better unit - the Samsung or the Panasonic?

I want to purchase a blu-ray player to connect to my Samsung LCD tv. At this time, my receiver is a Pioneer Elite 45, which I will be upgrading in the future. I guess I have 2 situations that I need answers before & after I upgrade the receiver. I am considering the Panasonic 35 & 55 and the...

Dish is also rolling out a new program that should become available late this month. It is called Eastern Arc. This simple means that the programmin will be coming from 61.5 72 & 77 instead of 110 & 119. All of this programming will be mpeg4 and the customer will have to use the vip series of...

I don't think the problem is with the set. Experienced the same problems locally on ota channels. During episodes of Lost, the sync was so bad you could watch the show. Had to change to the analog version, where it was ok.

Yes I know it would be better, but it's not better if all I get is a black screen with sound

Satellite to Samsung via svideo. Samsung to tv via rf. This setup would capture the audio, but not video. If I started watching through the dvd recorder, it would record, but not with timer recording. I have since switched the connection from the satellite receiver to the Samsung to composite &...

I have a Samsung VR-325 & have tried to record a couple of movies this weekend since Dish network was offering HBO free. When I set up a timer recording, I got the sound but no picture, but when I just recorded without out setting the timer, everything was fine. Why the different results?
