This is my first posting here, and am really glad I found this forum. My media room is my respite from every week travel, and there never seems to be enough time trouble shoot every possible connecction type and hookup, so your help would be greatly appreciated.
I've got a Panasonic TH-50PHW3 Plasma which I've been feeding from my Denon 5803 since I did the orginal configuration and installation. A friend of mine said I'm not taking full advantage of the HD capabilites of the Plasma through the 5803 (upconvert or pass-through). My other components are a Denon 2900 and Mitsubishi HSHD2000U.
I've studied the manuals till I fell asleep for all three components and am stumped by a couple of things:
The Plasma has no DVI or HDMI input, and the 5803 has no input/output for the same. The 2900, has no DVI or HDMI output either for a direct feed to the Plasma. The Mitsubishi on the other hand only has an ieee output, and when I try and play a DVHS tape, it says a ieee connection is required.
The one thing the components all have in common is S-Video, digital audio, and the 2900 has composite which is what I've been feeding to the 5803.
The Panasonic, besides component/RGB and S-Video has PC IN, Tuner IN and Serial connections and that's it.
I also feed the 5803 with a Direct TV Tivo and Hughes HD satelite feed.
What can I do from a connection standpoint to get the DVHS working, and a digital feed to the Plasma from the other components.
Many thanks in advance.
Bill
