Denon AVR 1912 synchronizing disparate audio and video sources

post #1 of 6
Thread Starter 
So basically I am trying to play video from my Mac / PC laptop that does not have an HDMI out port and connect it to my AVR-1912. I am thinking of using a mini-DVI to HDMI converter and hook the video-out of my laptop into the HDMI in of my receiver. However the audio signal will not get in by this method, so I have to connect the audio output on my laptop (3.5" headphone jack) and hook it to my receiver's L/R aux audio inputs on the front panel.

I now have to figure out a way to get the video (call it HDMI3) and the aux audio inputs to work together. Has anybody figured out a way to configure this? The manual that came with the receiver is horrible in its organization and I cannot figure out a way (if any) to do this.


Alternatively are there any other ideas on how this problem can be solved?

I dont think apple tv helps. I want to know how to configure Denon to accept inputs from 2 different sources (DVI-HDMI and audio) and get them to play at the same time.

You can't do what your asking but apple TV connects to your receiver with HDMI and connects to your mac via wireless card.

I bough a AVR1912 and I did all the connection HDMI as per the owner manuel , blue ray works, tuner works, but cable not working, I have the sound but the image come and go. Why the cable service is not compatible with thisreceiver? Thanks

Try rebooting the cable box by unplugging the electric cord for 10 sec. Try a different HDMI input for the cable box (BD or DVD or game).
