Hi Guys,
3 yrs ago started putting together a little system.....got as far as getting a Pioneer Elite VSX-82TXS, Oppo 970, and speakers. Priorities changed and put things on hold for a long time. Well last night I just picked up a new Sony 40v5100 LCD and Ps3 Slim. Most of the time I can figure this stuff out, but I have been reading online and studying my manuals for hours and my brain is fried.
Here is what I need to know: I have an HDMI cable running from the HDMI out on my receiver into the HDMI in on the tv. To get the sound from the tv to go through the receiver do I still need to run an audio out connection from the tv to the receiver or does the audio run both ways through HDMI?
I have the PS3 connected by HDMI to the HDMI in connection on the receiver. The PS3 shows up on the tv, but the audio is only through the tv speakers.
I am not sure if I have the wires correct and just the receiver set up wrong or what.
In the receivers manual it states:
"set the HDMI parameter in to THROUGH if you want to hear HDMI audio output from your TV or plasma display(no sound will be heard from this receiver)."
Does this setting make the receiver only a pass through? Maybe someone with this receiver can help.
Thanks,
Joel
