    Running sources through reciever

    Thanks for the help. My line of thinking was that maybe the more circuitry i ran the picture signal through, the greater the chances were that it would get distorted or somehow changed.

    Running sources through reciever

    I have a mid level (500.00) yamaha reciever with video and 3d pass through and mitsubishi wd92840 tv. My question is would it be better to run all of my sources through the reciever from a picture quality stand point. Thanks

    Android through Yamaha RX-V675 Receiver via USB?

    As soon as i unplugged the reciver from the router, my phone and tablet quit dropping the internet signal, and everything works fine. I dont think this router likes to broadcast over wifi and send internet over a cable at the same time.
