My VerizonDVR has both HDMI &amp; component outputs, TV also has both HDMI &amp; component inputs. Will it work to hook HDMI plug into DVR, &amp; component plugs into TV component inputs?

No. These HDMI to component adaptor cords are worthless. HDMI is a digital format and component is an analog format. They are not compatible. You can only use HDMI to HDMI and component to component.

No. The only inputs are the three component inputs, and your choice of spdif inputs (optical or "coax" sound). You'd need some sort of tuner to convert the signal from the coax cable, like a set-top box. There are other devices around that do that, but this isn't one of them. I have a Yamaha stereo receiver with hdmi inputs and one hdmi output. This little device lets me connect an old Panasonic DVR with a component output to the Yamaha, and then just switch devices on the TV with the Yamaha remote (media pc, blu-ray player, DVR).

You should be able to via the feed off of it but you may run in to restrictions via the HDMI signal being encrypted. But if you can already record on your DVR via an HDMI signal, you should be just fine. Reminder: this does not contain any recording equipment inside, it is strictly made for handling antenna and other signals and pushing out via HDMI.

The box doesn't know if you are watching the output from it or not. Thus, you can split the antenna signal with half going to the box and half going to an alternate antenna input on your TV. This way you can watch one show and record another. I don't have this exact box, but I have the HDMI output from the box going into my TV and the (split) antenna signal going in the coax input on the TV. Then by choosing the source: HDMI gets me the box output (whether live or playback), while ANT gives me the live OTA signal. Of course, this works because my TV has a built-in tuner and I am just using the box as a primitive DVR. Since you stated that your TV is newer, it most likely will have a built-in ATSC tuner.

I have Direct TV HD-DVR, 55 inches SONY rear LCD projection HDTV (purchased 6 years ago) and I'm interested in this HTIB. My A/V set up would be like this:1. Connect HD-DVR box to 576 by component(video) and optical audio(audio)2. Connect 576 to LCD TV by HDMI (my TV is old and has only one HDMI input).Questions:1. Will I enjoy the HD-TV and 5.1 digital audio by this set up?2. If yes, does it mean I have to turn on 576 whenever I watch TV?Thanks!

Works for my set up with both audio and video. Receiver output is split into two other components. Both audio and video. Must understand, with my set up, this is NOT HDTV. I never tried to split component for HDTV, so not sure if that would work. Just video and left/right audio.

Yes. I have a Samsung with multiple ways to connect to other devices and the dvr has multiple ways. The dvr also includes some of the wires to do so.

You should check that the component out (three RCA cables for video plus 2 for sound) from the cable box works for all channels (esp premium). Your TV should have a component input so get some RCA cables and go straight from cable box to TV with component and flip through all the channels. If that works you should be good to go. Also note that HD DVR has an "IR Blaster" to send remote signals to the cable box to turn it on and change channels. it all should work fine but can be slightly annoying to setup.

Yes you can, I have one tv monitor with hdmi connection to DVR and computer monitor VGA connection to DVR

This comes with a remote infrared unit that you place in front of the device you want to control from the other room. I use it to control my channel input on my DirecTV receiver. You have to be sure and place it very close to the infrared receiver on your DVR in order for it to work properly. I bought two sets of these things and they work great!

I use it with my DirecTV DVR and it works fine. It's a little complicated (for me) to install and remove, but once done, it works well on my Directv dvr. Hope this helps.

I am not sure what the question is but a HDMI signal is digital and component is analog so the two are not compatible.

You should be able to hook up a standard 3-wire cable to the TV as well. I have a Samsung HDTV, and the connections are set up to be 5 or 3 wire. For example, we had our Wii connected via a 3-wire component cable to the TV, and now we have our 5-wire DVR connected to the component connection.

no problem. Just plug the AV out into the input device red, yellow, and white inputs. Haven't tried the component cable since I use HDMI. Don't know if component works or not.

Yes the cable box normally has another output but typically only one hdmi. You can use the component outs (the red, green, blue).I have comcast hddvr and run the hdmi to my onkyo 805 for dvd, ps3, and other times I want big sound and video experience. I use the direct selection with the component into the hdtv for simplier viewing times.

Yes no problem. I have mine attached to my DVR and send a feed to the kitchen and the family room. I can have one or both tvs on with no issue and the second is attached to a fifty foot hdmi cable. Only problem I have is the hdmi box had an incredibly cheap power plug and is very sensitive to even the slightest movement.

You can plug it into the audio output jack of the TV. When the TV is connected to the DVR and is being used, the TV's audio feeds the TV Ears. However, TV Ears is uncomfortable and unreliable. Get the Sennheiser RS 220 headphones instead--a much better solution.
