Can I plug a blue ray HDMI to an A/V input receiver ? Many thanks.

Yes. As long as the bluray player has a output resolution supported by the conversion box.

Can you hook this unit directly to an HDTV using an HDMI cable but with no receiver?

Most DVD/Blu-Ray players don't have audio video inputs, only outputs. It would have to be a combination Blu-Ray and receiver.

I have 3 components connected to my receiver - An Amazon TV, a Blu-Ray disk player and the Directv receiver - all using HDMI cables. You do need to have the receiver on, but how else would you get that beautiful sound! If your DirecTV receiver doesn't have an HDMI output, you can connect the DirecTV box to the composite video inputs on the front of the receiver and select the V-Aux input on the remote control. You may be able to connect it to one of the composite video inputs on the back, but I didn't try that. I hope that helps. TopCatOnyx

This converter box only allows RCA jacks on the input to go to HDMI output.You probably want some sort of VGA to HDMI converter.Search Amazon for this one QVS HVGA-AS VGA Video/Stereo Audio to HDMI Digital ConverterIt does sound and video.Just video converters are less expensive.Good luck!

I use my blue ray player but there are hdmi cables on the back (2) so I don't know why not unless you fill those connections up.

not possible!...only HDTV with HDMI will work although, you still get decent image.

Huh? This has no HDMI inputs? This is a Blu ray player - kinda pointless w/o at least one HDMI input(?)...or am I missing something?

No, just a 3.5mm input. This definitely isn't something you would use if you want enough quality to use an HDMI cable.

Their is an a/v input, but for what application I don't know. I tried hooking my PS3 to it, but it didn't work

I would also like to know if there is a way to make the IN 2 the default input for the blue ray.

replacing and repairing HDMI connections can be expensive, however Amazon do sell a device the you can connect your HDMI output from blu-ray, DVD and HD BOX, to the projector VGA input. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B006JW6M2I/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 i bought this device and tested on my projector and it worked flawlessly.

I prefer to hook my critical video equipment, especially reference equipment, directly to my monitor. You can use the ARC HDMI to get TV sound out of the Receiver.there 'has' to be 'some' information lost in the translation, imo.

I have a Blue Ray with digital audio output, the video is with HDMI, but I want to connect the audio to an amplifier. It works fine with DVD and Blue Ray disks, but when I want to play a home made CD of music, it distorts with noise. The device will convert your TV output to rca, sure, but I can't tell you if you will hear noise. Is cheap, so you can try.

My system has always been centered around the A/V receiver which handles all the sound. The HDMI output from the A/V receiver goes to my projector. The HDMI cable is only handling video and is not returning sound signals back to the receiver. In my case, the projector acts merely as a monitor. An HDTV can be set up in a similar manner.

You can, but not through an HDMI cable. I had to get these to make it work: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004C4WPXA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00016W75E/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Once I did, it worked like a dream.

No this works the other way around. Look for an HDMI - AV converter...(make sure it has DHCP support)
