These cables support 7.1 audio from pc to tv. You just need to make sure you change the audio output in windows after connecting the cable.

This doesnt include sound so what i did is bought an av audio cable plugged the the audio jack to my pc, the red and white on the back of the tv, but in your case you should plug them in your home theater.

I have this receiver and wanted to let you know that on this model the HDMI ports are ONLY FOR Video. You need to use an optical cable to get at least 5.1 sound. The advantage of HDMI is that the audio and video signals are on the same cable. I don't know why it doesn't work like that on this one? It is not the top of the line so the newer ones probably have it. I think the norm now is 7.1 or 7.2 channels. It is a good receiver though. I don't even have a subwoofer hooked up to it and it still sounds good. I hope that helps you out. You can plug an optical cable from the tv to the receiver but it might be only 2 channel surround sound. I use that setup for my roku 3 I hope this helps.

I have used this to go from laptop or desktop (windows OS) VGA port on the pc [that has a video card which supports digital output] to an HDMI input port on Televisions, to get video only. I had to use a separate Y audio cable to get sound from the pc to the TV. Using the projector setting on your pc you will see it on the TV, just check the TV for input, my Mother has DynxxTV and sets it to VGA input, my friend he has to put it on HDMI2 another says their TV has a PC input, so check your TV or Monitor manual.

Hello Mark, Thank you for your interest in Emotiva. Your AV receiver needs analog pre-outs in order to connect an external amplifier. The MRCA cable will only support two channels. If you are wanting to connect a multichannel amplifier for home theater we recommend the 7 RCA to 7 RCA cable as it will have all channels in a single cable. Thank you for your consideration!

It says up to XP but we use this cable on our windows 7 pc. I am 99.9% postive it will work for what you need. However does your HP printer have a parallel port?

If you have an "old" reciever that uses RCA inputs you will need a NeweR reciever that utilizs a HDMI cable. I said the same thing, then bought a newer reciver 3 years ago . hope this helps.

if sound sys has rca out or in....???? PC in or out... must pass through what your are trying to do, but quality won't be high Price is reasonable to try... My denon receiver is good at passing through rca or HDMI. USB may need to be 3.0 or higher...

Hi. I believe that you may need to purchase an adapter for your PC to be able to connect the yamaha receiver because most of the PC desktop especially the old ones don't have an audio input. You can contact the manufacturer to ask for any suggestion on what you can get for your PC. thanks

Bought mine for the other way around - PC graphics card had HDMI and I wanted to connect to an old VGA monitor. It worked but it may not work for PC VGA out to TV HDMI in. I reference the product description where it says "HDMI to VGA / RCA cable is designed to connect and transfer signals from HDMI port to VGA / RCA port". It doesn't specifically call out a reverse capability. It's so cheap however and has free shipping that you could take a chance and find our for yourself.

Very tough call to make. I can't comment on the Yamaha 465 as I haven't used it. I've looked at its info on Yamaha's site and it doesn't seem to indicate pass-through only for its HDMI, which means it may support audio through HDMI, too. But as they say, specs are subject to change without notice. I do have the Onkyo TX-SR507 receiver and it DOES support audio through HDMI as well. I've read a few reports saying that the Onkyo receiver will work great with Bose, Polk, and Yamaha speakers. I'm actually using Yamaha NS-SP1800 5.1 Speaker system that I bought off of Tigerdirect.com for only $119, and to be honest, they rival my parents Bose home theater system. They have an old analog one since they don't have HD. I'm the only one in my family with HD gear, lol! Score one for the kids. I've actually done a lot of research, even Consumer Reports, to find my receivers. Whenever you do receiver shopping, ALWAYS STAY AWAY FROM RECEIVERS THAT HAVE ONLY HDMI PASS-THROUGH if you want your audio going through HDMI. Hope this helps. Good luck.

A TV is needed as I had the same question as you do, but you do need a PC monitor with built-in or separate speakers as well as the proper A/V inputs, like HDMI or the regular 25-pin (typical regular monitor) and a 3.5mm (stereo type) for your audio signals from the TV box. I am using a HP LCD 21" monitor with HDMI and RCA inputs at the back. After these A/V cables are connected you end up with an Android OS computer with a big screen monitor that look like a TV but works as a computer with (wired or wireless) USB keyboard and/or USB mouse plugged into the TV box and remote console all work at the same time for on-screen programming and other selections.

This is a DVI cable. This connects a PC to a DVI monitor. It does not carry an audio signal like HDMI. If you are using a monitor/TV with built in speakers and want to use them, you will need an appropriate audio connection.

15 April 2014 2pmIf your PC's AUDIO OUTPUT is a Fiber optic connector then this will work because its INPUT is fiber 0ptic connector and its OUTPUTS are RCA L and R.

Anyone who would ask this question should not be tinkering with the insides of their computer. OK, I got lured in by Martin's comments about 7.1 sound. First off, get some local help. Not going to explain what coaxial is. Yes your recvr has two coaxial inputs so this card is applicable. See my post attesting to 5.1 sound, & curious whether 7.1 works also. Put a blue ray disk in your blue ray computer player, & find out. Thank us for the help by publishing your results.

yes this cable with allow you to connect your pc to your monitor but dvi does not carry an audio signal. you'll have to plug speakers into the computer tower's audio output jack.

I am not sure that I am techie enuff to give an answer, but you can find an answer by going on GOOGLE. It relates on internet & Wi-Fi standards. The HDMI cable allows me to make one cable connection that carries both sound & picture from computer to HDTV. Before HDMI, you would have to connect two cables (one for sound, one for picture). You have to be sure that the two units you are connecting have HDMI ports... older units do not. Be sure that the HDMI cables are correctly sized. There is the most common full size HDMI, but they also make a mini-HDMI cable. I made a technical snafu when I purchased the cable (I didn't measure the cable length I needed correctly). Obviously had to buy another cable in proper length.
