I don't think the "digital rights enforcement police" have anything to do with the sound not working on your HDMI->DVI connection. DVI is a strictly video connection, like VGA for a computer (I believe that's what it was created to replace). No audio information is transmitted on a DVI connection, so the audio signals have to take another path.

Yes the receiver will transcode (upconvert/upscale) analog video from the RCA cable and send it to the TV thru the HDMI cable. I have my PS 2 connected to the 910 thru RCA cables and have no problems getting video thru HDMI.You can download the manual at:http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/model-documents.pl?mdl=STRDG910and refer to page 29. I would highly recommend this receiver.

I am interested in buying the Sony STR-DG910. There is so much confusion on all these posts regarding the ability to display/upconvert/upscale analog video from say a VCR or DVD player through the HDMI port. Here is what I have:7 Klipsch speakers and 1 Klipsch sub, 1 Sony Bluray Player BDP-S300, 1 Sony 1080i Tube TV and one old JVC VCR player with RCA audio and video in/out. Both the Bluray and the TV are true HDMI. Is it really correct that the STR-DG910 is capable of playing video from the VCR (RCA connectors)through the HDMI cable to the TV?

HDMI takes precedence over component or RCA inputs. For example if you have HDMI input connected to VIDEO 2 and a component input connected to VIDEO 2 and both sources are turned on, the HDMI input will be output to the TV. Hope this helps.

Most likey not, most computers will prioritise one output over another or have you select what output you want it in. And if the computer doesnt have you select it your tv will. For example "hdmi 1" or hdmi 2." id advise searching "how to set up a 3 output display with laptop" on youtube.

It has 5 seperate inputs but you are not required to use all of them. It will operate using just 1 center channel if your receiver only outputs 1 channel.

Yes there are 6 "S" video inputs. I currently have 3 consoles hooked up to it as well as it's connected to an off-brand blue 3-in-1 input switch and it works great. I haven't tried hooking up 6 systems to it, but I'm sure it would be fine.

The unit takes 1 input to several outputs. Like say you were to hook up a security camera to several monitors. Or for you 1 Video Game to Several Monitors. If you wanted to use Several Video Games to 1 monitor you would want Several Inputs to 1 Output. Just the opposite. Cary

I do not think this is what you are looking for. It won't help with input to the AV receiver. As for the AV output, this would split that signal into two identical signals, and I'm guessing you don't want to put the same signal into both 1 and 2 hdmi inputs on the TV.

Hi, I don't have an answer for your question. I only use 1 input to 2 separate outputs (Tv and projector). Sorry.

this device supports 4 hdmi inputs and two hdmi outputs which can go to any device you want with hdmi inputs. associated with output 1 is a stereo output that works very well. the remote allows you to switch any input to any output. another words if you select channel 2 on each of the two outputs then the same item will appear on both outputs. when switching there can be a brief interruption of the signal while it locks up. the unit works great in all aspects. i would recommend it and get another if the need comes up.

It Outputs on both analog & Digital, but only accepts one input.. So you could output component & HDMI if you really wanted to, but you can not have more then one input type at a time.

Hi Lawrence,This cable has 5 component connections on each end. It cannot connect to a device via HDMI. In order to connect a device with component outputs to a TV with HDMI inputs or vice versa, you would need a converter box. There are cables on the market that claim to connect HDMI to component but they are not reviewed well. Thanks,Mediabridge Customer Support856-216-8222support@mediabridgeproducts.com

The TV has 5 inputs: HDMI(1), HDMI(2), Video, Component, and a serial PC monitor jack. I only use HDMI(1) and HDMI(2). Here's how I have mine setup. All digital (HDMI and optical) audio and video outputs go to my Surround amp which has multiple HDMI, optical and analog inputs. The single HDMI output of my Surround amp goes into HDMI(1) of the TV. Digital output components going into the surround amp are: DVD, Playstation2 (Blue-Ray player), satellite TV receiver, and desktop PC optical audio output. All analog output audio devices (2 CD players, phono turntable, and 6 reel-to-reel tape decks) go into selectable inputs on my analog pre-amp. The single output of the pre-amp then goes to the surround amp as an analog connection. The only thing missing is the HDMI video output of the PC which goes to HDMI(2) of the TV (this allows me to listen to music and use the computer at the same time). I don't know what "Soundbar" is, but if is has digital or analog audio output it will work. The TV is fantastic - - buy it.

This is simply a splitter that duplicate input signal. 4 different "monitor/TV" screens will have the exactly same content. For multiple displays with different content, you need multi-display graphics adapters.

You cannot use this for that purpose; this is an "HDMI splitter", which was built to take one HDMI source and output that to a maximum of 4 HDTV's (like in a sports bar). Because what you want is surround sound from all three devices (and without knowing the type of receiver you have) your options are: - If your Receiver has only one or two HDMI inputs - you will need to add a "HDMI Switch", to accommodate all three devices. - If your Receiver has no HDMI inputs - it is better to get a new Receiver with atleast 3 HDMI inputs. - If your Receiver has three or more HDMI inputs - you are fine, just connect your devices to the Receiver. I hope this helps....

I can't remember if there was two video inputs or one. If two yes, if only one then no, but you can add a video switch input, that makes one input into two, but you will be forced to switch to the one you want to watch.

Yes, with multiple input options HDMI, S-Vid and traditional RCA you will have no problem with set-up. Also passes 3D and 4k video signals without problems. This product is good choice overall. Dan

One for composite and one component input, though they share the same audio input. Also has 3 hdmi inputs as well.

You are only going to be able to run two HDMI cables with this product, also, make sure that the cables you are going to use with this product are in-wall certified... I have noticed a big difference in the quality from using normal HDMI cables... Right now I am running one HDMI cable with two speaker wires and it fits nice. I had one HDMI cable one DVI cable and two speaker wire cables and it was too crowded. Hope that helps ya
