You'll be able to do exactly what you want with this unit 3d is excellent. The only knock is the unit must be close to the displays.

No, Hdmi 1 and 2 are inputs only to the monitor, they are not out put drivers.

I ran into the issue of my Yamaha receiver not being 3D compatible. I had to run the HDMI directly to the projector and use a fiber optic cable from the player to the receiver for the sound. However, I have a 7.1 system and fiber optics only supports 5.1 so I am going to get a passive splitter that supports 3D to send an HDMI signal to both devices. If you don't have a receiver, you will need to get one if you want to get sound out to external speakers as there is no pass through on this device.

I was considering these as well. Interested to see what others post. Here is my research has yielded for 7.1 systems with Dolby True HD and DTS HD audio. A lot of people worry about upscaling, I only have blu ray player, so not much need for upscaling. Few do upscaling very well according to my research. Sony STR-DN1000: Nice HDMI connectivity, cleaner look, 100 watts per channel at 1% THD. I've heard upconversion is poor. $330 Sony STR-DH800: Does not upconvert analog sources. 100 watts per channel at 1% THD $250 Onkyo RC-160: Upconverts only to 1080i. 80 watts per channel at .08% THD $330 Onkyo SR-607: Upconverts to 1080p with okay quality, 90 watts at .08% THD $400 Pioneer VSX-919AH-K: .05% THD at 120 watts per channel, just 3 HDMI inputs, no upscaling capability $400 I realize these are Audio/Video Receivers, but it seems to me the main goal of most of them is for superior audio. After all, many TVs do a decent job making SD sources look better, even if you have to run an additional cable or two. To me, everything is going to be HDMI based, so I am leaning toward the Pioneer due to better power and less THD. $400 is very much on the high side of my budget. So if I decide to go with a cheaper receiver, I'll probably go with the Sony STR-DH800.

I have my home theater setup so the output from the home theater which includes my 2d blu-ray player, xbox 360, cable box, and an hd dvd player, all passes thru my 3d-bee converter before going to the 3d tv hdmi. the 3d converter is between the home theater and the 3d tv. My 3d-blu-ray player has 2 hdmi outputs. I hook one directly to the 3d tv, the other to the home theater (for sound only). Everything works perfectly. even netflix in 3d from the 2d blu-ray player.. hope this helps.

Yes, it takes up two spots. You'll be good up to 1080p. No way are you running anything in UHD with this card.

Spec sheet doesn't specify which version of 4K HDMI Video output/up scaler - probably a question best posed to Sony.

Hey my Friend, Thanks for your imput. Just want to get a clear understanding about HDMI and Composite connection differences. My HDTV is 3 years old with composite only connection. Will HD DVD give me 1080i reception capabilty. I now have the Dish 622 reciever and get HD quality no problem. Simply put does the Toshiba HD-A1 HDDVD player have composite connections along with HDMI. Hope I've made myself clear enough. Thanks Much ... RD

The newer STR-DH510 does not upconvert non-HDMI or non-HD signals, so I assume this one does not either. The STR-DH720 does upconvert to 1080i, and I assume more expensive models do as well. Hope it helps (you and others)

I solved this. There is no upscaling of HDMI, thats they way it should be. I solved this for older SD DVDS that I play on my blue ray like this, I hooked up a second set of connections and when its old DVDs I switch the receiver to DVD instead of blueray and the upscaler makes them look very much better than just normal DVDs. When I say switch I mean just like you switch the receiver from one component to another its that simple. I am really liking my investment with this receiver.

Hey all - hate to break this to ya, but I just tried it out on my 3d setup, and this receiver doesn't seem to pass through at all - I've tried it with DirecTV 3d channels, and with my PS3, and if I connect directly to the TV HDMI, it works just fine, but going through the receiver, as soon as I try and view 3d content, there is no dice. Kind of annoyed here, since I bought this receiver about 1.5 years ago, and it looks like now I'll either have to go through the painful process of hooking up 3d devices directly to the TV, or buy a new 3d capable receiver - poop! :( Well - good luck - hope you folks have better luck than I did :(

Yes, you just switch it to 2d on your tv, looks amazing in 2d as well, was watching this yesterday and tested it.

What are you using it for? I love my HD66, had for almost 2 years. I have no 3-D adapter (wife get's sick) so for Blue ray movies (Awesome), PS3, Wii all connected through HDMI perfect for me. Works with light leaks in my living room on sunny days. I have also taken outside for "drive in" movie night;) I did lots of reviews and worth the money.

It depends on the game. Basically HDMI today can only carry up to 4K at 30Hz. Only HDMI 2.0 will allow higher frame rates, which almost no device on the market supports today.If your game is say 1080p60 it will not be upscaled to 4K, it will get some nice quality enhancements though.I your game is say 1080p30, then it WILL be upscaled to 4K.Not all games run at the same resolution / frame rate.

HDMI 3D is not supported, for regular 1080p you may have to recycle through a couple of other inputs, such as radio, and return to the input you desire. [Internal circuitry of electronic switches tent to "hang" on occasion] Good luck.

The HDTV has an option to turn on 3D, and by default is in 2D. To answer your question, yes you can use it for 2D only.

L. Go is correct. You will not be able to use the HDMI connection if your TV is not HDCP compliant. Note also that the 980H, like almost every other player, will not upconvert copy-protected discs over component video connections. This means that pretty much any legally purchased DVD will be limited to 480p over component.Your best option (for optimal picture quality) is to find a used Oppo DV-970HD and utilize a fairly simple firmware hack that will allow it to upconvert to 1080i over component video (google "970HD component hack" for more details). The 970HD is one of very few DVD players that is capable of allowing this form of upconversion. L. Go is correct. You will not be able to use the HDMI connection if your TV is not HDCP compliant.
