what is the possibility of transmitting video from a Sony HD handycam which supports both hdmi &amp; component video outputs? does the receiver has a component/hdmi video output?

The ARIES has multiple HDMI inputs and multiple component (RCA) inputs. Py Pb Y plus stereo audio. If your Handycam has those outputs, it should work.

I wonder whether the component video cable might be the key. Perhaps the user who had problems was using a composite cable instead. I'm about to order this receiver and try it with my component cable.

You can't convert to HDMI from component. You need a HDMI output to HDMI input. Buy a new source unit. Oh, only use Revision 1.4 HDMI Cables to support 3D speed.

With this guy, you must switch inputs on TV, receiver doesn't convert component to HDMI signal. From receiver you will have 2 sets of wires to TV: HDMI for HDDVD

Okay, I just connected it via HDMI. Big improvement. I don't understand why. I have a 720P TV and I thought component gives 720. But the HDMI really made a difference.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.

Several years ago (2010?) HDCP became mandatory for player output of HD video and that requires HDMI. Therefore, no relatively recent BD player can do what you want. The only solution would be an external box that supports HDMI w/HDCP and outputs RGB. I suggest you go to a forum such as "AVS Forum" and ask for advice in the CRT projector sub-forum. Those guys have/had to deal with the same issue.PS. There used to be a converter box available from the Far East that was referred to as a "Moome" box, don't know whether it's still available or if there's something else. Several years ago (2010?)

Ok...so...there is no simple answer to this question. If you just take this out of the box and expect a "live stream" setting of some sort you won't find one. But it is very possible to use this camera for this. First, a Google search DID turn results. So, if you need specifics, there's your starting place. This camera has an hdmi jack, so whatever you're recording can be broadcast to an external video display (a TV or a piece of equipment which streams it live over the Internet- like a capture or video card attached to a computer or some standalone equipment I'm sure exists). I don't know if that hdmi sends sound too. However, there are alternate hookups available. There is a yellow audio/video output for component cables. The Internet says this can be used for either audio out for headphones or for video out. But apparently not for both at the same time. Either way, there's people rigging this up successfully. Search around and be prepared for some adapters, software, and possibly hardware. There's no built in video server or anything fancy. Not sure if any cameras in the world have that. So, I think the appropriate answer is that this camera does everything that all other cameras do really, and seems to stream live rather than just play recorded over externals. Not sure if sound will come from one hookup or from multiple jacks/cords.

I have not tried to do this myself, but from I understand about HDMI you should get the 1080p video. The Sony receiver should pass through the video.

Most likely not, since you handycam probably has a USB mini, or even worse, one of Sony s own mini USB version. You would need an XLR to a mini USB, if it exists.

If you Canon is capable of sending digital HD output through HD-SDI connection; and your monitor/recorder accept hdmi input then this is for you. As far as yes or no, there's not enough information provided to be absolute.

yes, it has composite video(rca cable), super video in/output and component video output. it lacks the hdmi input. your hd tv had all this inputsthat you can connect to the dvd recorder. If you connect your HD TV to the Component Video Out of the Recorder you'll get HD 720P (3 WIRE RED,GREEN,& BLUE RCA PLUG) it's the second best Video signal to HDMI 1080P HD.

Cannot answer your question but here is what I have found. First, I do NOT used the HDMI plug as I connect the Ematic to an analog TV. Videos in the "avi" format will not play in that setup but the "mp4" format and the "mpg" format will (the "mpg" format is what my Sony video recorder provides).

No. From looking at the STR-DG920 documentation (downloaded from the support section of www.sonystyle.com), the receiver upconverts everything to HDMI and also upconverts composite video sources to component, but HDMI sources are *not* downconverted to component or composite. (I've yet to see any A/V receivers that downconvert from HDMI to component.)

Thanks Mark. I have since noticed that the owner's manual for what I think is a predecessor camera (Sony HDR-HC1) is available on amazon. It says that that camera can transfer images recorded in HD to a camcorder or other firewire compatible device that records in SD and convert the images to SD. Assuming that's true for this HD3 as well, then even if my computer and TV are not up to HD editing, I could convert the images using my existing camcorder and edit the SD version, while preserving the HD originals for the day my computer and TV can handle them. I have a son who's growing up fast and I'm eager to start capturing images in HD. Any idea whether a 1080p camera is around the corner? Thanks Mark.

I tested this with the HDMI connection. The owners manual, available publicly on the Philips site, indicates that the choice of upscaling format is available only on an HDMI connection, so I did not bother trying with component video. It seems component video supports only 480i/480p, or 576p to a PAL TV. The manual also indicates support for HDMI connections to DVI devices that support HDCP; I don't have such a device so I have not verified this. I hope shortly to have a 1080p TV to verify its behavior there.Thanks for the question. Although I saw it mentioned in a review or another forum question that upscaling was available only on HDMI, I realised after I wrote earlier that I should have included this detail.

I haven't tried taking live output through hdmi, but all of the videos I have recorded are clean with no screen menus or time stamp. That seems to be the default, so as far as I know the answer is yes.
