Do I need to buy a new HDMI cable with this? Do I need to buy a third HDMI cable to connect my TV to the receiver?

Yes, each piece of hardware requires it's own hdmi cable to go into the receiver (hdmi ports marked "In 1, In 2, In 3"), and then you need a third hdmi cable to go from the hdmi "out" port of the receiver, to the TV.

That's strange, so it says 3 HDMI outputs but really that's not true huh? Is there such a thing as a receiver that actually as 3 outputs for video as this would imply? Seems like false advertising if it's not true.

You will also need a HDMI cable to plug into this. Once you have that, it works great. I bought this and the cable from the same place. Good price and excellent service.

I don't have a home theater receiver but I suspect it needs a direct connection to the HDMI port on the TV unless there is a pass through function on the receiver. Try asking a question about hooking HDMI to the receiver you have for a better answer. Good luck!

Make sure your: 1) Cables are plug in and secure from the tv to the receiver. (RCA, HDMI, Coax..etc) 2) You pressed the right command Aux, tv, dvd..etc from the receiver. You might have tried all this but from here its all i can advised you.Me personally have a HDMI and Coax cable hooked from the receiver to my TV and it sound great.

NO, as far as I remember I didnt come with the HDMI cable, which I suggest you to buy. I bought this together with two HDMI cables and one Optical, in order to connect my PS3 and other devices, but the minimum necesary for HD picture is one (1) HDMI cable.

I believe you need hdmi to coaxial converter, this will take older device and make signal into hdmi for a new tv

what receiver model do you have? The newest one does not show RGB output, only VGA, HDMI and the modern modes. If your receiver has an RGB output, then it should work. Check your cable connections make sure they are tight, and color codes matching.

Actually you will need 3 hdmi cables. One with computer input and 2 others out to 2hdmi monitors. I would not buy splitter cables (one side with 2 hdmi out) because they usually do not work as well.

No need for additional receiver. It output video ntsc signal and as long as your TV can accept that you should be fine.

No if you want to go from the three color to hdmi you need a conveter box. I found it on amazon too

any cheap HDMI cable offered from Amazon will do. I bought this TV in early October (from Amazon) and also purchased 2 - $5 dollar cables (also from Amazon). You do NOT need the fancy HDMI cables that cost $100+. For a little reference, advice, see this site, (CNET). http://reviews.cnet.com/hdmi-guide/?tag=pm (i don't work for Cnet or Amazon or any of the vendors, i was in the exact same position as you, and made the mistake once of buying expensive cables. never again, there is no difference in the picture, and my bluray is connected to this tv via a $5 HDMI cable thats 12 feet long. Monster cables that long would run near $200, and it just is not worth the money)

If you have a Satellite receiver OR a cable receiver, either should have an HDMI, Digital Audio, or RCA type cable OUTPUT. Use the appropriate cable and plug that into the appropriate INPUT on the back of the receiver. If you DO NOT have your TV connected to anything other than an (antenna) then see what type of OUTPUT the TV supports, and match it up to the back of the receiver. If you DO NOT have any outputs from the back of the TV you'll need to get a new TV.

So if I want to watch TV the receiver must be turned on? How can I hook up the cables so the TV and it's speakers work with the cable, and the extra speakers work only when the receiver is turned on?

You can use a TOSLINK cable to get your sound from your receiver, that is IF your antiquated receiver is capable doing such. Many modern receivers can actually play the video and the sound through the HDMI cable.

To the best of my knowledge HDMI cables should be backwards compatible, it'd be weird if it wasn't. Is everything else plugged in and connected properly, right TV input etc... Do you have any other HDMI cables to try out?

What are you connecting the TV to? You'll need a HDMI cable for each one. My cable company included an HDMI cable with my box without additional charge. It works fine. I think it's 6' long. You might want to talk to your cable or satellite provider to see if they can give you one. If you have a DVD/Blue ray player that has an HDMI output then you'll need to get another cable for that. Check the back to make sure it has an HDMI jack first. Models over a year or so old may only have component inputs. A 6 foot cable should work fine. HDMI is so easy...one cable to connect to the TV and they only fit in one way.
