Zero HDMI inputs? Really?

Hopefully your TV is 3 or 4 HDMI inputs to handle connections for your DVR and game systems. Output the audio from your TV to the HTIB and you're all set.

Well for me the input came in useful as I have 3 devices HDMI compatible and only 2 HDMI inputs on my set. I have my DVR cable box connected to the Samsung receiver via HDMI and the Samsung receiver going to the TV via HDMI. Then I have my PS3 using the other HDMI. And that's what it is all about really. Without the input on the back, I wouldn't have enough inputs to connect everything HDMI.

First, let me wish you "good luck" setting this thing up correctly. I have been using it for a couple of years and I am still trying to understand the "features" vs settings per the manual. I do believe the default for HDMI connections is PCM. I have also found through the "Audio Parameter" screens that there is a "Fixed PCM" setting which can be set as on our off through the Audio Parameter screens. I would suggest turning that off and go from there. Again, good luck!

I think Larry is spot on. If you have another HDMI handy, swap that in there. if it still persists, return it for another converter box.

Does your HDTV have a VGA input? If like mine yours doesn't, then you're out of luck.

If you mean HDMI, yes, it does have one input. I had it only a short time, so I don't remember the other inputs, but I think you can download the manual.

Why would you think for a second that this receiver has HDMI inputs? It doesn't say that it does anywhere in the description and the rear panel pictures do not show HDMI inputs. Be angry it doesn't toast your bread, it doesn't claim to either.

There is a hdmi input, but no output. I use a home theater system with amp and only send the video to the projector

This is one way. It has 3 inputs (for your HDMI devices) and one output (goes to your TV, A/V Receiver, etc). They can't do what you stated.

This is a common situation and by now you've solved it but seeing that your post is dated 9/15/08, I'll give you the solution for the benefit of others who may need it. HDMI switchers (commonly 4 input, 1 out) are available for less than $50 and some of them are auto-sensing/manual units and others even have remote controls. it's a matter of preference. They all do the same job which is to allow more than one device to be connected to a display with only one HDMI input. Don't get suckered into paying too much for one because, just like cables (especially 'printer' cables), it's not necessary to spend a small fortune for them. There are poor quality as well as great quality ones out there and if you buy from a reputable dealer you'll be able to return it if doesn't work properly.

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

Sounds silly but are you sure you have the tv set to the proper input setting? (my tv has 4 hdmi inputs) wish I could be more helpful

Then don't buy this. You want the opposite conversion - search for an hdmi to component input cable/adapter.

I have this, it is an HDMI output, so you can show the picture on another TV. It is not an input.

Hello,Thank you for asking. There should say HDMI next to the inputs where the cable should be plugged in. We hope this helps. If there is anything else we can do for you, please let us know.Regards,Abacus

Depending on your setup, this is incorrect.If you have an HDMI cable out to your TV, any input signal is getting upconverted. That means if you have a composite cable at 480i going in, it's getting sent at the highest possible conversion. Of course, there's only so much you can do with a 480i signal, so it doesn't look all that much better - but yes, there is upconversion happening.
