Cable TV through receiver? But now it turns out that that input is reserved for FM radio?

I had the exact same problem. I got my son-in-law a 607 and hooked up surround sound in his home. You get analog cable like my son-in-law. He gets his cable without a box from Armed Forces Network. To run the cable through the 607, you need to convert the coax to an RCA (red, white, yellow). The only way you can do this is to run the cable into a VCR, run the the VCR RCA outputs into the ONKYO say "TV" input and use the VCR's tuner to change channels or program the Onkyo's remote to access the VCR. I tried everything, the analog-to-digital cable boxes will only pass analog cable through the cable output, not through the RCA outputs.

Exactly! At first, I wanted to control the HDMI devices thru my TV but shortly realized I couldn't see the program options. You will switch between HDMI devices thru the receiver. Kinda simplifies things a bit.

Also check tv settings. Is it digital or analog audio? My tv has digital input that needed a converter. I used old minidisc recorder. There is also standalone converters for around $80 iirc.

If you're referring to a coaxial connection, there is a coaxial input on the bar. I haven't tried to connect directly to a cable box, it would make more sense if you were to connect it to your TV but I probably don't fully understand what you're trying to accomplish.

This for over air digital converter only and will not work with scrambled cable signals

This is not a tv tunner/receiver, this is a micro computer, the included hdmi cable is used to plug the raspberry to a monitor in order to work with the graphical interface, so technically, you don't get any channel, and no, it can't be hooked to a cable company. If you want to use it play multimedia, you can do it from a usb drive or playing on line media. Cheers :)

Yep. Just plug it into your computer, then find an empty rca input on your receiver like "aux" and choose that channel on the receiver. Super easy

The receiver needs to be switched to the appropriate input source. The manual CD covers this in detail.

Don't know. I live so far out in the boonies our cable is analog. I run it directly to the TV and run the TV sound to the receiver. Sorry.

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?

I have mine hooked up to cable. I need to move in the included antenna to receive good radio reception.

There is only one component/composite input, one RF coaxial cable input, and two hdmi inputs(side/rear). I run all my devices through a A/V receiver with the hdmi. There is an optical audio out as well.

is your tv digitall? if not you need a digital convertor then plug the antenna unto it.

Well, I just ordered a coaxil cable two-way splitter (listen to the techie here, lol!) The guy at Best Buy told me to somehow get the antenna hooked into the recorder/player AND the tv. He said we didn't need that channel 3. Wish me luck. I just may have something. I'll let you know! - Linda

As long as the old receiver has an RCA output (the red and white colored cables/jacks) you can hook it up to play FM.

you might need an rca Y adapter for both channels if you want to get best usage ... check if you are plugged into the audio output of the TV or the audio output of the cable box would be better

No, this box only modulates an input onto a selected CATV channel. You need something else to transmit over the air.
