Dear Reb, It depend if your BluRay player have a composite RCA for AV output, then it will work. HDMI can only provide HD AV, NOT analog AV, therefor the 3.5mm plug can only provide analog audio. but an additional 3.5mm to 2xRCA Y-cable required on your Sony TV end. If your BluRay only have HDMI port, than this cable wouldn't work for your applications. Please see link for BluRay back panel details. We hope this have answer your question. http://www.amazon.com/Sony-BDPBX39-Blu-ray-Player-Wi-Fi/dp/B0091VAHIO/ref=sr_1_18?ie=UTF8&qid=1404257822&sr=8-18&keywords=sony+bluray+player

I believe it needs to plug into an "output" source such as your cable box. You then run cables back to your TV through the device. Most AV connections on a TV are "input". There is little to no audio lag. However, you do need to have a fairly unobtrusive line of sight between your blue-tooth headphones and the device. I had place the device on the floor behind the TV in our bedroom and had connectivity issues. I then moved it to the stand the TV is sitting on and it worked like a charm.

Your blue ray player will be connected to your tv via rca cables (usually)your tv will be connected to the sound bar with the digital cable

there is no other audio in or out. i run my blue ray player to my audio receiver through hdmi and then connect my audio receiver to the projector through hdmi.

It depends whether you have a cable set box as part of your set up. Here's a plan if you have a DVR Setbox,a blueray player and your TV. Optical cable from the SBar to the DVR set box; then a HDMI to the SBar from the TV , and a HDMI cable from the Blueray to the SBar. Don't forget to cancel out the speakers in your tv.. This works !!!

yeah but its just a monitor so there will be no sound coming from it. you have to use an external source for the sound. oh for the hdmi you can just buy a $5 adapter from walmart or some other place. disregard my last comment!

Sound comes through any HDMI cable. You don't need a separate cable for audio.The answer is yes.

No, you connect the soundbar to your TV using the digital optical cord and then anything that is plugged into your TV through HDMI will come through the soundbar.

There's no need for a separate audio connection with this receiver. For a nonblu ray source it will accept and process any audio signal over HDMI. For blu ray, you'll need a player that decodes the new formats and outputs PCM.

i connected all of my hdmi devices to the sound bar including the TV which is plugged in to hdmi 1; i also used the digital audio out (optical) connex. All sound/video feeds through just fine. I just switch the input to hdmi port (hdmi 1 for tv, hdmi 2 for dvd/blu ray, hdmi 3 for roku).

connect it to the red and white audio out ports... when connected to these everything connected to the tv can play thru the system, haven't had a single issue

The HDMI (ARC) cable takes the input/output from the blueray player to your TV HDMI (ARC)input/output. The one cable does everything. The cable rating should be "high speed." I got RCA Digital plus cable. My Samsung TV says with the Audio Return Chanel (ARC) enabled, optical input is disabled.If you do not have ARC available on your TV, you have HDMI but not HDMI (ARC), then you would need both types cable, the HDMI and optical. Only the ARC type sends and receives from both units. That's the way I see it!

My blu-ray won't play through my rx565 via hdmi. The connections are good. I put the blu-ray directly to the tv and it was fine. My cable tv signal goes through it fine. I tried different ports to no avail. Is there a programming issue with the yamaha?

Correct. If you want to hook up your own speakers, you have to use audio outs on either your cable box or blu ray player. Keep in mind that the latest models of blu rays dont have component outputs anymore either. There's only one hdmi output on this epson. I just bought an hdmi audio extractor from amazon which allows you to split the hdmi and gives you audio outs for speakers. Havent tried it yet but learned about through other people's reviews.

No but usually that is taken care of by your HDMI cable.But if your entertainment center has HDMI ports then you can have the sound go thru it.

I tried to attach my new Sony BD player to the stereo, and it could not handle the signal. It also does not like my HDMI feed from my $60.00 HDMI card in my PC. However, I feed all my audio from my various devices through it, and they all sound extremely clear. My cable box HDMI works fine through it. I am able to feed all audio back to my PC for audio recording with no problems. It handles my 15+ year old tape and record player inputs very well as well.

Yes, if connecting through HDMI you will get sound through that audio channel.
