So this has older 5.1 audio RCA outputs (one jack for FR, FC, FL, RR & RL)? I have an older audio receiver that does not support HDMI. Thanks!

I would search online under "iView 105HD 1080p 5.1 Channel DVD Player user's guide" or "iView 105HD 1080p 5.1 Channel DVD Player owner's manual". That way you won't lose anything in interpretation or opinion.

That's what I use, the RCA cable, I don't use HDMI. It has all what you want and even more things in the back.

As they say, a picture's worth a thousand words... just put one up for you.

Yes, outputs for six (6) RCA cables (all you listed + subwoofer) to carry analog 5.1 sound. Not sure why they don't post a picture of the back of this item, as these specific outputs were one of the reasons we bought it. It works great with our old receiver.

It only has RCA jacks for L-R audio. There are no audio outputs for Dolby 5.1; no optical output for audio either.

Here's the deal: Apparently most tvs will downgrade the signal from the hdmi into 2.1 so if you use an optical audio out from the tv to the receiver it is transmitting the 2.1 signal to the receiver so you won't be getting the 5.1 dolby digital surround. I've been doing research on this for my upcoming surround sound system purchase and checked it out. If it still sounds ok to you then stick with it if you want. If you'd rather have true 5.1 then you need to run individual optical audio cables to the receiver from the sources. Hope this helps.

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.

"Does the AUX input include the red and white L/R input" I just looked at this unit at Costco (I don't own one) and the answer is yes. It has two cables feeding from the rear: one USB cable and one standard RCA cable, like you mention. What's strange is a lot of posts about this product say it has a minijack cable only and no USB or RCA, however I just saw with my own two eyes the USB and RCA cables. They must've updated the model. And, yes, the model I saw was the LP2D, which is how I ended up here reading reviews for the product. Just make sure you can return if they send you the older model.

It depends. The 5.1 is a bit of a strange deal, but it definitely did what I wanted it to do, and that was provide 5.1 audio from HDMI to Optical into my old 5.1 receiver that only had Optical in and no HDMI. The trick is that it doesn't do Linear PCM or any uncompressed 5.1 sound. However, compressed audio like Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS 5.1 work perfectly. Depending on the Sonos's settings, you should be able to get 5.1 through to it using this switch

Short answer ... no. It merely strips what you would normally hear on the Left and Right audio channels and passes the signal through analog RCA cables. But to be fair, I'm not sure than anything really can. By definition, 5.1 and 7.1 are delivered over something greater than two channels. So a simple two-channel L/R signal simply isn't capable of carrying the content. There are devices that take two-channel audio as input and simulate 5.1 output, but this isn't one of them. I have such a whizbang gizmo connected to a 47" display in a small room with just two very good speakers. It's not "real" 5.1, and if you're a real audiophile type, you'll likely recognize it right away and turn up your nose. However, it does work well enough to fool you during an exceptionally well mastered Blu-Ray or a high-end video game. Suited my needs because 2 speakers were a better fit for both the room and my budget. But if you're looking to get full performance out of a 5.1 or 7.1 setup that you already own or are considering purchasing, inserting this device in the chain is probably the wrong way to go about things. You'll need to stick with HDMI throughout to create the best experience.

I did not check but http://store.sony.com/ shows as follows: RCA Audio Output(s) : Front, Rear, and Subwoofer RCA pre-amp outputs

Yes! 5.1 still works fine, I haven't tested 7.1 but I expect the original audio stream is passed straight through so anything that works over HDMI should work through the box.

Yes, that is what I use it for. My setup is from Raspberry Pi HDMI Out to AGPTek, then from AGPTek to my TV and APGTek to my receiver. This allows me to have 5.1 surround sound on my receiver.

Turning surround 5.1 to stereo work great. I run my TV audio to my stereo receiver as an option for movies or sports anyway so I didn't notice any difference

I purchased the box to convert a older receiver with only component output to HDMI input on my LCD TV that did not have but a single set of component jacks input. It works fine just match the component color coded cable into the PETRHP V1 and HDMI cable to your input. worked fine for me.

It has 4 HDMI inputs, one HDMI output. HDMI carries both video and audio. It also has line-in RCA type audio jacks, plus optical audio in. My cable box, my BluRay, my Apple TV connect via HDMI for both video and audio. My HDTV connects to the HDMI out. I connect my CD player via RCA jacks. I also have a turntable connected, but had to place an external phono pre-amp ($15) between it and the receiver, also connected via RCA jacks. Hope this helps. I like the receiver, great product for a great price.

Yes, it supports both 5.1 and 7.1 sound output from the optical out. I use it with my Sonos soundbar and it is a perfect match.

Have done all this, but how do I get 5.1 sound from the external source? Sound only coming through the front speakers. What input should I be using on the receiver to get 5.1 sound from the external source? TIA.

There is only one HDMI input (digital video/audio), the other two connectors are for the two dongle cables for analog pass through (one is input, the other is output), the dongles are used for RGB video and R/L audio input/output, all of them are RCA type connectors 3/2 configuration. Look closely at the end of the dongle and HDMI cables, you will see they are shaped differently and do not interconnect. You can't use the HDMI & dongle inputs at the same time, but you can use the HDMI as the input for digital video/audio, then use the dongle output for RGB video and the optical output for digital audio out for 7.1 sound. You can also purchase a converter to convert the RGB/optical to HDMI digital, but make sure the converter is RGB/optical Input with HDMI Output as many are only HDMI Input to RGB/optical output.

Very tough call to make. I can't comment on the Yamaha 465 as I haven't used it. I've looked at its info on Yamaha's site and it doesn't seem to indicate pass-through only for its HDMI, which means it may support audio through HDMI, too. But as they say, specs are subject to change without notice. I do have the Onkyo TX-SR507 receiver and it DOES support audio through HDMI as well. I've read a few reports saying that the Onkyo receiver will work great with Bose, Polk, and Yamaha speakers. I'm actually using Yamaha NS-SP1800 5.1 Speaker system that I bought off of Tigerdirect.com for only $119, and to be honest, they rival my parents Bose home theater system. They have an old analog one since they don't have HD. I'm the only one in my family with HD gear, lol! Score one for the kids. I've actually done a lot of research, even Consumer Reports, to find my receivers. Whenever you do receiver shopping, ALWAYS STAY AWAY FROM RECEIVERS THAT HAVE ONLY HDMI PASS-THROUGH if you want your audio going through HDMI. Hope this helps. Good luck.
