Tv: make sure hdmi is connected in the hdmi marked ARC, also make sure tv setting has arc enabled. Denon: you will need to turn on 'HDMI controls', also you will need ARC enabled (if i remeber correctly ) and lastly you will need to set the source in the hdmi setting to tv.

We use a Roku box to stream content from netflix, amazon, etc. Works a charm. We also rigged a small, cheap (but very clean) amp and some good passive speakers ... No need for 5.1, so we're very happy with the stereo sound.

You would likely use sn HDMI cable which you have to purchase separately to use a wifi enabled player. The TV has two HDMI; one VGA; one cable; yellow/white/red composite; and red/white inputs. I have streamed Netflix and DVD using the VGA and audio through the headphone jack cable with a laptop that does not have an HDMI jack.

I have XMBC (frodo build) installed on my EB1503 (as I use the box as a media server) it has no problems with any of the HD audio associated with video codecs (DTS & Dolby TrueHD). I've never tried streaming from an online source (as I only have DSL). My audio/video goes over HDMI to my Onkyo TX-NR608. My experience would say that it is your decoding software having problems, not the EB1503 hardware.

Comrade Trotsky: I just bought this device from Amazon last week - it's an M1001 (Roku doesn't sell the M1000's any more). It works flawlessly. My router [Linksys WRT300N using WPA2 (Personal)] and my SoundBridge are separated by ~ 50 ft., and transmission has to go through several walls. Nonetheless, my SoundBridge almost never cuts out - I would say maybe two or three times (or less) in an eight-hour period. Recovery is automatic, and takes perhaps two seconds. The M1001 now ships with v. 3.0 software, which add several features to the display, as well as realiability (or so I'm told). Tip: Don't use the "standard" music servers out there (Windows, iTunes, etc.). Get Jamcast from Software Development instead (www.sdstechnologies.com - it's free). Jamcast will let you play ANY music-file format on your SoundBridge (including DRM), plus, it allows you to stream Pandora to your SoundBridge - something no other music server can do! PS - When I mentioned drop-outs above, I was referring strictly to using the M1001 as an internet radio. Consequently, the drop-outs MIGHT be the fault of the internet-radio provider. For example, when using Jamcast to receive Pandora, my SoundBridge NEVER cuts out!

If you are mainly interested in Netflix, my vote would be to go with the Roku. I got a Linksys dma2100 and I still cannot get the vmcNetFlix plugin to work to watch Netflix through the Media Center software. Plus I was hoping to stream Hulu.com through Media Center and cannot do that either. My plan at this point is to just find an older XP tower and set it next to the TV. This way I am free to choose Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, Boxee, etc. I will probably hang on to my extender to see whether there will be more options for it over the next year.

Dear Gary,Best way to connect this is to run an HDMI from your DVR to the Denon soundbar followed by an HDMI from the soundbar to your television.Eric C.World Wide Stereo

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!

I prefer to hook my critical video equipment, especially reference equipment, directly to my monitor. You can use the ARC HDMI to get TV sound out of the Receiver.there 'has' to be 'some' information lost in the translation, imo.

Hi Dan D. Thanks for the question. Seeing as this is a Bluetooth device, that is the only way to connect to it. Smart or wifi is not what is needed. A Bluetooth transmitter is what you will need to connect to the TV to get the performance you desire. It is a small device that is easy to connect to the speakers. It sends the signal wirelessly to the speakers. Hope this helps. Contact AV-Express with more questions.

How are you hooking up the rest of the channels? Via 5.1 in the motherboard? TOSLINK (digital/optical)? Explain your setup in detail and I can probably help you out.
