TO begin with I have a Pioneer 1019 AHK Receiver,Sony kdf42we655 TV,Samsung BD3600P player and Comcast HD cable box (MOTOROLA DCH3200).My Sony Tv only has one Hdmi Connection.The receiver has multiple Hdmi inputs (4).One input dedicated to BD player.Then I have one output (HDMI).I Have POLK rm 6751 (4),center Polk RM 6752,Polk Sub rm 6750 speakers. That is everything .What is the best way to connect all of the above. I also have a Harmony 700 remote that I will be using to control everything.Any help would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully I'm in the correct forum .
HDMI of course. HDMI from BD player to receiver, HDMI from HD cable box to receiver. HDMI from receiver to tv. You may have to go into cable box's settings and tell it to output over HDMI. Also set the audio output to Dolby Digital. You'll need to go into the setup menus of the BD player, and tell it to output over HDMI, and set the audio output to Bitstream. You might also have to go into the receiver's setup menus and set it up for HDMI output to tv, and assign the HDMI input for cable box to CBL/SAT, not tv. You said the an HDMI input was factory assigned to BD player already. That should make you good to go........... Good luck!
