Greetings, I currently have a High-Def Cable DVR (Motorola Series II from my cable company), a VCR, a DVD player, and a regular CRT tv. These are all currently hooked up to my Sony receiver (STRDE985 if it matters). I use the standard Red-White-Yellow hookups as the Sony receiver cannot convert. BUT I am now getting a Sony Bravia 40 inch flat screen (KDL-40V2500). I cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to hook the DVR, VCR, and DVD player through a receiver which does not have DVI or HDMI. Any ideas? Thanks!
All you can use are composite cables. The ones you are using now. I have the same thing going on. I just got a new Aquos and I can only use composite cables to hookup things, if I want them going thru my receiver. I am afraid the only answer is to buy a new receiver. You can get a good mid-level one with component and HMDI inputs and outputs. Onkyo and Sony have a couple in the $500 range. The Onkyo TSR674, I think, gets really good ratings.
