New Receiver Question - Blu-ray Forum

woolvr · 10-07-2007, 10:32 PM

I'm going to upgrade my denon 5800 to the new 4308ci with the hdmi inputs. I have 2 pioneer elite dv-f07 300 dvd changers now and am going to buy the new denon blu-ray player when it gets released. My question is: if i hook up my 2 dvd changers using the componet hookup to the back of the new denon and hook up the blu-ray to the hdmi and connect the hdmi out to my tv, then what happens to the signal from my 2 changers to the tv? am i going to be able to watch the dvds through the hdmi output or do i need to hook up a componet cable to the tv as well. thanks

yes, It will convert the Component signal into HDMI, so you will only need an HDMI cable from the receiver to the TV.

Video Up-Conversion Powered With DCDi By Faroudja: The AVR-4308CI is equipped with a flexible video switching system that converts video signals in an effort to only require one video connection from receiver to TV. The video switching system features a Directional Correlation De-interlacing (DCDi) special video processor developed by Faroudja that involves advanced algorithms to remove the jagged edges that appear when standard interlaced video is viewed on progressive scan displays. DCDi converts standard interlaced signals into progressive scan signals in order to eliminate the stair-casing effect that conventional up-converters can introduce to diagonal edges. Unlike most other conversion circuits, this receiver will convert analog signals from composite video, S-Video, and component video to HDMI up to 1080p.
