If you can find something on HDMI 1.4 that was mentioned in 2009, I'm interested in seeing it.

I hooked up my VCR, DVD, and CD players to a Pioneer SC-1010, vintage 1975, with no problems. Finally got a receiver that decoded Dolby, and another that did DTS, somewhere in there. Didn't need them, but they were cheap.
