I just purchased the Oppo 95 AND upgraded from the SSP 600 to the 800. I am in the process of setting them up. I am having difficulty understanding the best approach of what I think are two options to connect them for the BEST HDMI audio/video delivery and thus I am having trouble getting the sound/picture to work.
Here is what I believe.
Option 1
1. I can simply connect HDMI 1 out from Oppo to the 800 for sound and audio. I had obtained video and audio in this setup.
Option 2
1. I can connect for video delivery from the Oppo HDMI 1 output into an HDMI 1 input on the 800. The Oppo uses the best video processors on HDMI 1 out. I believe this disengages the audio from this HDMI out and sends video only??
2. I am thinking I can then use the second HDMI 2 out on the Oppo into an HDMI 2 on the 800 for purely the audio source??
3. I then have an HDMI OUT from the 800 to my TV.
This option 2 is currently how I have it connected believing this would be the BEST connections for a pure video / pure audio delivery each through its own HDMI. ??
I have a great picture but no sound right now.
Here is what I can evaluate to help understand further.
1. I have set up the Oppo to use HDMI 1 as a dedicated video out source.
2. When playing with the 800 settings the settings screen says video source is from HDMI 1 and on the DVD INPUT audio connector I have it set to HDMI AUDIO.
3. On the Oppo I can never get BOTH HDMI 1 and 2 to show simultaneous outputs of information. Its shows either the HDMI 1 OR HDMI 2 as the output to the 800.
NO SOUND!!!
Any helpful insight would be appreciated.
