    Can't get HDMI output to work...

    On my Pioneer VSX-1017 TXV with my new Sharp 42D64U. I ditched the component cable I was running before and picked up a HDMI 1.3 cable. I have it hooked up to the 'out' HDMI port on my receiver, and one of the inlet ports on the TV. I tried selecting the appropriate input on the TV. I still get no picture.
    None of the components I have are HDMI capable. Does my receiver not transfer other types of signals to HDMI? Or am I just doing something wrong? Thanks for any help.

      A lot of receivers will not send a signal out of a different type out than received. Usually S-video , component and HDMI come out of the receiver the same . That has begun to change in the last year or so. Onkyo has a few that will upscale all inputs to a HDMI output. I believe Denon does , as well. I wasn't able to find this info on yours with a quick google search , but that may well be the problem.

          I see. So I really need to have a cable running to the TV to match every type of cable I have running to the receiver then. *tears*
          Well, at least I know now. Thanks for the response.

              Not so fast! I just found this http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pi...-1017TXV-K.pdf

              Looks like it will convert all inputs to component out. The cnet review seems to back up the inability to convert to HDMI , but it looks like a nice receiver. http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-12760_7-9674077-5.html

                  by Tumbleweed
                  I installed a H20-600 LG Dirctv HD receiver and for the most part I'm pretty happy. I hope you can help me sort out some audio problems.

                  I am using HDMI to Panasonic tube and the picture is great. For audio, I have a optical cable running to an Onkyo HT-R500 5.1 and in the Pro logic...

                  How I've added HDMI 1.3 high bitrate audio decoding to my Parasound C1
                  by Chris D
                  Quite a thread title, I guess. Perhaps I should subtitle it, "or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb... I mean, theater."

                  As the title says, I've added HDMI 1.3 audio decoding to my home theater, centered around the Parasound C1 home theater controller. As...

                  I had purchased a 50Ft HDMi VizionWare cable 6 months ago for tons of money and the cable died on Monday. I thought at least I have a warranty for a year. Unfortunately, VizionWare the company filed for chapter 7 and is bankrupt!

                  Can any one tell me how I could get that cable...
