    Passing audio through HDMI on RSX-1057

    Ever since I got the RSX 1057 I've been disappointed that the HDMI input cannot accept audio signals. Instead I've had to use an optical cable from my dvd player to teh RSX 1057. DOes anyone know if there is a fix for this yet?

    Not until a new model comes out which will likely have HDMI 1.3. Last I heard that wont be a reality until Q4 2007 at the earliest. A lot of people are looking forard to this.

      Are you sure HDMI can't transport audio signals? I have a Marantz DV6600 DVD player conected to a 42" Pioneer Plasma through HDMI and if I'm not wrong it passes both video & audio.

      What you will get in the future with HDMI 1.3 is sending HD audio signals in the new formats. See this link where it says:

      "New lossless audio formats: In addition to HDMI’s current ability to support high-bandwidth uncompressed digital audio and all currently-available compressed formats (such as Dolby Digital and DTS), HDMI 1.3 adds additional support for new, lossless compressed digital audio formats Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD."

        The 1057 can certainly pass the audio signal on to a TV, but it will never decode the signal itself.

          hdmi audio splitter

          I ran into many of the hdmi issues most people face. My laptop has HDMI output, with no seperate SPDIF output port. Initially I thought I would just run the HDMI --> TV, then TOSlink to my amp. Little did I know most TV's downmixes digital signal to 2 channel.

          I am happy to say that...

          Hello...


          DVD-A/SACD will require a lot of folks to make changes in their systems. What (if any) changes will you make for the new audio formats?

          Which new HD audio format should you use?
          by Chris D
          I thought I'd post this to help out those who have taken the plunge into HD-DVD and/or Blu-Ray, to understand the BASICS of the new HD audio formats that it includes.

          The question is, when I pop in a new HD-DVD or Blu-Ray, when I get to the main menu, I've got a choice of several different...

          HDMI 1.3a receivers coming out
          by Chris D
          I wish I could make this non-model specific, but so far, this is all I know of actually delivering to consumers. Got an Integra press release today.

          Looks AMAZING for only $800! Note the deep color capability, Audyssey room correction, HDMI upconversion, and HD audio decoding!
