Hello to this great forum. I have been pondering quite a while reading and learning quite a bit of info here. As always, you get to a point where its very specific to your situation and here I am, requesting all for your help.
I just bought a Samsung LCD TV (55 LED TV, very slim design which offers only 1 component connection and no S-video connections). My current setup has a Rotel Receiver connected to the Sony CRT via a Svideo. All my audio and video switching is done via Rotel at this point.
Basically, my question is, if the new LCD TV Doesn't offer the S-video connection, can I just replace the S-video connection with a component AV cables between Rotel and LCD TV to get the component output from my component input devices (DVD/Cable/etc), and a new HDMI cable connection b/w Rotel and LCD TV for my Bluray for digital. Will I be able to run all the component connections to Rotel and run 1 component output to LCD tv to get my setup working so that I can watch which ever I want and just switch b/w Video sources on the Rotel. Does this setup works to watch both my analog and digital output? Do you see any issues?
CAN ROTEL CONVERT ALL COMPONENT INPUTS TO 1 COMPONENT OUTPUT SO THAT I CAN CONNECT THAT OUTPUT TO THE TV? CAN IT CONVERT ANALOG INPUT (COMPONENT) TO DIGITAL OUTPUT (HDMI)?
Below is the setup.
Green = Component AV Connection
Red = HDMI Connection
Pink = S-Video connection
OLD AV Setup:
SONY CRT TV <---- <ROTEL AVR
|<B&W 703
|<DVD 1 Player
|<DVD 2 Player
|<VCR Player
|<Cable Receiver
NEW AV Setup
LCD TV <--- <ROTEL AVR &&
LCD TV <--- <ROTEL AVR
|<B&W 703
|<DVD 1 Player
|<DVD 2 Player
|<BLURay Player
|<Cable Receiver
Please help me out here. Also, can I use Optical cables b/w Bluray and Rotel to get the best sound to the speakers?
Thanks & Regards,
Perla
