Thread: Questions about hooking up the Sony STR-DG510 Home Theater Receiver

UPS delivered the Sony STR-DG510 Home Theater Receiver that I ordered form Amazon.com.
After looking over the manual, I was wondering could I hook up the Toshiba HD A2 or A3 to the HDMI port that marked for Blu Ray DVD ot do I have to use the DVD HDMI port?
As far as hooking up the ViP622, do I use the component video or the video in for the SAT?

Thanks,

Leprechuan

I am not familiar with your receiver, but I would try connecting HD DVD to the HDMI marked "Blu-ray" and your vip622 to HDMI marked "DVD".

Good luck!

It is just a standard HDMI Port... My Sony has a stero RCA input ability for MiniDisc... but who the hell uses that? lol I'm surprised Sony doesn't also put a mono connection on these receivers for Betamax.

You should be able to hook it up anyway you please, and I think on the model (like mine, but mine is the 6.1 version), you can rename the inputs anyways. Hope this helps.

Leprechuan,

I ended up getting a 810 Sony receiver and it has a similar Blue Ray HDMI input, that's where I hooked up my HD-A3 DVD Player and it works great.

RandallA,

Thank you for letting me know, I got lost in this site and didn't see your reply.
I am waiting to see if Father Christmas brings me the Toshiba HD A2 or A3.

Again, my deepest thanks to everyone for the collective support and help.

Peace,

Leprechuan
