If this is correct, all you need is an HDMI cable, which carries high definition (HD) video and audio over that singular cable. Blu-ray player -> TV, with the arrow being the HDMI cable. If your receiver has HDMI inputs, then you will hook up the Blu-ray player to that receiver, and then the receiver to your HDTV. Blu-ray player -> stereo -> TV. If your receiver doesn¹t have HDMI, then it becomes your setup becomes little more complicated and less than ideal ‹ if for no other reason than you won¹t be realizing full HD, which kind of defeats the purpose of going with Blu-ray. You will have several decisions to make if this is the case as far as how you want to send your audio and video, and I¹ll go into it further if this is your situation. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
