I'm in a similar situation where I am hooking up a TiVo Premiere, Panasonic Blu-Ray player, and a LG 47LH90 TV to an old Bose Lifestyle 5 Music Center. After reviewing all of my connectivity options, I've come to settle on the fact that my TiVo will connect via the "Video" input on the Music Center (via red/white RCA). The Blu-Ray player will connect to the "AUX" input on the Music Center. And I'll just have to switch between Video and AUX modes for what I'm watching at the time.
I have a similar problem. The Sharp TV aquos appears to be shutting down my blue ray player and dvd recorder when connected via HDMI. They work fine and never close down when I connect them via the rca cables either single video connection or a composite 3 cable rca lead. I have 3 HDMI inputs on the tv and the problem occurs on all 3. Any suggestions?
as far as hooking up your blu ray player to the sc-pt660, the only real way to utilize the surround sound (with true surround sound) is through the optical audio out. You need to connect your blu ray player through hdmi to your tv and then connect your blu ray player to your surround sound using the optical audio out/in. I, personally have the sc-pt660 hooked up through component cables so I don't waste an HDMI input on my TV. Except for cd's, there is no reason for you to use the actual dvd player part of the surround sound considering you have a blu ray player. In conclusion, hooking your blu ray player and the sc-pt660 up to get better video simply isnt possible (your blu ray player alone gives the best possible resolution, 1080p). As far as audio goes, run an optical audio cable from your blu ray player to your sc-pt660 to get true surround sound.
Thinking the problem might be the cable box..I bypassed the Tivo and hooked the cable box direct...there was audio on ch. 3 ....reconnected the Tivo and the audio was fine...strange?
The other players need to be setup to output digital sound. Assuming you are using a digital or optical audio cable, go into the setup screen of the Blu-Ray or Tivo etc. and select the audio setup screen. Set the audio output to PCM.
