How to Connect HDMI Components with AVR 3805 as Hub

Hi,

I am currently using the AVR 3805 as a hub with my SONY XBR HDTV, Sony PS3, Sony HDMI DVD/CD, and Scientific-Atlanta HD-DVR from Time-Warner Cable connecting and switching via the 3805.

Is it possible to use the HDMI interface for each device via an hdmi switcher? I do not have any HDMI connections on the receiver and the TV has only a single HDMI connection. How should the connections be made between the receiver and the hdmi switcher so when changing components the audio and video seamlessly switches thru the receiver.

Thanks in advance.

    My AV Receiver is connected with my sat receiver via HDMI. From time to time synchronisation is lost (black screen, no audio) for about 1 second. I think the problem is bigger when I am watching a channel in HD. I don't have the problem while I am watching blue ray.
    Regards,
    Stephan

In reference to the comment you added to our chat session:

Just connect your receiver to your TV using the same cable your receiver is currently using to connect to your TV, be it Composite, S-Video, or Component. Just switch your TV to that input when you need to set-up something on the receiver.

Make sure you didn't get the video line out confused with one of the audio lines.
If using composite video the connection should be yellow and the left and right
channels should be red and white

Are you selecting the correct video input on the TV that corresponds to the HDMI location? Direct is usually the simplest way to go. Is the HDMI cable okay? Try component video, too.

How to connect BLU-RAY DVD player to Pioneer Plasma TV via HDMI
The best possible solution to your problem is :
Connect your blu ray player directly to the HDMI input of you Plasma and watch HD video....
and connect the 5.1/7.1 sound thru the optical or the coaxial link directly to your AVR 3805.
You will not loose anything on the Blu-Ray.
The sound is best processsed by the AVR3805, while the video, which is the real upgrade (BluRay) in terms of resolution of picture would be processed by your plasma.

Connect and Enjoy

Toshiba HDTV + SONY PLAYSTATION 3 + SONY Home Theatre DAVHDX265
I have looked up the infomation on your TV I noticed that your TV has two HDMI input plugs. Since your SONY BRAVIA is hooked up to one port, you need to buy another HDMI cable for your PS3. On your tv remote you should have an option to switch from video 1 to video 2 so then you can switch from the SONY BRAVIA to the PS3 the problem is you will only hear your PS3 Sound from you TV. If you want to hear your PS3 sound from your SONY BRAVIA you need to buy an optical cable (also called TOSLINK) to connect from your PS3 to the SONY BRAVIA.

Hope that helps!

Ive got a 40gb ps3 and a bt home hub wireless router how do i connect ps3 to computer ps ps3 is upstairs and pc downstairs
look on the back of your home hub. there should be a Wireless Key in a Grey box. (BT Home Hub wireless settings)

note the wireless key.

go to your ps3. and turn it on log on ect. go to settings and down to network settings (right at bottom).

(Im not sure of the next section because im currently on a network but it should be an option to find network).

anyway you search for networks. should find your home hub.

keep going right untill you have to enter any settings. and write your WEP Key (Not WKA). (wireless key from back of router).
