Hi, I have a Yamaha RX-V461 Receiver and I currently have a DVD player attached with success. I recently purchased a LCD TV and I have failed to be able to connect it to my receiver. I followed the direction provided with the receiver and had no success. I have a Sylvania Model # LC320SS9 with the following jack open for usage:

Area 1
Digital Audio Out (Coaxial) (Yellow) = One Jack Alone

Area 2
Video 1 = 4 Jacks
1) S Video
2) Video (yellow)
3) Left Audio (red)
4) Right Audio (white)

Area 3
Video 2
Same as above

Area 3
Component 1 = 5 Jacks
1)Y
2)Pb
3)Py
4)L Audio
5)R Audio

Area 5
Component 2 = 5 Jacks
Same as above

The Yamaha receiver has ton of jacks to many to list
A would really appreciate any help you can possibly give. Thank you for you time

.

If the receiver has a digital input that's open, run from the TV's coax digital out to the receiver. Go to the TV's set up menu and switch on the digital out. Do the same for the receiver's digital in if needed.

Otherwise, your question is really quite broad for a forum since every TV and every receiver can have their peculiarites. Try calling the retailer where you purchased either the TV or the receiver for some after the sale service. They should know their product better than anyone else. If this isn't in your scheme, call a local HT installer and they will do the job for you at a basic fee.

However, if you get in the set up menu and switch on outputs and inputs, you'll normally have success with this installation.

not exactly sure what your question is but your setup should look like this.
For your dvd player - Audio out is thru digital coxial cable from DVD to Yamaha receiver. Then you will have component Video cables from dvd to TV...lets say component 1. If you want, you can also connect video from DVD to the Yamaha in the video port that corresponds your coxial input (Example: Coxial audio input is labeled DVD....Then you will look for component video input labeled DVD). Once you connect those, you will need to run a component cable OUT from your Yamaha to IN of your TV (lets say component 1). Set you TV to Component 1 ans swith your Yamaha to DVD... and that should work.

I dont think your DVD player would have a TOSLINK output (although it may)...so thats why I am am using digital coaxial for an example.


Again, I'm not too sure what your asking....you may want to be a little more detailed.
