Hi,
below is my nephews new setup i am creating - an ultra affordable one:
(a) Old unused Yamaha receiver bought in UK in 2005 which didnt have HDMI input or output - Yamaha RX-V357 A/V Receivers reviews - Audioreview.com
(b) 480p projector that has HDMI only as inputs - UC 40 PLUS LED PROJECTOR: Amazon.in: Electronics
(c) yamaha speakers that came with the receiver
(d) xbox 360 bought on Dussehra sale - net cost of 8000 - Buy Xbox 360 4GB Console Online at Low Prices in India | Microsoft Video Games - Amazon.in
Now since receiver doesnt have hdmi, the plan is to connect console to projector via HDMI. Then run a red and white stereo cable from xbox to yamaha.
now if i run the red and white cable to yamaha..i am assuming its stereo and hence yamaha wont recognize 5.1? also except hdmi and this single pin output, the console doesnt have any other outputs.
Hence my question is whether any other solution can ensure 5.1 to my speakers? say connecting xbox to yamaha via a HDMI to component convertor cable..does that carry 5.1 signals?
