Recently purchased a 42" plasma which has HDMI inputs.... now were looking at a new DVD player and looking at one with HDMI but have a query....
The sound system we have is an older Sony 5.1 setup which uses 6xRCA outputs to connect to the DVD player (2x front, 2x rear 1x center, 1x sub). If I find a player with HDMI AND the 6 5.1 outputs, and I use an HDMI cable, does the HDMI disable the 5.1 output or will it run via both ?
Wont bother purchasing HDMI player if it only allows sound via the HDMI and therefore the TV speakers only......
TIA
