HD Connections?

Doctor Detroit

Okay, so I could use a bit of advice in getting everything hooked up.

I've got an Olevia 332H, which has one component input. I've also got a DVD/VCR player and a cable box, both of which would like to use the component output (ie, I've got 2 sets of component cables). There's no HDMI outputs, but the TV has HDMI and VGA inputs. The cable box has DVI output.

So, what would be the easiest and/or best solution? Get a splitter to take both component inputs and then send one out to the TV? Or can I use DVI to HDMI (which will then need audio cables, right)?

You could use a DVI/HDMI for the cable box if you want, but yes of course you'd need audio going somewhere.

In the long run, I'd recommend investing in a home theatre system. Tons of inputs both composite and component, digital audio and also the obvious good sound.

Thanks. That's what I was thinking. And a home theatre is a good suggestion, but since we just upgraded the tv, and have a baby on the way, that'll have to wait.

You should be able to exchange your cable box with your cable provider with one that has an HDMI connection on the box. I did that when I got my new TV there wasnt any charge for it since it was the same type of box they just had 2 models one with HDMI and one without. So call you cable provider and find out.
