Illico HD PVR: Does it have HDMI output

Blork · 01-08-2008, 03:15 PM

Anyone here have one of these boxes? I'll be getting one soon, and I'm trying to figure out (in advance) how I'm going to connect it to my reciever and TV.

Thx!

Anyway you want, Composite, S-Video, Component and HDMI. The last two for HD reception.

If you have HDMI inputs/output at your receiver, you can then connect HDMI from STB>Receiver>TV. In STB's General Settings, set audio to Dolby Digital and Picture Format at Auto DVI/HDMI.

If you have problems getting 5.1 DD for HD, connect STB to receiver with optical or coax digital audio connection and HDMI direct to TV (or use Component).

Thanks for the info, it helps. But what I really want to know in this case is (specifically) does the Illico HD PVR have an HDMI output. It's not listed on the specs for the machine, but it seems odd that it would NOT have it.

The SA8300HD has an HDMI output.
