I would like to be able to play a cd on my Marantz cd player (connected by a digital optical cable to my denon av amp) at the same time as browsing the internet with my dell, connected to the denon with a hdmi cable from the video card?
The hdmi cable always takes preference on the amp and it selects the media player ( my computer ) as the input source and plays whatever is on the computer through the amp and I can't use the cd player.
Is this just a case of trying to do too much at the one time or am I doing something really basic wrong?
I also have a Pioneer DVD 565A dvd player and was thinking of trying it out as a transport against the maranza as it is much smalle and might just fit into my cabinet? Any thoughts?
