Hi,
Thanks for taking the time to read this post - I'm in need of some sound advice!
My question is probably a really basic one to you experts but in order to ask it I will firstly need to explain my setup. I have a pioneer LX 73 amp and tv connected to one of the amp's HDMI out sockets. I also have a V+ cable box connected using a hdmi in socket, and a sound mixer which connects to the amp by way of a coaxial in.
What I'd like to do is play out sound through the amp using the mixer, but also watch the tv (without sound). Is there any possible way to do this? As soon as I switch from the amp's tv output to the amp's mixer output the tv screen obviously goes blank and then music from the mixer played, until I re-select the tv output whereby I no longer hear sounds from the mixer out but my tv picture returns...
The v+ cable box only has one hdmi and as said I route this to the amp. The box does have an optical out etc which in theory I could connect to the tv and bypass the amp, but I'm trying my very very best to avoid running any further wires directly to the tv (which is on the wall and I've already buried the existing wires to the point where I can't hide any more...).
Anyway thanks again for reading, and for any help and advice.
