“Can this splitter be used to pass 3D video to a 3D TV and HD audio to an HDMI 1.3 AVR?”

1-5 of 5 Answers

• You need a Blu-Ray Player with 2 HDMI outputs. One goes to 3D HDTV for Video and the second HDMI (SUB) goes to your NON 3D AVR for audio ONLY.. Then go to the Player settings and follow manual. Panasonic has 3D player with 2 HDMI out, You don"t need splitter.

• It WILL NOT pass thru the audio while sending the 3d signal to the TV. I have a Samsung 50" 8000 plasma and a Yamaha DSP Z7 Receiver. While playing any regular Blu Ray, audio to the receiver is perfect and picture to the TV is perfect. Plug in the same movie in 3D and the receiver input flashes on/off continuously and plays no sound... Also the bluray recognizes that the receiver is not a 3D compatible device(even tho it is*I don't want to get started on that issue*). So I have to unplug the HDMI from the switcher that goes to the receiver until the movie starts and then plug it back in.... so no... this switcher WILL NOT WORK for your/my application......

• The easy answer is yes. I am assuming that your AVR does not support the 1.4 standard required for 3D, yet supports the lossless formats like Dolby TrueHD and DTS Master HD. This is perfect for this purpose... Of course you'll now have to turn down the TV speakers too. Also consider for the $100 you're going to shell out for this single purpose device you may want to consider buying a new Denon AVR that supports 3D and HDMI upconversion starting at $350 and re-purposing your current AVR (depending on the quality of your current AVR of course). See the recommendation attached.

  I would recommend:

  • 
    Denon - 600W 5.1-Ch. A/V Home Theater Receiver
