    I just upgraded to the Live to get component out for my projector.

    I have the component out of the WDTV to my Sony receiver. I also have the WDTV to AVR via HDMI, for when I am not using the projector.

    I am able to get the video from the projector when set to Component out, but no audio via the toslink.

    Here's the kicker.

    When I have the WDTV set to HDMI out, I still get a picture from the projector, but it is 4:3 AR, while the HDMI signal to my TV, from the AVR, shows 16:9. And in this situation, I get full audio.

    Head scratcher for sure.

    Is my problem due to the fact that I have HDMI and the Component hooked up at the same time? Thanks.

    Could be... Have you tried them one at a time?

    Also, how about connecting the Live to your TV via HDMI, and the Live itself to your receiver via TOSLink (not HDMI)?

    I figured it out. I had the optical input on the AVR assigned to a different source. All is well now.

    Thanks. Got to watch Avatar last night on a 120" screen. So awesome.
