OK here's the deal and I'm hoping that somebody can help!
I have an old but very nice Pioneer SC-LX73 which supports 1080p and has many HDMI inputs, no 4k pass through. It is DTS HD Mstr audio capable and drives a quality 5.1 speaker setup.
I am buying a 4k projector this week, there's no TV in the room to worry about
Sources:
4k bluray player with two HDMI outs
Amazon Fire Stick 4K for streaming Netflix, Prime and Disney+ with single HDMI out
Freesat 4 Recordable TV box with single HDMI out
Ideally I only want to run a single HDMI cable to the projector. I want to run the sound output through my Pioneer AV amp while sending a 4k video feed to the projector.
What's the best way to do this to ensure that I get 4k video from as many of these sources as possible to the projector? Do I need some kind of switching box or splitter box?
I'm finding this stuff quite hard to get my head around. In the longer term I will upgrade the AV amp which will simplify things but I don't have the money right now.
I would be very grateful for advice,
Saxon
