where do you hook up a directv receiver?

If I recall correctly, HDMI1 is for Blue-Ray; so I used HDMI for my HD from cable box into receiver. Use the pass-thru out from receiver to TV. That way, you can still watch TV with receiver off.

I have 3 components connected to my receiver - An Amazon TV, a Blu-Ray disk player and the Directv receiver - all using HDMI cables. You do need to have the receiver on, but how else would you get that beautiful sound! If your DirecTV receiver doesn't have an HDMI output, you can connect the DirecTV box to the composite video inputs on the front of the receiver and select the V-Aux input on the remote control. You may be able to connect it to one of the composite video inputs on the back, but I didn't try that. I hope that helps.TopCatOnyx

Assuming you have an HD receiver, you connect the HDMI cable to one of the inputs on the Yamaha receiver, and another HDMI cable from the Yamaha receiver to your TV.

I am not selling or sending any DTV receiver. Receiver ID is located either on the bottom or rear surface of the receiver box. If the access card is missing then DTV will get you a new one for $20 or $25 fee.Nick.

These are infrared emitters. They connect, using the plug, to a device that emits remote control signals. Ideally your remote then talks to the device that emits the signals, which could be a hub or could be some other type of the device that has a "remote out" on the back. Without knowing the model of the DirecTV receiver, it's hard to say but most (if not all) DirecTV receivers don't have the capability. However, most DirecTV come with an RF (radio frequency) remote control which allows the DirecTV receiver to work in a different room. Other than that, you are probably looking at some type of smaller repeater or hub.

I actually used the Direct TV coaxial cable that was on the old dish mount to connect the outdoor antenna w/ my digital TV. I did have to attach a smaller diameter pipe to mount w/ the outdoor antenna but was simple enough.

It has been a while since I had Directv, however l understand it uses HDMI output. If the set top box has optical audio out, simply connect to the optical in on the 5500. The 5500 has no "digital" input. If the set top has no optical out, you will need a Samsung TV with "Anynet" connectivity. From that an HDMI cable will run to the 5500, where audio and video will run both directions. Good luck.

This is a HD receiver that supports direct TV. I ordered through Amazon because it was much cheaper.

I called directv and set it up. Pretty minimal monthly charge- I think it's $10/mo or less.

I'm sorry, I don't have DirectTV either. It works great off cable and DVDs.

It has a coax connector, it isn't a digital converter though so you'll need a digital TV or a converter.

I'm not sure, I don't use a Cable Box or Satelite Dish. My Antenna goes right to the back of my TV and into the Coax spot on the back. If your DirectTV is plugged into this spot, you'll need to remove that and use the Antenna. Then you might need to go into TV settings and tell it to not use Cable and use Antenna instead.

This dish will not support HD, so that receiver will work great....same one I use. I use mine at Camp in the mountains and the dish works great, it is small and easy to set up quick. I do suggest that you look at purchasing a Satellite Finder Meter For Directv to make the set up quicker, the one I purchased was made by Satellite Finder, sold by Smartie Store on Amazon, only $8.99. You may want a tri pod or pole to mount the dish for ease as well.

Connect everything (PS3, Directv, surround sound receiver) to your television via HDMI, then run an optical cable from your tv to the surround receiver. Presto.

Worse case scenario your directv box does not support RF. The good news is the RF remotes can still be set to IR if necessary.

This unit is just simply a video router. You can input signal from your DirecTV satellite receiver, or from an air antenna, or from DVD players, etc. It's purpose is to be able to route signal to a number of display or playback units at the same time. I have mine working with DirecTV in the motorhome.

I have Directv at the house. I move box to trailer and hook up to this antennae and get the same as at home. I miss nothing.

you would need an amplifier/receiver between the directv receiver and these, these are passive speakers and need power.if you want to connect a directv receiver, you need the bose cinemate, those would connect directly to the directv receiver and work fine.
