I tried switching to my best HDMI cable instead of the old, generic one that came bundled with a piece of equipment I bought somewhere along the line, but alas it made no difference. It is the Samsung universal player that is the problem. Oh well, at least I'll have another back-up SACD player.

I had not thought about the possibility of using an optical cable for the sound and an HDMI cable for the video. Of course I wouldn't have surround but it would at least allow me to watch my Zone 2 movies. I tried experimenting but my optical cable was too short. Do you think that if I purchased a long optical cable that I could mix the HDMI with the optical? One for picture, one for sound? Would that work?
