Issues with HD cable box

[bobncsu325]

So I just installed my HD box today and I'm getting sound but no picture. And I'm still learning about all this hdmi and component stuff so bare with me lol...


Everything is ran through my receive, my sony receiver has 2 hdmi inputs
-the ps3 is plugged into one of the inputs and there is a hd cable that runs from the receiver output to the TV
-the hd cable box is hooked up to the receiver via component

I assume that the receiver is supposed to spit out all output through that one hdmi cable for the TV?

the hd box is working fine because it displays the time and I can hear sound, but I see no video.
all the component cables are matched up with their proper color/ports...

any help?

Thanks!

Only if the A/V receiver is capable of converting any/all video inputs to output via HDMI. Many will only pass an HDMI in via the HDMI out.
