Setting up PS3 and Pioneer VSX D510 with LCD?

[Alex]

Hi,

I have a Pioneer VSX D510 receiver which does not have any HDMI inputs
or outputs. I have purchased a Samsung LN52A630 LCD.

I am purchasing one AV component at a time. Until I purchase a new
receiver with video and audio decoding is it possible to hook up a PS3
to the receiver to send out high def video through the receiver to the
TV and high end audio through the receiver to the speakers? I'm trying
to figure out if I can watch get Blue Ray quality video and audio with
this set up.

The receiver has one optical input and a number of RCA inputs and
outputs.

Thanks for the insight.

Alex

From your description, the best you can do is Digital Optical Audio
from PS3 to receiver (to provide the sound) and either HDMI or
component from PS3 to TV to provide the video.
