A/V jacks or HDMI cable?

Question

I have both the a/v jacks and the HDMI cable hooked up to my tv from my dvd player. Do I need both of them hooked up or one or the other? Thanks

Answer 1

Nope, pointless to use both as your tv can only draw from one set at a time. Just stick with HDMI, better quality.

Answer 2

Onldy HDMI Cable is necessary. Only way you need both is, if you go from the Player to your Home-Theater-Soundsystem and then to the TV. And if your Player only has 1 HDMI Slot you might want to use the regular jack if you want to bypass the Soundsystem if you are watching something that is not worthwhile the power the Soundsystem requires.
