3D Audio
Is anybody able to tell me, is there an reasonably priced HDMI splitter on the market that will enable me to send a 3D signal from my PS3 to a 3D enabled TV whilst at the same time sending a full HD audio signal on the second HDMI output to my Sony STRDG820 receiver amp. I am more than happy with this Amp unit and do not want to upgrade it at this time, but cannot seem to find a splitter which will give me Dolby tru-hd and DTS Master Audio without an amp upgrade.
You cannot separate an audio signal from a video signal with an HDMI splitter.
The cheapest option is to buy a blu-ray player with twin HDMI outs, like this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B004QWY7SO/ref=asc_df_B004QWY7SO4690369?smid=...
You won't have to upgrade your receiver then which is a far more expensive option.

what are you on .all they need is a second hdmi cable so they can connect the playstation 3 to the sony amplifier and then connect that amplifier to the television like any home cinema system .try reading the problem first before giving out expensive incorrect advice in future

What are you on about? Have you read the OP's question properly? The OP wants HD audio with 3D & wants to split audio & video signals.

HDMI splitter you've suggested does not meet his requirements. They're suitable if you want to toggle between a TV & a projector for example. They cannot separate audio from video signals.

If you want 3D & HD audio, you need a separate blu-ray player like the one I've suggested.

The Panasonic Blu-ray player linked above has two HDMI outputs - you connect one of these outputs to your TV to send 3D pictures direct, and the other HDMI output to your AV receiver to send the HD audio direct. So only two HDMI cables are required for this and it's one of the simplest methods of getting 3D if you don't have a 3D compatible AV receiver.
On the splitter question, whilst theoretically it should be possible for a 1.4 certified splitter to send the signal to both the TV for 3D and the amp for HD audio, I wasn't aware that there were any which had in fact been certified to do this. All the tests I've seen other people perform so far have indicated it's not possible, but happy to be proved wrong on this as I've done no actual testing myself.
I was under the impression that a new update for the PS3 now allowed 3D and HD audio to be sent to a compatible receiver (source here and here), but I've not tested it myself. As noted above, with only one HDMI output, I believe you would therefore need a 3D compatible receiver for this to work.
isnt that what i said in my first reply using the op's Sony STRDG820 3D receiver amp with a second hdmi cable

The Sony STR-DG820 isn't a 3D capable receiver. You may be thinking of the newer Sony STR-DH320.





Something like this perhaps http://www.amazon.co.uk/Neet%C2%AE-SPLITTER-Amplifier-Display-Shipping/d... .p.s the amplifier should have hdmi out which means you dont need a splitter just another hdmi cable.
