Hi, I have the Toshiba 32wlt TV and the Denon 1730 Dvd Player connected by HDMI. The problem is the stereo is the wrong way round. For example, in a movie, if an explosion happens on the right of the screen, the sound comes out of the left speaker. It can be very distracting. My wife says it doesn't bother her but it's one of those things that's really bugging me. I can't afford a 5.1 system at the moment. Any ideas as to resolving this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

It might be the cable. I had a SCART cable that did that once. Get a new cable of a different make and see if that fixes it.

Shouldn't make any difference with HDMI, it's a digital signal.

It has nothing to do with analogue/digital. If the cable carrying the sound has been wired the wrong way, that would be a cause.

If HDMI carries the audio digitally then theoretically it should make no difference.
If you know how digital audio is transferred, you only have one cable transferring data. It cant get mixed up because theres nothing to mix it up with. Its a simple way of explaining it i know, but all digital audio connections (optical and digital coaxial) come single. There is no need for 2 when 1 has enough bandwidth.

No it wouldn't.

Digital audio is carried via ONE digital feed, (ALL CHANNELS CARRIED IN ONE FEED!) meaning that it cannot be reversed by a faulty cable.
