Can a Denon be connected to a Vizio TV?

I have an older Denon AVR-1312 receiver that only supports 1080P over HDMI 1.4a. This is good enough for my cable TV service. The Denon is wired to all of my surround speakers and connected to my 4K Ultra HD Vizio TV.

How to connect a Roku to a Vizio?

I connected the Roku to my TV on a 4K @ 60Hz port… Then I connected the TV to the Denon via the SPDIF optical cable… I then configured the Denon to assign the optical input to the “Game” HDMI input (which has nothing in it). So to watch Roku, I set the HDMI input on the Vizio… and set the Denon to “Game”…. Whallaa, Bob is your Uncle!

Can a Denon TV be used as a 4K receiver?

How to connect a Roku TV to a receiver using HDMI?

I have mine connected using an Onkyo receiver. On occasion, the ARC signal doesn’t make a proper connection to the receiver and I have to reboot the Roku TV to initiate handshake.
