What you're looking for is an A/V preamp/processor (pre/pro). These will take digital and analog inputs and consolidate them into digital video plus analog audio outputs. These exist in some abundance. Unfortunately, they are generally not "budget" items, as they populate the "separates" marketplace. There are also some A/V integrated amplifiers with preamplifier outputs that are priced lower than some pre/pros. I think you're likely one google search away from a piece of equipment, new or used, that fits your bill at around the same price as MSRP for an Oppo (X)X3.Seriously, I've been looking for YEARS for something -- anything -- that can turn HDMI signal into good-sounding analog 5.1 outs that I can feed into my vintage gear.
