Check HDMI Sound settings:
Enter Setup menu via remote, then Func. Setup / HDMI / Audio. You can choose from Amp (sound will be played via Yamaha), TV (sound will go straight via HDMI out to your TV and not play on Yamaha) and Amp+TV (Yamaha will play the sound and also pass it to the TV).
Also what is your source? DVD or some network player? For example Yamaha cannot decode audio in AAC or other computer formats, so be sure to change the audio settings of your player to output PCM and not raw/bitstream.

make sure you have the fm antenna connected. below is the manual for this unit,including programming stations on it.

Good luck!!

If you suspect a setting was changed why are you tampering with the cables?

Get into the manual and go through every setting. Troubleshooting sections usually help. If it's just the Cable Box audio look at IT. Assign the port. If it's ALL audio start with the test tones.

Yamaha remote supports only those codes that are in the manual (they are pre-programmed in the remote), so no other code can be used. Your only option is to try codes from different brand in the manual (if not done already) or buy a universal remote, which you can program both for Samsung and Yamaha.

hi if the problem is just some of other stations do not have sound their might be a problem with the source signal which is coming from the stations. try to turn off the receiver and then after a while turn on check if still the same station that you look has no sound if it is the case there will be problem in some channel stations. try also to hooked the speakers to the other output in your receiver. make sure all wire connectors properly fit and installed.good luck thanks for consulting the fixya.

Maybe it has or thinks it has headphones attached.

What happens if you try only the rear speakers without front?
The amp is 105 W per channel, but as most AV amps, it cannot handle 5x 105W at the same time.
The only thing I can think of is impedance issue. Are the front/center/rear speaker of the same impedance? You can set the speaker impedance in the advanced menu (page 45 in english manual), but all speakers must have the same impedance (8ohm or 6ohm).

Please check your TV settings and the optical cable.
The speaker icons disapper from LCD display when the receiver does not detect any input signal throught the optical/coax/hdmi cable.

You can set the speaker impedance in the Advanced menu. See page 45 of english manual (it can be on different page in other language manual).
In standby mode, on the receiver (not on remote!) press STANDBY/ON while pressing and holding STRAIGHT button. THe "ADVANCED SETUP" should show in the LCD display. Now use PROGRAM +/- buttons to navigate the menu. Select "SP IMP." which is speaker impedance setting. Press STRAIGHT to select the correct value. Options are 6ohm and 8ohm. 6ohm setting means 6 and less, so select this option. Now you can turn the unit off by using STANDBY/ON. Now when you turn it on again, it will use these new settings.

Is input source set correctly? These recievers need to be set up correctly when installing. Set input to component, hdmi, whatever you are using...check connections at back check that audio is coming from Cable ot sat box,,,by inserting in into CD line in or a similar input..
