How do I route my cable and DVD player through the receiver to the TV to get it all to work?
I am not getting audio or video from the avr-488. I am running component cables (red, green, blue, + audio) from my comcast cable box to the receiver.
In the instructions: it directs me to input the component video cables to the assignable component video inputs on the back of the unit. When programing the unit it only gives me options of HDMI input, coax 1 or 2, or optical cable 1 or 2 inputs, not for the component section.
My Denon DVD player (DVD-588) works, when plugged directly into the tv, but no feed through the receiver.
I have HDMI cables going from the Denon DVD Player out to the receiver, and HDMI cable from the Monitor output on the reciever to the TV.
My concast cable box has a DVI output on the back. I am going to try to get a new cable box with HDMI output to see if that works.
If you don't have one, the manual is available online: http://static.highspeedbackbone.net/pdf/AVR-488-OM-E_101.pdf
Suggestions:
1. Reset to default values. Per page 36 of manual: 1. Turn off Power. 2. Press Power while simultaneously pressing Speaker A and Speaker B. 3. Once the display starts flashing at intervals of about 1 second, release the two buttons.
2. Make sure you have AM or FM radio reception. This makes sure your speakers, amps, etc are connected and working correctly.
3. Connect DVD player to HDMI 1 in and TV to HDMI Monitor Out.
Play a known good DVD that works when you connected the DVD directly to the TV via HDMI.
Select the DVD/HDP input on the receiver and play the DVD. You should not have to perform any input assignments, etc. It should just work, as HDMI1 is the default system setting for DVD.
4. If possible, obtain a STB with HDMI out & repeat step 3 using the HDMI2 TV/CBL input. Keeping the signal path all digital (HDMI) will give you a better picture quality than forcing several analog to digital conversions (component video is analog).
4A. To use the component connection, first test by connecting the STB directly to the TV via component video/audio if possible. This tests that the component video output of the STB is working correctly.
Next, remove direct connection and connect via receiver. Connect STB to receiver as shown on page 13 in manual. Connect component video output from STB to component video input #2 (tv/cbl) on receiver. Connect the STB audio output to the corresponding tv/cbl audio inputs.
Make sure nothing is connected to the HDMI2 input or to any other TV/CBL inputs (composite video, s-video, digital coax audio).
Now select the TV/CBL input and turn on the STB. You should have both audio & video.
SOURCE: no HDMI video output from AVR-588 receiver to plasma TV ???
You can also use a digital coax cable (color orange) to go into coax 1 for DVD coax 2 for cable box. Just make sure to set the coax in input settings. The coax cables are a little cheaper than the optical cables and work just as well.

How is the receiver connected to the TV? HDMI?
