I have the cable in the Digital Audio out on the TV and into the Digital Audio in on the receiver. I turned the speakers on the TV off. I turned the receiver to the DTV/CBL MODE. Problem is I am not getting any sound. FYI I have Bose Acoustimass 10 Series 111 speaker system hooked up to the receiver. Any ideas on how I can make this work?}
You've cabled it correctly. But on the TV there are settings for the Digital output, Off, PCM, and Dolby. Make sure you've set this correctly on the TV, and the Receiver.
SOURCE: Playstation 3 audio connection into Yamaha HTR-6040 AV Receiver
Solved problem with Yamaha HTR-6040 AV Receiver. My daughter had inadvertently changed the program to "Direct Stereo" mode which allows sources to bypass the decoders and DSP processors so you can listen to 2-Channel PCM and Analog sources. Nothing to decode digital audio in this setting!
SOURCE: Yamaha HTR-6130 sound only from centre, rear or front speakers
its not how there connected its in your settings. rehook up all your speaker connections properly,then make sure you proram the reciever to recieve fiber optic,hdmi,digital coax etc in the reciver.
SOURCE: Yamaha HTR-5750 no sound when I turn to the DTV/Cable setting
If you are not getting sound on "Any" input except "multi channel" you have a bad DSP chip in the receiver.In short, you need a new receiver, it's a 500.00 repair. If you get sound on "All" inputs except "DTV/CBL" You need to get into the main menu of the Yamaha and select audio, toggle to input, then DTV/CBL and select "Auto". If you still do not get audio, it would be due to the version of HDMI software in your receiver. If it's under warranty, Yamaha will update hardware and software for you at N/C. If it's out of warranty, use digital coaxial or optical as your audio input for TV and run your HDMI directly to the TV. (The repair for this too would run 250-350) I hope I've covered all the possibilities. If you need further help, post a comment and I can help you more.
