HTR 5790 Can an IPOD be hooked up to this and play music from IPOD?

Try hooking up the Spkrs sometimes if there is no load the override will shut the unit down so things don't blow.

See the answer I provided the first time you posted this....

Hi,
On the back of the Receiver plenty of "RCA inputs" ..you can use any of it except
"Phone /turntable" input and than select it from control knob the relevant input..
Take care and pls remember to rate me..
Thanks

The remote for your unit is the RAV-238. You can purchase a replacement here:

there is a post to this already about checking your voltage inside the unit on the back right hand side and how that is done. my guess is your system is set up with all your other devices hooked into one wall outlet and you overloaded it. Or maybe used a ext amplifier to increase your wattage. IF you try out holding down the ABCD method as described and press input? it may overide the factory setting when the unit experience any type of power malfunction.

Yamaha does make a docking station for the iPod but your receiver doesn't have the input for it. You can use this cable, http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=208112882&listingid=57249305 and connect the cables to the back of the receiver. To set up the iPod tv out settings go here http://macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2005/11/18/video-ipod.html . Good luck!

If it doesn't have a jack made for plugging Mp3 players into it like the new car stereo's do than you just have to go buy an FM transmitter that is made for Mp3 players. It will play through one of your low FM frequency's on your receiver. You can generally pick one up for around $20

Make sure you have set blu ray player out put to bitstream,if you have set to pcm for hd master audio and dolby true you need to have a amp to decode this and hook up with a hdmi cable.If your amp has hdmi in and out but no high def audio you may still get multi channel audio.

Hope this helps.
CABLE GUY.

Took my Yamaha HTR 5790 to a repair shop for an estimate to repair. Cost me $50 for estimate to be applied to repair. It needed two circuit boards replaced at a cost of $390.00.

 

SOLUTION... they kept my $50 and I bought a new AV Receiver that WAS NOT a Yamaha.

 

WOW this worked.. Hold down the ABCDE and the preset tuning right arrow and then hit power.. It puts it into a diagnostic mode, but it stays on.. I just rerouted my video to not use the receiver  and the audio works perfectly now.
