I cannot link to my Onkyo with my cable provider (only sound, no image). All my other HDMI sources work perfectly. I see the word digital under the CBL option, but not the others...

Hello Scott, to be able to guide you, in wiring so that you can have everything in your home theater system, you should comment that equpos you have
I can suggest a generic connection to have the sound of each source in Tu Onkyo
You have to connect the equipment that has HDMI output, in the corresponding entries in your Onkyo, accounts with only three inputs, if you have more than three equipment with HDMI, you can connect it to an HDMI input on the TV
If you have other equipment that does not have an HDMI output, you should connect it to the remaining inputs of the Onkyo, according to its type
Then, you connect an HDMI-HDMI cable from the HDMI output of the Onkyo, to the HDMI 1 input, of the TuTV Insignia
And you also have to have a Fiber Optic cable, connected from the digital audio output of the TV (it is located on the side panel of connections) to the Fiber Optic input (Digital In) n ° 1 of the Onkyo, this connection allows you to listen to the sound on the Onkyo of everything you are looking for on the Internet, eg Netflix, YouTube, etc.
In this way you would already have everything connected in the Onkio and you could enjoy the sound of the Home Cinema System
I hope you manage to interconnect everything and you can enjoy a good sound and an excellent image
I send you the links of the user manuals of TV Insignia and Onkyo, in case you need more information

Hola Scott, para poder guiarte, en cableado para que puedas tener todo en tu sistema de cine en casa, deberias comentar que equipos tienes
te puedo sugerir una conexi?n gen?rica para tener el sonido de cada fuente en Tu Onkyo
Tienes que conectar los equipos que tengan salida HDMI, en las entradas correspondientes en tu Onkyo, cuentas solamente con tres entradas, si tienes mas de tres equipos con HDMI, puedes conectarlo a una entrada de HDMI en el televisor
Si tienes otros equipos que no tengan salida HDMI, los deber?s conectar en las entradas restantes del Onkyo, de a cuerdo a su tipo
Luego, conectas un cable HDMI-HDMI desde la salida HDMI del Onkyo, hasta la entrada HDMI 1, del tu TV Insignia
Y tambi?n tienes que tener un cable de Fibra ?ptica, conectado desde la salida de audio digital del televisor (se encuentra en el panel lateral de conexiones) hasta la entrada de Fibra ?ptica (Digital In) n°1 del Onkyo, esta conexi?n te permite escuchar el sonido en el Onkyo de todo lo que buscas en Internet, ejemplo Netflix, YouTube, etc
De esta manera ya tendr?as conectado todo en el Onkyo y podr?s disfrutar del sonido del Sistema de Cine en Casa
espero que logres interconectar todo y puedas disfrutar de un buen sonido y una excelente imagen
Te env?o los link de los manuales de usuario del TV Insignia y del Onkyo, por si necesitas mas informacion

It sounds like you don't fully understand the Onkyo's HDMI port assignment procedures.

But why burden an HDMI cable with audio only? Don't you have a coaxial digital or spdif optical output on the PC you could use? That would make things simpler for setup. Just jam it into one of the appropriate audio inputs on the Onkyo.

HDMI has had a multitude of issues and yours is one of them. Your receiver has either 1.1,1.2,1.2a ver HDMI. If it's still under warranty, you can have it upgraded to 1.3b which is the current and working version. So far so good. If it's out of warranty, it's a 200-300 $ repair. If you just use HDMI directly to your TV, providing you have enough HDMI inputs on the set, you can just run optical or digital coaxial to the receiver and all will work fine. Hope this helps.

Are you trying to record cable programming with your DVD recorder? If so, you might want to try using component cable as HDMI does have a copy protection circuit that might be preventing your recorder from receiving the image. Just try to connect the cable box component (RED/GREEN/BLUE) cable to your DVD recorder. If that doesn't work, then try to change everything over to component cables. HDMI is a great cable to use but it the only required to display 1080p images and the only current source that uses 1080p is a bluray player. Everything else, such as your cable box and DVD recorder is 1080i and component cables are perfect for it. 

Not sure if this is your fix, but I had what I thought was the same problem. I played with my Onkyo quite a bit ensuring the correct assignments for HDMI, audio and all that stuff. Turns out I neglected to make sure the output devices were properly assigned. Many devices aren't default to output sound over HDMI. I changed the audio out settings on the cable box to HDMI and suddenly the Onkyo worked great. I know, I'm an idiot for not checking that in the first place, but maybe someone out there is having the same trouble as well.

Unfortunately only the higher end Onkyo Reciever pass audio over HDMI for sound. 605,705,805,905 exc. Your reciever will carry Video over HDMI but you will need a digital optical cable for sound.



thanks.

Since you have the cable connected to the reciever thru the HDMI, you may have accidently changed the input source of the reciever from HDMI or digital to analog.

When you have the reciever set to listen to the cable, check the input mode and make sure it is set to use the HDMI or digital input and not the analog.
The rca jacks are analog, and they worked, so I think you have just solved your own problem without realizing it.

Let me know if this works and if so a good rating would be appreciated. Thanks and have a great day

I have a sr605 Onkyo receiver and just hooked it up to a new Mitsubishi 73" and I could not get the picture to work, sound did though. Here is the problem the Onkyo is HDMI 1.3 but TV calls for HDMI 1.3a. There is a big difference between the 2 and the Onkyo will not work with TV. The newer model TV'S say in the manual Category 2 V 1.3a. You need to make sure that all your parts are compatable. It makes a big difference.

Could well be the quality of your cables. if you have high end cables the consult a service agent. if you have the cables that came with the products, go and get some better ones.
