The bulk of my channels come via HDMI from a Directv box into the Yamaha RXV673 and subsequently to the TV and there are no problems with this. I do not have my local channels through Directv. I have an over the air antenna for this (a "passive" Clearscreen Micron, works great). So I must bring this signal into the TV and send the audio back to the receiver. This appears to be possible. Hopefully it's something I have overlooked that can be adjusted. Thank you in advance for any help with this. John.
Use the optical out from the tv to bring audio back to your receiver. Keep in mind that most tv's require you to go into the setup menu and enable this audio output jack - most default to this jack being disabled.

Hi Whitesox, thanks for the suggestions! I finally got to the bottom of the problem, and it turned out to be the new Toshiba DVD player I recently purchased (model SD5000). I never had to make any adjustments to a DVD player before to make it play dolby digital signals, but this new Toshiba essentially comes with Dolby Digital diabled as its default setting. You have to go into its setup menu and switch it's digital audio mode from PCM to Bitstream. What's strange is that even with the default settings on the Toshiba it would play in DTS mode correctly.

OK try to connect all to tv and from tv connect the sound in digital to H/K receiver and you will have sound at the receiver no matter what.

THE CONVERTER BOX HAS R.F. OUTPUT. JUST HOOK IT UP AND PUT THE T.V. ON CHANNEL 3.(OR WHAT EVER THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT CAM WITH THE BOX) YOU WILL NEED TO CHANGE THE CHANNELS WITH THE REMOTE THAT CAME WITH THE BOX. YOU MIGHT NEED TO SET UP THE BOX (SCAN FOR CHANNELS) THAT IS ALL IN THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT CAME WITH THE BOX.
DON.

If your solely using cable as your main set of channels. Connect the digital audio out from your cable box to the digital audio input on your reciever. Then when broadcast permit you will gey Dolby Digital sound for your TV channels
