I am having HDMI output issues to my HD TV. The issues are intermmitent. I have my HD cable box, BluRay Player both hooked into the reciever via HDMI. The Hdmi output of the reciever feeds my TV. I have had the reciever for about a year and half. It has only been in the last 3-4 months that this problem has developed.

I'm not sure if this will help you but if you can hook your Bluray player directly to TV(HDMI) then out from TV to reciever via HDMI or digital optical, it very well may solve your problem.

Your best hook up is going to be HDMI(out) from bluray and cable box to (in) on tv. The only thing you would need the optical cable for would be sound(out) to a reciever.

srry but the tv is not capable of sending hdmi audio through its outputs the dvd player audio must be run through rca red and white or black if you have digital audio out to the back of the receiver on its own channel

It sounds like the Bluray player may be outputting the signal at a higher resolution than the TV supports. If the Bluray player has a scart or composite connection, connect with those first, and adjust its settings to output a lower resolution. Then reconnect the HDMI. Hope this works for you.

Hi! I will be more than glad to assist you. I f you are going to hook up your cable box - motorola to the sherwood receiver, connect an hdmi cable to the back of the motorola cable box, there is only 1 hdmi output there, then connect the other end to the sherwood receiver on the hdmi input, then connect another hdmi cable to the hdmi output and the other end goes to your rca hd tv.

for the sony dvp, you have only one hdmi out, connect an hdmi cable to the back of the sony dvp if u have another spare. connect it to the hdmi input of the sherwood receiver. there is only 1 hdmi output at the sherwood, so u need to use a component cable to be connected at the back of the sherwood receiver component output then the other end goes to the component input of the hd tv.

if you dont have anymore hdmi cable to hook up your sony dvp, u can use component cable, the connection will goes like this, connect a component cable on the output of the sony dvp and the other end goes to the sherwood component input then connect another component cable to the component output of the sherwood and the other end goes to the rca hd tv on the component input.

I hope this will solve your concern, if you have any question, u can get in touch..

hi i had similar problem, you need to change the settings in the bluray player output to hdmi or auto in other to get sound after the settings turn everything off even from the socket and then turn it back on for that setting to take effect. try this

Try hooking the Panasonic up straight to the tv without going through the receiver. If it displays a picture its obviously not the blu-ray player. May also be a problem with the HDMI cable itself. Hope this helps.

I found that since the Panasonic TH50PZ80U TV has only 2 HDMI ports on the back of the TV, the best solution for me was to use component (red, blue, green) cables to connect the Home Theatre to the TV. I suppose I/you could connect the home theatre to the HDMI port on the front panel, but I don't want cables hanging out the front of the TV (personal preference). Unfortunately, I am no longer able to use the VIERA Link functionality available by connecting all Panasonic components to each other using HDMI cables, but I feel it's a small price to pay for the incredible picture quality acheived by using the HDMI cable to connect the HD Cable Box to the TV. I may yet be able to control everything using the HD Cable Box remote, but I haven't gotten that far yet but I've got Comcast coming on Saturday and hopefully they can let me know if this is possible: let me know if you have a solution.

So here are the components and the cable types used to connect:

1. HD Cable Box to TV: HDMI cable & Optical Audio cable
2. Home Theatre to TV: Red, Blue & Green component cables
3. BluRay Player to TV: HDMI cable

I hope this helps someone else.

OK, I just figured this out. Go to the audio options in your DVD player and switch from pcm to bitstream. Now my movies sound right again.

I have a hdtv hooked up with a virgin v+ box but slight delay Why?
