Hi
I have connected Pioneer DVD recorder (DVR-550HX-S) to Pioneer Receiver (VSX-LX60) via a HDMI cable, and I have also connected the receiver to the Pioneer plasma TV (pdp-lx508a) via HDMI cable.
Now, when I play DVD on player, I can see the video on TV but I can not hear any sound from TV. I can hear the sound via receiver to my external speakers. Is there any configuration I am missing?
I thought HDMI cables provide both video and audio. Some times I just wish to hear the DVD sound via TV speakers and not receiver's speakers.
When the Receiver is OFF and I play DVD, I can see the picture/video on TV, but no sound on TV! It should be possible according to the Receiver's manual.
In the Receiver manual page 65 as note1, it says:
"Note 1 • When HDMI Control is set to ON, the audio/video signals input at the HDMI IN terminals are output at the HDMI OUT terminal even when this receiver is switched off."
But it does not as it says. No audio to TV when it is OFF!!
I can hear the sound on TV, if I switch off the HDMI Control on Receiver , and set the audio param to "PASS THROUGH". But by this the Receiver must be turned on all the time, and you have to change different settings all the time. Is there any better solution?
Hope some body can help.
Thanks in advance.
