Hey guys, new here, first post.
I've come to you all because I'm having an issue and I'm hoping someone here can help me fix it.
The subject/title of this thread is what I purchased earlier today. After putting everything together, running the setup and auto calibration, I ran into some issues.
First off. This thing has no, I mean NONE, Video inputs. That sucked. Then I read in the owners manual that it will take the audio signal from the TV and do it's thing with that.
I'm running a 37" Olevia TV with a PS3, Xbox and HD Cablebox hooked up to it. So I went out and bought a optical audio cable for it. After hooking it up from TV to the HT Brain, I found that I could only hear the menu sound effects for my PS3/Xbox if I was on the TV/Video setting on the HT, obviously, but as soon as I changed my TV's source over to the desired Component or HDMI source for either system, I would lose all sound.
A quick settings change seemed to remedy this problem. I could now hear the menu's on the desired source on my TV. However, whenever I jump into a game, or a BlueRay from either console, I lose all sound once again. Zip, nadda, nothing. The only way to bypass this is to hook the Xbox's AV Stereo sound cables directly up to the HT but what am I to do with my PS3? It's running HDMI into my TV and if I hook up the Optical cable and run it to the HT's TV/Video Digital input spots I still get nothing.
At this point in time. I've got the Xbox connected completely to the TV. The PS3 Connected completely to the TV. Then finally the Optical cable running from the TV's digital optic out to the HT's digital optic in. I can get sound from the HT while watching normal TV but it's plagued by a hideous echo if I turn it up too loud and I've currenly found now way, either in trouble shooting or in the setup manual, to fix this and sync the audio to the video. That sync feature, as I understand it from the manual, is only available to the DVD setting while watching a movie.
Help? This was a birthday present from my mother and I don't want to have to take it back for something else, I'd love to make it work for me.
