    YPAO setting Sub distance to 1 ft

    Cushion. I didn't have a tripod available (though I've found one since). Is that my issue? Easily solved if so.

    YPAO setting Sub distance to 1 ft

    I've run YPAO on my Yamaha V377 and it gives me 1ft as the distance for my sub (it's about 9 ft away) . Now I realize that sub distance is sometimes not physical distance but I thought it was usually further than actual distance not much shorter. Should I adjust this or leave it alone?

    Using HDMI for Video and Optical for Audio on Yamaha AVR

    Yes. My fault that I didn't state that clearly. I just need the video to the TV but the problem was that if I changed the receiver to the digital audio channel (AV1) the screen went blank (as I assume the receiver was trying to output the video through component and the only link from the...

    Yamaha receiver\speakers intermittently cut out on BR player only

    Yeah I was thinking those stated throughputs were far beyond necessary. Like buying a production car that does 200 mph and driving it in NYC.Edit: I guess the more apt analogy would be building Talladega Motor Speedway for horse and carriage racing.

    Using HDMI for Video and Optical for Audio on Yamaha AVR

    I Is it possible to take the Video from an HDMI input (HDMI 1) and the optical audio in (AV1) and output it through the HDMI out on a Yamaha RX-V377? There doesn't seem to be any indication that is possible in the manual but wanted to ask before buying a converter.Uverse's STB will only output...

    Yamaha receiver\speakers intermittently cut out on BR player only

    I generally buy the premiums from Monoprice and they are very inexpensive and I agree the expensive ones don't seem to make a difference. I was mainly asking about the standards (1.3a, 1.4, etc) in case there were multiple standards of HDMI available (similar to how Ethernet is available in Cat...

    Yamaha receiver\speakers intermittently cut out on BR player only

    OK. I'm going to pick up a new HDMI on the way home just in case. I'm not sure how old the ones I have are. If not I'll try a factory reset and then reconnect all HDMI "cold". BTW, I see people mention HDMI by standard version number (e.g. 1.3a) but that spec never seems to be located on...

    Yamaha receiver\speakers intermittently cut out on BR player only

    I have used the Roku with plex sending DTS 5.1 audio on the same HDMI cord to check it with no problems so I think the HDMI is fine. I did not plug the Yamaha in until everything was hooked up. The TV and BD player were both plugged into a strip but the strip was turned off. I assumed that was...

    OK. I'll try that tonight. If it doesn't work, I'll post additional info on the player (it is at least 3 years old).Thank you.

    Yamaha receiver\speakers intermittently cut out on BR player only

    Sorry, I meant to include that the problem started before I set impedance (which I originally thought was the issue) but it happens at 8 ohm and 6 ohm.I'll try the crossover again but wouldn't a crossover issue cause issues across all the sources? My media on my NAS that I play over ROKU has the...

    Yamaha receiver\speakers intermittently cut out on BR player only

    Not home right now to check but I believe the receiver said PCM which means the player is decoding, right?

    Yamaha receiver\speakers intermittently cut out on BR player only

    I just put in an RX-V377 Yamaha receiver and a 5.1 Yamaha speaker package (4 small frontsurrounds, center and active sub). Ran YPAO and made minimal other adjustments. Everything works fine when I'm watching cable or my Roku but anything played on the Sony Blu-Ray player cuts out over and over...
