Good going BTW - did you check for latest firmware for the AVR?

Ron, did you resolve all of this?

It appears Yamaha will soon be releasing AVRs with both DTS X & ATMOS! Looking forward to see what's up with those I hope the speaker positions are similar otherwise the HT will look ridiculous! For example if DTS X follows the current 11.2 placement with the 4 "effect" speakers higher up...

And of course you tried changing the BD's HDMI cable for another known good (1.3a or above) one.... And tried a few different BR discs....
