This is my FIRST POST! I'm glad to have found this place, and hope everyone can offer me some advice. I'm going to try and detail my problem as much as possible...
I've got a Sony STR-DE885 receiver and I want to be able to use one video source while using another audio source. For instance, my cable box (Pioneer 1100) uses Digital Audio out (also RCA but no thanks). The only Digital Audio IN on my receiver is for DVD/LD.
So I've got my cable box's video going to Video1 on the receiver (S-video), and my audio going to DVD/LD (digital coax). Now when I switch my receiver to Video1, I have picture but no sound; when I switch it to DVD/LD, I have sound but no picture! On the receiver itself. I can manually select the proper audio/video sources, and everything works the way I want it, but it doesn't save the settings; just keeps them temporarily. Once I switch to say, TV/SAT, and go back to Video1, I've got the same probem all over again. Anyone got any ideas on how to change the default audio/video sources for each Function on the receiver? The Sony manual, as always, is little or no help at all...
