Ugh, it's deja vu all over again...

I am trying to get this amp set up. I have speakers hooked up and got sound ok through 2 channel inputs from vcr. I connected HDMI cable from Samsung BD player 2500 to the HDMI1 input on Amp.

Can not get any audio.

I'm trying to go back to square one with the manual and go through the setup.
Some issues there: They tell you to use component cables, no mention of HDMI until later in the manual. I also can't see the onscreen setup, I have not hooked my projector to the amp, and I had not planned to.

I currently have component out from the BD player to the project and HDMI to the amp. Should this work? Am I just missing the magic button I need to press? I have cycled inputs and selected HDMI as source, but no luck thus far. Also the previous owner has some inputs set up that maybe I should undo if I can.

I thought HDMI was supposed to be easy!

Again, I am going to be going through the manual but thought I better put a post up asap just in case I can't figure it out on my own!!

Thanks for any suggestions

Note: I bought a name brand HDMI cable that is 3 feet long.

I have also tried both bitstream and PCM. I'm trying to use PCM currently.
I am not currently using a blu-ray disc, just a SD disc of LOTR to try and get audio to come through.

Fixed it... finally got in to setup menus, had to turn COMP off and HDMI ON. I figured I could have them both on but it didn't liek that.
