Help with ARC with Samsung PN58C800 and Denon AVR-591

The ARC only works with HDMI #1 and will work with any receiver.

Hi Jim, was the DVI to HDMI cable connected to the reciever or Tv?

i might have a problem that can be fixed by your approach:
Currently i have an HTPC and a XBOX via HDMI connected to my Denon 3311 AVR. My TV is connected vie ARC.

When I turn on the TV to watch cable tv via the integrated TV Tuner, I do not have any sound via Denon AVR (input source is set to TV, ARC and Anynet is activated).

Accidentally I found the workaround: when I turn on the HTPC in the background without doing any source changes etc at both TV and AVR, my Denon suddenly plays sound coming from the TV channel.

When I turn on the TV and switch to XBOX or HTPC I have sound directly but when watching TV I need to activate the HTPC (it does not work though if I start the xbox). When I turn off the HTPC shortly afterwards I still have sound.

It seems that switching on the HTPC it triggers the sound for my TV channels on Denon.

How could that be possible? Any solution to that?
I will try disconnecting my CD PLayer, which is connected via cinch to my Denon. And also the XBOX and HTPC and check whether I will have sound directly without the workaround.

In the meantime, can you tell me where the problem might stem from?

Thanks.

I have a different problem. I have a Samsung UN55D6420 and a Denon 2112 receiver. I would like to use ARC to send my OTA tv signal to my amp. I also have a mac mini with HDMI to the amp and into HDMI 2 (ARC) on the TV. When I turn on everything and go to use my Mac Mini it gets hijacked and turns the input on my receiver to TV. How do I get it to not do this?

You posted in a thread that is almost 1 year old and also would be much better served posting further questions in the Denon XX12 Owner's thread linked in my sig.

That said, when you set Anynet+ to ON on the Sammy to pass audio via ARC, the default is for the AVR to switch to the "TV" input. The solution is to turn Anynet+ OFF when you are not using it.

I have a Sony 55hx929 connected via HDMI to my Denon 3312. How to I get Netflix which is streaming on the TV to have audio through the 3312?

As this is a 3312CI related question, you're much better served posting in the XX12 Owner's thread linked in my sig.

Hi,

I had the same problem with my Samsung ue46es6300 and Denon 2113.

I solved it with a new HDMI cable (HDMI Highspeed,ethernet ,ARC and 3D support)

Hi noobnoob,

I have almost the same setup. Samsung UE55ES6800 + Denon 2113.

Did you do any tricks? I can't get the TV audio through the HDMI cable. Just to make sure I already replaced the HDMI cable.

I'm using "TV Audio" source in the Denon 2113 and I also tried to change Audio Inputs, but I could not get the audio working. Did you do any changes on the TV side?

Thanks a lot for your support.
