AFAIK, Auto Standby is not affected by ECO mode. If you have it set for 15 minutes .. the AVR should power off 15 minutes later.

Is the x4200 model the one I want if runing a 5.1 setup and adding front height speakers and rear heights?

I currently don't understand the 5.2.4 or whatever yet.

I'm currently runing sep amps to power the 5.1 setup now and wondering if I can use the new reciever to power the 4 extra height channels to make this cheap enough to do?

Yes. The X4200W is the lowest model that can do 5.2.4 by adding at least a 2CH amp.

any ideas i can try later i did update the firmware. I cancsee if it has anymore updates

Hi all 6200 owners
I have changed my set up for 9.2.2
Using f wides
I have tyred a few atmos films to find no sound coming from FW ?
Any one got a clip to recommend to show off f W sound ?

This article mentions extensive use of wides along with listing a number of demo clips in Minions:

http://www.highdefdigest.com/news/sh...-minions/28222

I believe I read Unbroken also uses them quite a bit, but I don't have specific clips.

One note, make sure your receiver is indicating an Atmos source as DSU will not send sound the the wides.

You may want to see the Atmos demo disc thread. There are links to the demo disc with quite a few Atmos demos there and some of them are really nice. I am not at home now so I don't have a link handy, you can probably search it. They may work for you to demo/test.

I realize that longer HDMI cables that support 4K/60hz/18 GBPS are currently iffy (especially if they aren't certified, but maybe even if they are), but I needed to install some 25' cables a couple of weeks ago and read several reports on another AVS forum of people using PlugLug brand 25' cables from Amazon with success where 18 GBPS was required, so I ordered some. I can't personally vouch for them because I don't have a full 4K system in place yet to test them, but they are reasonably priced (about $20) and appear high-quality and well-made. I understand they are certified for in-wall installation (CL3). They are marked (on the actual cable): "High Speed HDMI Cable with Ethernet E358133 (UL) Type CL3 75 Degrees Centigrade 26 E364324 C(UL) CMG 26AWG FT4." Anyway, if you need some reasonably-priced longer cables now, these might be worth trying. Here's the link: http://www.amazon.com/PlugLug-High-S...s=PlugLug+HDMI. I don't know if these are better than other options - only that I read a few reports from different people of them working where other HDMI cables didn't. I have no connection with the company.

Installing an x3200w for a Zone 1 5.1.2 Atmos implementation. The 5 speakers are driven by a Sunfire amp from pre-outs. I also have a stereo set of speakers for Zone 2. I've read the manual but I'm not clear on how to drive the 2 Atmos speakers & Zone 2 with the x3200w amps. I assume I can connect Zone 2 speakers to surround back L/R as I currently have on my x3100w. Can I assign the Front L/R amps to the Atmos speakers? TIA

Sorry, but no as only the "flagship" X7200WA has the capability to assign the unused FL/FR amps to Zone 2. There are only 7 speaker posts on the X3200W. Only the Surround Back speaker posts are assignable and can be used for "either" the 2 Atmos speakers "or" the Zone 2 speakers, otherwise, if you want both, you must use them for the 2 Atmos speakers and then use 2 of the amps on the Sunfire amp or another 2CH amp (eg. AudioSource Amp100 VS - Amazon) to power the Zone 2 speakers via the Zone 2 pre-outs.

A question: When playing a 5.1 DTS-HD Master Audio track, should I be able to select DTS Neural:X? I currently do not get that choice. I have a x4200w with an external amp to power the FL and FR speakers, and I utilize a 7.2.2 setup with Dolby Atmos speakers for the .2. Either it can't be done (needs to be DTS:X or DTS:X MA), or I'm missing a setting somewhere. Thanks in advance.

Play a DTS-MA track.
Press the Movie button on remote
3rd choice from the top is DTS-HD + Neural:X
You have that choice?

I've done that with the music button, but not the movie button. I'm at work now, but I will try that when I get home. Don't know if this makes any difference, but I'm playing back a music blu-ray. One of the choices on the disc is 5.1 DTS HD Master Audio, which I use, and it works just fine. I was just wondering if I could use the Neural:X to get some sound into my other speakers. Thanks for the reply, and I'll post the result later.

It doesn't matter if you use the music button. You will still see this if you play DTS-MA:

Stereo
DTS-HD MSTR
DTS+HD Neural:X
Multi Ch Stereo
The last few choices change depending on if you use the music or movie button

In that case, then no, I don't have that choice. The selections skip from DTS-HD MSTR to Multi Ch Stereo. No Neural:X. That's why I'm wondering if there is some setting I'm neglecting. I do have a choice for Neural:X in other situations, like when I'm playing an SACD or DVD-Audio, or a PCM source.

Edit: I see you have Neural X in other situations. You get that with regular DTS tracks?

Good question! I do have a movie that has a a DTS-ES option. When I get home, I'll give that a try, and let you know. It will be a couple of hours before I get out of here, so you probably won't see my response until tomorrow.

Thanks for your help with this! :-)

I think i figured it out, looks like it has something to do with the hdcp 2.2 not working right with kodi audio pass through. Gonna keep trouble shooting it and update if i find anything else out.

The pass through static audio is a kodi problem, there are experimental builds on their forum attempting to fix the problem, you should try there.

The update: I can choose Neural:X with a DTS 5.1 track. I can select Neural:X with a DTS-ES track (both were movies). However, with a DTS-HD Master Audio track (a blu-ray audio disc), no luck. It could be the fact that it's an audio disc, but that doesn't make any sense to me. Interesting.

How is your AVR configured in "Amp Assign"?

Assign Mode: 9.1ch
Floor
-Layout: 5ch & SB
Height
-Height Sp: None
-Dolby Sp: 2ch
-Layout: Front Dolby
-Pre-out: Front

Basically, I'm running a 7.2.2 system (L, C, R, SL, SR, SBL, SBR, Atmos L and R, with two subwoofers). I use an external amp to power the FL and FR speakers. All other speakers go through the amp. I utilize Atmos with two Atmos speakers on top of my towers.

I've configured my 4200 like that and can select "DTS-HD + Neural:X" from the menu after pressing "Movie" on the remote. Input signal is "DTS-HD MSTR".
I do have the latest firmware. Had to do a "Network Reset" (see post 5) because of some strange behavior. Maybe you should do the same? Don't forget to save your configuration first.

Thanks. What I do for a living necessitates the constant voices in my head saying that same thing - and mostly it is true

But this forum is unique- people here are mostly pretty smart and competent. So,./ but baysian / I am going to put alot of weight on a few well written posts, with clear troubleshooting being done

When someone is describi G the network infrastructure (and not confusion terms) makes me belive it

Further EVERY firmware upgrade from denon talks about networj/airplay fixes - also troubling for something so simple. He'll there is less of that on kodi

I want it not to be true, but I am terrified to spend hours hooking it up only to send it back after my wife can't reliably airplay "hot dog dance" for our toddler.

So not all atmos discs have FW sound
Has any one got a list of one's that do
Put in test disc and in heard the sound bleeding into surrounds as well
What is the fix for this now
You have to change to FH and BH?
Until firmware fix ?

Great now we have Hdmi 2.1

You really didn't think they would stop with 2.0a did you?

😀 well no but it's more inter connection crap to possibly deal with

Dynamic metadata is already a thing with Dolby vision without any new HDMI version. I am now beginning to think that Dolby will be getting much more support than before. The base HdR10 is playing catch up and needs new HDMI hardware to do what Dolby can do already.

If you can do it, I most surely should be able to. I will do the reset this Sunday, when I'm off. I want to have a little time to do some troubleshooting in case anything goes wrong. I'm not totally put off by this issue; everything else seems to work fine, but I do want it to work. I'll keep you informed. Thanks again!
