Hi all,
Just starting my plunge into HT. First purchase was speakers and this receiver. Hooked it up to my DVD player (Samsung M101)using Component video and optical link for Digital sound. Optical link is in the receiver's Opt-1 input.
The receiver on-screen setup has been completed and the receiver's speaker test works as expected.
However, when I set the receiver to EITHER Auto or DTS and then select the DTS Surround. I get NO sound at all. I've selected the DTS sound format on the Sound&Vision HT DVD, and on the Super Speedway DVD. Neither work in DTS, Both work with Neo:6 (which I believe is just a DTS version of Dolby Prologic). Is there something else I need to do?
The other "strange" thing is: Dolby Digital with the S&V DVD. The surround sound test plays the rear speakers in mono.... however, the beginning of the sound chapter plays just fine..... i.e. you hear sounds only from the right rear. Any suggestions? I've read the manual (really!) several times, all the OSD and setup "appears" correct. BTW, my speaker setup is for 5.1, so I turned off the SB (surround back speakers)
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
