I have a Time Warner Cable Box, Blu Ray Player, and Wii all connected to my Denon 791 receiver. The cable box and blu-ray are hooked up with HDMI cables, and the Wii with a component. One HDMI goes from the AVR to the TV.
Everything works fine, except that on some cable channels, the audio cuts in and out. I looked this problem up on the forum, and read that it might be an issue with the HDMI cable.
I have had this problem with the 3 cable boxes I've had in the last year - all using the same set up. I've tried setting the cable box to "HDMI," "Dolby Digital" and "Other" The channels I have this problem with are working fine for the next door neighbor.
I ordered an optical cable from monoprice, and while waiting, I hooked up the cable box to the AVR with an analog cable. I changed the cable box audio to "Other" and the AVR input to "analog" and the sound problem was fixed. But the AVR put out audio as "Stereo"
When I got the optical cable, I hooked that up, and changed the cable box to "Dolby Digital". I set the AVR input under CAB/SAT as "O1", and input mode as "Digital" with decode "Auto" - But I had the same problem I had with the HDMI cable. Any suggestions?
