Sorry for my ignorance....

 

Bought a Samsung UN55F6300 smart tv. Had an older Sony receiver that didnt have HDMI. So I upgraded to the Yamaha RX-V375 receiver (cheap but, had 4 hdmi ports).

 

Have the TV working with cable box fine, cable remote will turn off the tv, and receiver, no issues.

 

My question is how do I send sound to the receiver from an online source like Netflix? I have was able to do this fine on the Sony, but when I change inputs on the receiver the TV turns off.

 

Is there a way for the TV sound to go through HDMI or amy I stuck using the audio out on the tv into the receiver?

 

 

Thanks Steve

you can use HDMI or the optical out port on the TV. Using the optical out is more stable. you'll have less issues.

I had exactly the same situation when trying to play the built-in Pandora app on my smart TV. I found that if I hit the "Audio 1" button on the Yamaha remote right before clicking on the TV Pandora app it worked.
