Recently, I replaced all my RCA analog sound cable interconnects between the A/V Receiver and DVD player/cable box/DVD Changer with TOSLINK cables. Unfortunately, I cannot hear any sound from both DVD changer and TV (cable box). Only the DVD player works fine. Any help/advice to troubleshoot this problem would be appreciated.
Here is my set up:
A/V Rcvr - Denon AVR-3803
DVD Player - Oppo 981 HD
DVD Changer (used primarily as a CD player) - Panasonic DVD-CP67S
Cable Box - Scientifc Atlanta HD Set Top Box (Time Warner cable).
All I did was the following:
1. I removed the original analog interconects.
2. Replaced them with TOSLINK cables from digital OUTPUT from each of these devises to Digital INPUT on the Denon.
3. Assigned the Digital Inputs to the devices on the Denon Receiver.
The Oppo DVD worked fine with Audio, no sound from Panasonic DVD changer and TV audio via cable box. While the Panasonic manual is less than clear, I figured I needed to change the default Audio settings on the DVD player to enable Digital Audio. The 4 options that are provided for this DVD changer are:
PCM Down Conversion - set this to YES (default value NO)
Dolby Digital - "Bitstream" (default value was "Bitstream", did not change it).
DTS Digital Surround - set it to "Bitstream" (default value OFF)
Dynamic Range Compression - OFF (default was OFF, did not change it)
No luck after making these changes as well.
Thanks
