Audio problem with Yamaha

[christian Gaze]

My system for tv and radio is:
Shared dish in apartment block
2 coax to Humax Foxsat HDR into a Yamaha RX V467 AV amp
interconnections by HDMI cables
5 speaker surround speakers plus sub
Problem is:
Audio on TV HD channels is fine
Audio on radio and non-HD channels is suddenly non-existant
I've checked and re-fitted the coax to the Humax and all other connections with a squirt of contact cleaner
No settings have been altered.
Any thoughts anyone please ?

My guess is that the DVR has had a bad firmware update. The older non HD material will not have HDCP codes, and this is just a guess, that the DVR will not pass properly without HDCP codes. I would get onto Humax and see what they have to say.

What do you mean by no audio on the radio? Is this satellite radio, or the radio in the Yamaha receiver?

Hi, thanks for your response, radio is via the satellite, direct fm into the Yamaha works ok ish

Dollars to doughnuts that is a bad firmware upgrade.

Unless they come out with another update, you will have to make an SPDIF optical or coax connection from the DVR to the receiver for non HD sources.

Thanks for the suggestions with this, Humax Foxsat came up with the solution which was to power down swap the input co-axial cables, and do a factory reset. This cured it
