Onkyo TX-SR608 - Keep Audio off when TV turns off

[lordstylz]

Hey couldn't find an answer to my question through a search so here it goes.

I have Onkyo SR608 that I recently got to replace my now defunct Denon A/V Home theater. One thing that my Denon used to be able to do however is when I turned off my TV the audio would automatically shut off as well. For some reason the Onkyo does this at first (turns off audio) but then turns the audio back on a few seconds later.

My set up ... Cable > TIVO HD w/ cable card > HDMI IN > Onkyo receiver > HDMI out to TV.

Is there an option I need to turn on/off to just allow me to hit one button to turn the TV off and keep the audio off too?

I am pretty amateur at this so any help would be welcome. Thanks.

If the TV supports HDMI CEC options as the receiver does, there is an option to have the receiver turn on when the TV is turned on (and off). I can't think of the name of the feature off-hand because I don't use it.

What he says. It's a feature added this year that just needs to be turned off.
