why does it default to the blue-ray drive upon powering on? I prefer it going to my cable box first.

Mine always goes to the last option I used when I turn it on. Ie. satellite, game, etc. I am using HDMI cables for all connections to my different devices, XBOX, Direct TV, LCD TV all connected to my Onkyo 7.1 receiver.

I'm not entirely sure about the question. When I power on my PS3 or cable box it will automatically switch to that source. Hope that helps.

Mine too. Doesn't affect anything unless you happen to need to cut the cable right there. I think it's a manufacturing thing.

Power on your television first and let it boot up all of the way. Then power on the home theater system and it will revert to the last input. That has been the work around that I was able to come up with. Good luck!

I believe it is because the cable box is "always on". So even if you turn it off or not the receiver still thinks it is on so it doesn't switch back to it because it doesn't receive a new signal to switch to. This is my understanding anyway. Not sure if there is a workaround for this.

Make sure you have your TV input source on the same one your box is connected to

I had this problem, too. But the manual should state "if the television's POWER is plugged into the back of the cable box." Alas, the TV is three-pronged and the cable box only has a two-prong outlet. I used the function on the cable remote to accomplish this, it's just a little slow to react.

I have owned this tv for about 3 weeks. Picture is great, only issue is volume kicks off every so often , thought it was the high def cable box so I replaced it but get same result, I plan on exchanging tv. Has this volume problem happened to anyone else?

My blue ray does the same thing. I found the mild vibrations around my house knock out the plug from the Blu ray to the tv out about a millimeter. I lowered my blue ray so the wires had more pressure to stay plugged in. Doesn't work perfectly, but it sounds like you might be having a similar problem. I don't watch my DVD's much because of the issue. I am thinking about buying a different model with secure plug ins.

No configuration, just install like the first time and connect to your tv or dvr.you use your old cables.

I'm not sure if the order really matters. You can play around with that though. One thing to know is that the Roku box is an always-on device. The switch is supposed to automatically go to the device that's on. It typically senses when I turn on the Blu-ray player or the Apple TV box and goes to those, even though a Roku box is also plugged in. You might have to use the remote from time to time. I don't find that to be too big a deal though.

This happens on my Panasonic Plasma on rare occasion (3 or 4 times a year.) It also happens with my Vizio LED. I believe its not a TV problem but a cable problem. I have Comcast and sometimes I need to unplug my cable box for a few minutes to re-boot it. Sometimes that works, but more often I'm just getting a bad signal from some unknown link in the chain from a live feed. It annoying but has never lasted. The other 99.9% of the time both TV work great.

Make sure your tv is on the external speaker setting, but if blu ray is ran through the receiver the tv shouldn't have to be on......

I would also like to know if there is a way to make the IN 2 the default input for the blue ray.

Hmm, I have neve really experienced this issue with mine. Having said that, there may not be a SUb channel in the cable station you are listening to. But blu-ray should mostly have the Sub channel.

Yes, they basically worded it incorrectly in the instruction manual. Enabling this feature will remember the On/Off state of the TV when it loses power. So if you unplug it while it is turned on, it will turn itself back on once you plug it back in. It has nothing to do with the video signal. I tried the tech support people and even they weren't aware of this.

I used it in the other direction, with multiple devices into one TV input. Maybe there are HDMI settings in the TVs that will make the cable automatically switch so you don't have to get up and click the switch each time.
