Pass through HDMI: Does this model have pass through HDMI I don't always want to turn everything on.

I've only had mine for 3 days, but I seem to have some kind of Stand-by audio passthrough. I read a couple of user reports that said the same thing, or showed various workarounds. I have a new Panasonic 50" 3D plasma that is connected to the AVX-920-K with new high speed HDMI cable (it's the ONLY connection to the 920-K), and with the A/V receiver turned completely off (Standby), I still have audio through my integral TV speakers, the volume of which can be adjusted with the TV remote. This allows for use of the TV for mundane things like the news and weather without having to fire up the receiver. For BluRay, movies, music, etc, I can fire up the receiver, and if the TV is running, audio switches to Surround sound in one of the Stereo modes, and volume control is thru the receiver. I took my time in setting up the receiver when it finally came (several blizzards in the midwest and New England delayed it enroute), and I read the manual thoroughly, including the numerous footnotes seemingly at the bottom of most pages. I don't know how I arrived at having Standby audio pass-through---I just followed the instructions in the manual during set-up, and everything is high-speed HDMI cables with ethernet except the Wii, which is composite, but is also plugged into the receiver now, and works fine. I'm very happy with the whole shebang now, so I'm not gonna change any of it.

Yes it does. Per page 52 on the manual you can select which HDMI input you want passed through during standby to the output HDMI port. You can also set it to LAST (which means the last HDMI source used becomes the standby pass through.

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.

You don't have to unplug the unit. Simply hold the power button down for 10 seconds and it will switch it off. Press the power button again and the problem will be resolved. This is a handshaking problem between your HDMI device and the receiver.

If your receiver passes-through the HDMI signal, then you don't need to turn the receiver on. Not all receivers do this, however. If yours does, just connect the various components to the switch's inputs, run the output to the receiver and from the receiver to the TV.

The Best Buy sales person told me today it does not have pass through on it. You have to go with the next model to get the pass through feature.

Well, if you read the fine print, the VS has HDMI on "Select models only." This one does NOT have HDMI.

Your HDMI video and audio signals will pass through the receiver when it is "off". The receiver does not have to be "on".

HDMI connections are actively switched in the unit when it's ON. There is no "standby" for these connections to pass through passively when the power is off.

Haven't experienced that with mine. I suggest connecting it to a shorter SDI cable and see if you get the same result. Also try with different HDMI cable as well.

No, this doesn't have a pass thru. Get the 3.5"hd model and it has a pass thru so you would still have a port for your monitor.

yes it does. If you run HDMI to the TV from the receiver out, you can get the receiver inputs without power. However, when I tried using the HDMI control functions, I found that I couldn't turn up the volume on my TV with the TV remote. I might have a compatibility issue or I just need to play around with is ome more to get the settings right

Mine did this also. I don't have the manual handy, so my terms may be off, but here is my remembrance of the problem. There are settings that detect the HDMI source into the reciever. In the settings somewhere, there is a setting which allows the unit to automatically decide which HDMI source to default to. You need to disable this option. Look in the manual, it's in there.

When I power on the receiver is on the hdmi input that was set when I turned it off. I don't know if you can make one input the default when powered on? But would like to know if you can...I use the iPad Pioneer iControlav app which makes switching the input and controlling the receiver very easy.

is this random, or when you're using the remote, or a pass through device. You have to make sure your device is compatible with the pass through, which means checking the menu settings for both the receiver and the device (tv, blu ray, etc) I had this same issue with my tv - sony bravia - because it was trying to control the cable box, tv and receiver, and the settings were making it go nuts.

I have not used the device as a pass-through to the television. I only use it to capture from VCR to the computer.
