I can't record with my dvr using hdmi cable to receiver. I also have to use av from dvr to Dish av out jacks

Suggestions....Does the problem migrate to a different HDMI port if you move the cable on the back of the AV Receiver? I also note that at times, the HDMI switching function command doesn't always work if I use a universal remote (eg Logitech, but it does if I use the factory Yamaha remote. Last but not least, I would also change out the cable. I have my Monitor on HDMI 1, DVR on 2, Chromecast on 3, DVD on 4. You should always put the monitor on HDMI 1.

This receiver won't cross-convert your HDMI input into the analog outputs; the receiver will only pass analog inputs to the analog outputs on the receiver, likewise with the HDMI input/output stage. Refer to p.100 of the manual for a graphic depicting the stages.

Hello Frank, I am so sorry I cannot answer your question. When I received the receiver I couldn't get any sound. I sent it back and received a replacement the next day from Amazon and no sound from that one. I sent it back and had my receiver repaired. I spoke to 2 different techs at Yamaha. The first one told me I had a defective unit and to send it back. The second tech told me my HDMI equipment is outdated, which I know is B. S. Yamaha manufactures super keyboards and electronic pianos (which I have) but they are not in the ball park when it comes to receivers. I recommend sending it back and purchasing another brand. Mine is a Pioneer and the problem was resolved with redoing the auto sound feature. My repair cost was minimal and since I could not find my mic for the auto feature the repair man had a used on that he sold to me very inexpensively. This Yamaha has this same feature too but still did not give sound even after doing the auto feature several times. May my Lord bless you on finding a resolution. He helped me. Bobby Blule

The back of the DVR has a video output (v-out.) Using the same type of cabling that came with the unit, you can connect to a video input on your TV. You may need some adapters for the plugs, depending on your setup.

How did you connect the recorder to the TV? The back panel can be a confusing since other than the HDMI output, all the various inputs and outputs are mixed together. If you're using component video (the three jacks in a column marked Y, Pb/Cb, Pr/Cr) make sure you haven't mixed the cables up when connecting them to your TV.

Not sure how to answer this. Do you have a DVR? If so yes I hooked it up to my qsee dvr and it works great

It likely has nothing to do with the receiver. You may need to go to the cable/satellite receiver settings and change it to HDMI output.

Yes! At first I checked in the Manual. After I connect my DVR to the TV, result: nothing on the screen:-( even playback mode. Ok I checked the cable. It was loose. Prepare yourself to adjust the two little bump on the HDMI cable camera side, those should lift up a little bit in order to get solid contact. After everything was seen on BOTH screen (DVR and TV). Good luck!

Not sure Thomas, I returned the system due to some issues with exporting footage of the DVR. However, when I was testing this system, it did seem like as long as you had a long enough cable, the system captures (but not exports) fine.

If you do not have an ARC HDMI connection on your TV use the digital output on your TV to the digital Input on your receiver with a Toslink cable. This is what I had to do and it works perfectly.

Just wanted to point out since other people referred to an HDMI cable. You cannot use an HDMI cable to capture from the PS3 because of HDCP. You will need to use the A/V breakout cable or something that will strip the HDCP.

Not that I recommended this device - I returned it. But, which line out are you using from your receiver? Normally for this type of operation you would take the "record" line out

I'm a little confused. My model has a hdmi port on the back of the dvr and I can connect it with a standard hdmi cable. All I need to do is connect the hdmi cable then set the tv to the hdmi port I connected it to. Perhaps you can give more details. Also explain the need for a vga to hdmi converter. Does your dvr not have the hdmi port.

Dear Gary,Best way to connect this is to run an HDMI from your DVR to the Denon soundbar followed by an HDMI from the soundbar to your television.Eric C.World Wide Stereo

Thanks! That makes sense. I did get a message that said something about HDCP. Can you recommend any HDMI cables that are HDCP compatible? I was trying to avoid spending a ton of money on one, but maybe I just have to. I also read on avsforum about firmware updates, etc. I guess I'll try a new cable before contacting Samsung.

Don't know. I have the receiver hooked to a DVR at home to record the video. I guess you could connect remotely to the DVR to monitor which camera channel you wanted to watch.

Yes, use the hdmi setting on your dvr and change the settings on your comp to output via dvi.

Hmmm, I am pretty sure my Set840 is plugged into the Audio Out of my AV Amplifier. So I control the headset and others the sound from AMP. Also my DISH DVR is using the AMP to put its signal through. I would guess that if your Cable box doesn't have an Audio out --- your outta luck. Buy a cheap AV system.
