Have the HDMI issues that have been taking place in previous models been resolved in this model?

I have had no issues with the HDMI connections. I run HD Satellite & a Blue Ray Player

loved Onkyo receivers x 15 years. Bought my 4th upgrade 3 years ago - top of the line TXNR1007. Loved it, but like many other newer Onkyo users, the outputs including HDMI began to die. Now no output. I am told this may be related to circuit board issues. Won't buy another, until Onkyo tells me that the issue has been resolved

I don't know what the previous issues were. But yes I am having difficulty. Can't seem to get pass thru to work correctly. nd also when I think everything is working, if I shut it off and return he next day nothing is working right.

I haven't had any issues so far. I'm not doing anything fancy like CEC, audio return, etc.

Not aware of any HDMI issues, it's a little confusing with HDMI port assighments. Have ARC working as well with new TV...works great.

Mine is working fine with 3 hdmi devices attached. Did need to use a optical cable from the 4K tv to the amp when using over the air digital is signaled into the tv --- then to the amp. (i don't use cable or sat. tv) Terrific sound -- great 4k video.

My HDMI board went out on me 1 month after the warranty was up. ONKYO did honor the warranty and it was repaired. However, the company that did the repair did not take much care to pack the receiver properly and it was damaged during shipping. I am hoping that the repair last longer than a year.

its not vague its a known issue. my hdmi board also died just a month outside the warranty period. its shocking for a product to have a failure rate like this

I can only tell you that I have had no issues with the HDMI connections. I run HD Satellite & a Blue Ray Player

Have you tried to call their technical support? They were really helpful when I called them. Also, you can always return it. I returned my first one since I had some issues with the sound and got a replacement and it is perfect. Check the HDMI Cable too. You may need to try another one in case it is bad.

To further my non answer: During the limited time the unit was operational, I did not use the USB input, only HDMI. It seemed to have no problem with that input. Now I know why it was a "limited" edition.

I purchased mines from a Sony outlet in December 2010 and the only issue I have had with it is a distorted line on the right side of the screen every so often when it's turned on. The line goes away afte about 10 minutes tho. My son has used it as a gaming tv the last three years and its still the best tv in my house..

this and the 6200 model went up. im just going to wait it out i guess. but the 5200 went down in price. that doesnt do audio thru the hdmi though so its not really an option though.

No the one I have is not, we have had it since Nov 2010 and have not had any problems with it, use it for TV via DirecTV, Wii and xBox and works great in those modes, but would need a blue ray play or something else with it to do NetFlix or Hulu

Mine was a new purchase two years ago and has performed better than any of my previous monitors. I would attempt an exchange with your supplier if you had eliminated possible video card, power or cable problems. Good luck, great monitor.

None of them do. I finally gave up and bought a new TV. That was the only solution I could finally come up with. So much new stuff today requires HDMI.

Yes, and the issues I was experiencing previously have seemed to fix themselves. It's a fine blu ray / dvd player.

I just bought Vizio XVT473SV from Dell, which was delivered last week. Worked fine for a day or so, but I'm noticing some screen distortion/flickering occasionally. Also some audio cut-out. Some posts suggest this might be standard def vs HD channel issues. (cable) I've not had any indication of visual or audio problem yet when using the Internet Apps or when hooking up my laptop to it. But it doesn't always work right when I turn it on with it tuned to the cable box. The problem this morning with flickering was a situation with TV/cable turned on, cable tuned to a standard def channel from the night before. I tuned to an HD channel, the screen still flickered. I turned off cable and tv. Turned back on and all was well. I'm not happy to be seeing these kinds of problems within a day of having the tv though.

I haven't had a single HDMI issue yet and I've had mine for over a month now. I have a Sony bluray player, a PS4, a Roku 3 and an Amazon Fire TV hooked up to the receiver. The receiver is awesome, I love it. I usually go with Onkyo receivers, but wanted to give this one a try and I'm glad that I did.

Have they resolved this issue yet? I am thinking about buying this TV, and would like to know if they resolved this issue.

i ordered my a week ago and it should be delivered tomorrow. i cant wait, i think i'm gonna love this tv! sounds like you like yours other than the HDMI issue. i'll keep that in mind when i check mine out. i dont think that i would really care just as long as the other two work. How do you like yours?

I have not had any problems with this TV since purchase. I did have a previous Samsung where the capacitors crapped out and Samsung was less than useless.

Thanks for the reply. So as far as we know, is there any model coming with the benefits of the 9040, and HDMI 1.4?

I've had mine for almost three years, but I didn't start using it often until recently. I had problems playing some Disney Blu-Ray disks I purchased for my son... The picture and sound would cut out intermittently when watching the movies, and it seemed to get worse each time we watched them. I figured my problem had something to do with anti-piracy nonsense, since I refused to update the firmware... A friend ended up an expensive paperweight when he did the firmware update. I solved my problem (at least so far) by taking my home theater receiver out of the loop and connecting the blu-ray player directly to the TV via HDMI. So far, so good.

I talked to the Sony warranty people for over an hour today. This is some of last years 4k parts, so it does have a track record. The panel is new just coming out in September. The one thing I like about the Sony is that they are not getting the Chinese boards. Way too many quality control issues coming out of the student free labor in these electronic plants. The tech high school kids are working for free and the quality shows. Samsung and Panasonic have had quality issues in both the Plasma and LCD/LED, read all the reviews here and you will see what I mean. I own two Samsung's, and switched to Sony, because of returning 3-Plasmas, 3-blu-rays, and having my current Samsung LED fixed twice. I own a PS3 and it just runs, when my Samsung Blu-rays would not. See my latest review on the size of pixels for repair under warranty.
