The TV must be turned on for any audio to pass through the speakers. Think of this system as an extension of your TV's speakers.

I don't have a blue ray DVD player and my apple t.v players just fine though the hdmi port did you trying changing the channel on it because my DVD player I do have I have to switch to hdmi 2 on my t.v to play it and when I play my apple t.v switch to port 2 on the device maybe I have to try it out on my tv in the living room since that is where the blue ray is and see what my results are. I hope that little bit of info worked for you I know it's not much but I hope you fix the problem.

If your TV correspond to Bluetooth, you may be connected. However, this is basically an item is used by connecting to a PC or a gameThank you!!

Yes, but your Blue-Ray requires a separate HDMI cable and a separate Input for that cable on your TV. Once this is done, simply use your TV's remote to select this Input and you should be ready to go.

I've had this problem on blue ray and direct tv. when using the hdmi connection. I am going to call customer support to have them note the problem before I download the firmware update.

I have apps built into my TV via the blu-ray player. Also, the TV is connected to an Xbox with Internet connection. Hope this helps.

Assuming your blu ray player has, in addition to its HDMI port, component jacks as well I would think so.

It may work, it did not do what I wanted it to do, I wanted to hook my blue ray player to my tv, the player had hdmi and the tv had component, the tv was 1080i but it did not matter newer products use the hdmi to communicate to the tv to help prevent copyrighters this prevented mine from working. However I'm not sure if It would work on what u are trying to do or not. I would say just try it, it's a cheap cable. Sorry I could not be any more help

Mark, I am considering buying a Sony KDL-40EX700 TV and a BDV-E770W or BDV-570 Blu-ray Disc Player Home Entertainment sytem. I went to the Sony web site and contacted David P. on their chat link and asked the HDMI hook up question.His reply is as follows: "I'd be happy to assist you with that. There is one HDMI connection on those systems that connects to your Television. Once you have connected that, you would then plug any other devices that you have (Cable Box, Game Systems etc) to your TV via HDMI and it will send the sound to the surround sound system." Sounds like it should work but have yet to try it. Good luck. Mark, I am considering buying a Sony KDL-40EX700 TV and a BDV-E770W or BDV-570 Blu-ray Disc Player Home Entertainment sytem.

Returned it after 3 days, but it didn't have a blue ray player. I don't remember the card, so sorry.

Huh? This has no HDMI inputs? This is a Blu ray player - kinda pointless w/o at least one HDMI input(?)...or am I missing something?

Your Blu-Ray player is decoding the audio and passing that signal to your receiver. Since the receiver is not decoding a True HD signal in the case it won't light up. If you want to see True HD light up, set your Blu-Ray to output bitstream. It really makes no difference, you still end up with the same output in the end.

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......

If you are connecting your TV to your blue ray player using HDMI cable, then that is the best way to go. Otherwise you'll have to use the traditional component stereo cables.

This will only play content from CD/DVD disks. If the disk says "blue-ray" (which is popular for new HD movies) this won't play it! You will need to look for a player that can play blue-ray disks.
