HDMI Do the hdmi ins flow through without the unit being on. how do you turn on stand by for this to work?

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.

No. I always leave mine on. It has enough HDMI inputs to plug in everything and I always use the receiver sound and disabled the TV sound. You can use the opticle out from your TV to input sound for your cable TV/Wii. I assigned opticle to AV1 on the remote.

Unfortunatly the unit has to be powered on and has no pass thru. Although there is a solution to your problem. You can split the HDMI signal with a J-Tech Quality HDMI splitter, which Amazon sells. One can go directly to the TV from source 1 and the other can go to the HDMI amp from source one.

Hi Gerard.I own one of those, and I'm pretty sure that the HDMI inputs don't flow to the HDMI output when the unit is off. Hope it helps.Andy

There is an after-market power cable available that connects to a USB port. I have mine plugged into the port on my TV and the whole system is invisible from the front.

This is not normal operation. I would try different HDMI cables/ports (not plugged in on the other end). A google or two will typically let you know if this is a common issue as well. Good luck!

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.

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.

Yea it has a setting where it'll go into stand-by mode if it doesn't detect signal for a certain amount of time. It's about 20 minutes before it goes into stand-by.

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.

Have similar issue, seems the hdmi out port is to blame, changed all the cables (several times) to no avail. This started after only 6 days, bought because of a relative small number of problems, only to encounter one myself. I have yet to find a fix and not willing at this time to have it repaired will prob send back for a replacement

There is an "Auto Power Off" option built in. You must be in "Optical" mode to turn it off. Even if off, if nothing is "flowing" through the device for a certain amount of minutes, it shuts off automatically. One other item . . . . if you are using HDMI IN and are trying to play something that uses DTS Surround Sound, it will shut off automatically - as if nothing is "flowing" through the device. This built in auto power off option should be deleted.

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

"Standby pass-through of Audio & Video""Conveniently access all your HDMI connected devices without having to power on the receiver". Hope that answers your question my friend.

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 have had one for quite a while and I have never had it enter standby. There is a standby mode you can manually actuate from the remote, and you can completely turn it off by using the power button at the unit

Every time I've hooked up one of these units I've used the optical out of TV haven't had any trouble with powering on, if using separate TV and sound bar remotes try turning off Hdmi control on TV

I haven't tried taking live output through hdmi, but all of the videos I have recorded are clean with no screen menus or time stamp. That seems to be the default, so as far as I know the answer is yes.

Mine doesn't turn it on or off but it does put it on stand by when you close it.
