HDMI and CC: Has anyone else seen this ?
1840389
based on what i am finding out via searches, HDMI cables do not carry the CC captioning in the video feed. note: subtitles on dvd's do not equal closed captionings, 2 different things this is why you can view subtitles on dvds through hdmi hookup. only work around i have found is to hook up with the old video feed, i.e. yellow rca jack to the tv, then use this video feed as input source on tv when you want cc's.

Yep. It's like a halo around the characters, especially on grey or blue background. No difference between vga / dvi / display port (have not tried hdmi)

L Chang,Here is a good link that should clear up the HDMI type. There are also pictures on the left hand side that should help with this. Follow this link:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMIThanks.

Just saw a youtube video of a guy baking the HDMI board. The commentators claim it works. Not for the faint of heart, though. I have the same issue. Will try with Onkyo first to see if they agree to repair it. If not, I'll bake the board. What's the worse that could happen?

I have had similar issues and thought it might have ben the monitor itself... the problem is that the HDMI cable was moving ever so slightly as we manipulated our rig and the weight of the HDMI cable itself helped it to wiggle out just a little bit and lose connection. Nothing a little gaffer tape couldn't fix. After figuring out what was going on we have yet to see it lose signal again.Hope This helps!

I have not had any HDMI issues with this receiver that was purchased in early December. I have read about some people who have had some issues when using the CEC/HDMI control feature.

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.

We had problems with some HDMI format not sure if it was HDMI-cec. Ended up returning.

Your problem may be caused by using component cables and not HDMI cables. You do not have to use $150 HDMI cables but use shielded cables. I got mine on eBay for $9 ea for ten foot cables. The picture is flawless.

Yes. There is an option to not show any on-screen graphics (Rec, audio levels etc) via HDMI out. Though, if you do go into the menu, it does show up on screen.

Wish I could be of help, but no luck here. Since HDMI has been available, I've made several attempts to multi-task with this technology, unsuccessfully. If I remember correctly, one of the reasons for the initial development was to put in place safeguards on content to prevent "pirating" hi-def, with the pressures of the movie studios and replaced component connections. Wish mine were a little heavier, then it'd make a good paper weight. But being no expert, it might seem that for less that 5 bucks, you might have better luck.

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

Try using an HDMI Splitter. Signal from Source through HDMI Splitter, (1) out to HTPC. Voilà!

There is no way that I know. When I installed mine, my cables were not fully seated and I saw a similar color issue. It is possible that one of your component or HDMI cables is not completely connected to the box or the TV/Devices. Check that your cables are firm and in the correct ports. If they are, you may try testing with another cable. Once my cables were set, my picture was perfect and I have had no problems with the box.

Hello, I made the same mistake, check that you have ALL the cables connected. There are three total - HDMI - Power - I forget the name if the last. But there are three cables to be connected.

Mine is sitting in the junk room. Most of the time the audio came through just fine for me. My issues was that sometimes the audio was so far out of sync it wasn't even watchable. It's a great concept, but a total POS in reality. Like Clayton said, try updating the drivers and see if that helps. I gave up on mine though. A 15' HDMI cable is cheaper and way more reliable.
