Ok, I was helping a friend setup his new HT with Polks, a Velo sub, and a Pioneer Receiver.
The receiver has PL2, 7.1 outputs, and MCACC and was new
First problem: Only digital connection I could find that would link to the DVD is Coax even though there are 2 optical. Anyway to reassign connections?
Problem 2: Receiver won't default to the source material. DVD's start in stereo and if you force them into multi-channel, a CD is then multichannel. WTF? My 5 yr old box does better than this. Anyway for this to autodetect?
Problem 3: Won't play the TV through the Receiver. hooked the TV up using the analog, fixed volume RCA's on the TV into the receivers TV/SAT RCA connections. Click the receiver to TV/SAT and no sound. No, I didn't try other connections on the box. Do you think this might be a TV or rec problem?
I have never had this much trouble with this crap before. Any help would be appreciated.
