Its been 24 years since I last purchased new video and audio equipment. I figured its about time to make the plunge.
I purchased a Magnavox HD Smart TV. The TV has Pandora, You Tube, Vudu, and Netflix preloaded on it. All those apps worked with no problem. I wasn't happy with the sound from the TV so I purchased a Yamaha 5.1 surround sound receiver. Model number RX-V477.
I also purchased 2 Cerwin Vega speakers, One Pioneer center speaker. I decided to use 2 Radio Shack speakers that I already had. Those speakers were used on my Yamaha RX-730 receiver that was over 24 years old. The only thing that was wrong with that receiver is that the display light burnt out a few months ago. Now back to the new setup.
I used HDMI one on the receiver to my cable box. I then connected my new LG Blu-Ray player using HDMI and went to HDMI 2 on the receiver. Then HDMI on TV to HDMI OUT on the receiver. I then connected my speakers and turned off the internal speakers on TV.
Everything worked and sounded GREAT !!! BUT, when I go to one of the preloaded apps on the TV it gives me video but no audio. All the TV channels work giving me video and audio, just the preloaded apps no audio.
What did I do wrong ? Is there something I forgot to do ? Sorry for the length of this post but I wanted to give you all the facts.
Thanks
