This may be a long one... if anyone can solve this issue I will be so grateful to the point of ppg-ing some mulah :'(
I am having a nightmare with my set up and since using the Harmony remote it has gotten worse. So I am willing to unplug everything and take the advice of AVF
Equipment:
TV: Sony KD-49XG8396
AV: Yamaha RX-V381
Streamer: Fire TV 4K
Remote: Harmony Elite
Current issues:
TV is connected at the ARC HDMI to the AV. When I try to use the TV and have the speakers set to Audio System it crashes and reverts to TV Speaker.
I turned off the IR blaster that turned on the AV when I turned the TV on so as to use the Harmony remote which would turn everything on. Turned off the ARC control of the sony remote volume controlling the amp too.
Just now I am using the 3 remotes, and still can't get audio to the amp through the speakers when using the TV for netflix, I have to go through the fire box and use the netflix app.
I am thinking maybe I should not use the ARC HDMI and use an optical cable?
I am really struggling and dearly want the Harmony remote to replace using all three (TV, Amp, Fire).... but I am struggling big time.
Happy to send a small money reward via paypal to whoever solves this issue!
Thanks,
iain
