Yamaha RX-V365 Each component works fine on its own. --DVD player works via component cables (and not when hooked up via HDMI to anything). --Comcast PVR works fine, but not if connected to the Receiver or HDTV via HDMI. I can get audio via digital optical to the reciever. All works fine if connected via component cables. Computer works fine if connected via 5.1 cables from sound card to reciever. No sound available over HDMI through reciever or HDTV. > Yes, this sucks. Do you have your component cables switched? No. I can't get digital audio via the component cables. > What HDMI cable are you using? A generic cable. > > To make things worse, the HDMI audio configuration only > > allows selecting > > STEREO.

The audio control in the right hand area of the task bar, or via Sound in the control panel. > Well, you have a PC in your system that I don't have. I have > an Onkyo > 706 receiver.

Both the Comcast PVR and DVD player complain about when hooked up via the HDMI. That is a separate problem, I believe, than the inability to get any sound out of the new HD 4670 video card. Still searching for an answer, but may just go back to the old setup which at least worked even if it didn't give me digital audio from my computer. Jim Maki jwm_maill...@comcast.net
