Wow, that sucks. Why would they not have such a basic feature as this? I can only guess they want such features included on their higher priced models. :( I don't think the Input Assignments are the solution in this matter (unless you want to go into the AVR's GUI menu's and change it every time). Also your Sat box may limit it's outputs (may not have *active* outputs where all audio & video are always available on all outputs, dunno). Another option is to use the AVR's Audio Select option. Place both Sat box HDMI and your SB digital coax all onto the same AV1 input. Now you simply use the AVR's Audio Select to quickly scroll through the four selections: Auto, HDMI, Digital coax/optical, Analog If you go this route I'd suggest you leave it on Auto so you would only need to actually select your audio input in the cases where you want both audio & video from different sources simultaneously. IOW: If you just want either Sat box or SB player, no additional audio selection is needed. The draw back to this simpler setup (thanks to the genius Yamaha engineers who left off the basic feature of allowing different audio & video sources simultaneously) is that you now have lost any additional Zone playback with your SB player if the Sat service is in use in your Main Zone. :( Assuming you even use Zones. -- toby10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ toby10's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12553 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=76173 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list Touch@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
