Default Sony 350 and have to change output video

Bought a new receiver, Onkyo 606 for the blu-ray and couldn't get a picture via HDMI. Worked fine directly plugged into the tv.
Finally noticed when plugged to the tv the resolution was 1080i. Went into settings on the player and changed from "Auto" to "1080i".
Got the picture no problem.

Why would I have to do this? Isn't that the idea of "Auto Video Formatting"?

Probably the receiver was sending 1080p and you're set don't accept that. Sometime it just does that. It's probably because you're set doesn't send any EDID (Information about compatible resolution) to the receiver and it defaulted to 1080p

Well I was suprised that no one else has had this problem. I surfed the web for a while looking for an answer. Hopefully this fix will help the next contestant to Blu-ray hookups.
Technology now has to slow down. I can't afford to replace a perfectly good tv. For how long that will be is a mystery.
