The receiver is only allowing 2 channel audio? it won't even let me select 5 channel audio? I tried unhooking the audio red and white rca's from the box that go to the TV and nothing. same thing...only 2 channel audio. Any ideas?

Does your cable box have an audio output option? If so, go into the cable box set-up menu & see if you can change that. Set it to Dolby Digital instead of PCM.
