Thanks, but that part of the proble i solve it a few eeks ago.



I did again the sonometer thing and now is much much better, i trune up a little bit the surrounds because i like it better like that, but now i hear everthing excellent :-)

It depends on the TV manufacturer, but a lot of them dropped DTS from their supported formats, you should still be able to get Dolby Digital from a new LG, I think you might be able to get Dolby Digital+.

And what do you think about the other thing?
Why now the ARC is working like needed to be and before no?

From what I can tell your current TV supports DTS, but the new one wouldn't, it wouldn't really affect much, as most Apps don't output DTS and your Blu-ray player is connected to the Onkyo directly.

It might just have been a handshake issue, but there isn't any need to use optical and ARC, ARC should suffice and work correctly.

When i use the PC, like for example, i watch GoT (BR RIps, but i own the original, so is a "Back up" just in case ), and i have the ONKYO on DIRECT, i see DTS on the Onkyo display, and sound much louder that the rest of my stuff on the PC, what with happend with the new TV you think?

I know, i just really weird, can be really because i trun on the Onkyo before and then the TV like you said before?
And just in case, every time that i want to change the HDMI Cables for any reaso, i need to trun of everithing?

It's connected directly to the Onkyo? if it is, then there won't be any changes.

Generally, yes, you should turn everything off when changing cables.

Yes, everything is connected to the Onkyo (The PC, The BR Player, the VCR, the Laserdisc Player, and an STAELITE box that i have an antene of the roof of the building), and from the Onkyo goes to the HDMI 2 (ARC) in the TV.

Hi men, how are you?
I hope that you can help me to understand.


So, in the livingroom, i have this PC:
Mini-ITX Case: Cooler Master Elite 130
Power Supply: Seasonic SS-600BT ECO 600W
Processor: 9th Generation Intel® Core™ i3 9100F (1151)
Motherboard: Gigabyte B360N WIFI GB360NW
Hard Disk:
Samsung 840 Series 250GB SSD
WD 250GB 7200RPM 16MB
RAM: Crucial 16GB (1x16GB) DDR4-2666 UDIMM
Graphic Card: Gigabyte GT 1030 Low Profile 2G
DVD/BR Drive: Pioneer BDR 209D


It started to get stuck, not responding, untill i restarted it, i put a new Hard disk, i needed to change it anyway because it was old, but when i connected to the ONKYO, keep doing the stuck and responding thing.
The guy that i bougth the PC told me "try to connected directly to the TV, and let me know what happend", so i did, and for now, is ok.


The bad thing that i wanted that the PC sound to get out from the reciver.
But for my sorprise..(the reciver is connected to the HDMI ARC), the Pc is connected to the HDMI 1 (not ARC) on the TV, but when i pute the Reciver in TV mode, all the sound goes out from the reciver!


in the windwos, i see in the volume part that the sound "goes out from the LG TV"...


So, is a good thing for me, but i just can't understan why this is happend


Maeby you know?


Thanks :-)

Off the top of my head, pressing TV on the remote would switch to the ARC channel, you need the AVR to be on HDMI 1 (BD/DVD) and the TV on the HDMI input ARC is connected to.

Ok, but the PC is not connected to the ARC channel anymore, hehe, that's why i don't understand why the sound is going out from the ONKYO.

PC shouldn't be connected to the ARC, you want the TV connected to the ARC (ARC to ARC), so sound from the TV gets send to the Denon.

Ok, so i will tel you again, I have:


My PC. VHS, Laserdisc and BR Player.
All of that, was connected to the ONKYO (the onkyo have 4 HDMI In, BR/DVD, CAB/SAT, STREMER, GAMES) and to more RCA (for BR/DVD, CAB/SAT). And one HDMI Out with ARC (from there i toke the HDMI cable to the TV)



My PC was connected to the "GAMES" HDMI, the rest is not important.
A few month ago, the PC started to make problem, just stop working, was on, i see the dekstop, but didn't respond untill i do a reset.


At first, i was thinking that is because of the hard disk (it was old), i put today a new one, but the same problem, so my friend told me to connect the PC direct to the TV (i did, is now connected to the HDMI 1 on the TV, non ARC), and now work find for now, it did not "freeze" yet like untill now.


I was annoying because i wanted that all the PC sounds to go out from the ONKYO and not just for the TV.


The Onkyo have 8 bottons: BR-CAB/SAT-STREMER-GAMES-TV-TUNER-USB and don't remember what else, maeby only 6 .
Now, a few month ago (i don't know if you remember) it was the problem that is i use the NETFLIX or YOUTUBE that came with the TV, the apps, the sound didn't work well, anyway, now works.


Ok, so, now, i put the TV on HDMI 1, i see the PC, and the ONKYO (i really don't know why) went to the TV on the display, and when my father started to see NETFLIX from the PC, suddenly I heard the sound coming out of all the speakers, and started to check what happend if i change the mode from DIRECT-SURR-STEREO-DSP, and works like before when the PC was connected to the ONKYO .


I just trying to understand why is working like that if the PC is not connected to the ONKYO, only to the TV.
The sound from the PC goes from the Graphic Card with an HDMI cable, i don't have any speakers connected to the PC.


I really a good news for me, but like i said, i trying to understand why work like that


sorry for the long explination dude :-)

Sorry I misunderstood, if your PC is connected to the LG HDMI 1 and you have the Onkyo connected through ARC to the LG and the AVR is set to TV then it should send audio out through ARC.

Hi men, i need a little help (again)

Untill today didn't happend a lot, but today happends 2 times and after the secound one, i couldn't fix it.

The sound just stop going out from the speakers, but when i goinf to the onkyo setting, they work.

Try to trun of and on again, and didn't work, take it out from the electricity and nothing.

In the middle of a movie, the sound just stop.

They've stopped outputting completely? Are the speaker indicators on on the Onkyo's display? things like DIGITAL and HDMI in the bottom right-hand corner.

Everything was ok, nothing change on the Onkyo display.
My dad was watching Netflix and the sound just stop haha. (but when i went to the onkyo setting that i can change the Chnnel Level setting on the onkyo, you know, where i can change the DB, i had sound haha)

Happend before, and i just trun it off and on again (the onkyo and the TV) and work. Yesterday that didn't work. Today also that didn't work.

This monday i put a new streamer from a company here, i saw today that the internet cable was a little out, i put back in and the sound started working again, untill now still works.

Can that be the problem?? (i don't know what to think anymore haha)
