    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    Yup, the old RCA cables work, but of course there is no DD so it just defaults to Pro Logic. I took your advice and did a factory default reset on both units. IT IS WORKING! I have no idea what is different, I have all of my original settings for the AVR and DVR written on my manuals, and they...

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    I can't believe my AVR could cause the problem on only certain channels, and the speaker display is the same between all of the HD channels and also between all of the SD channels. In case it is the DVR, I will have a new one next Friday to try. I'll wait to try the factory default reset so I...

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    Main Zone is on and working, except for certain programming, the speaker display shows the 5.1 icons. This seems to be what comes up on all the HD channels all of the time , but some programming does not use the rear speakers (but can't be positive about this). - the problem does not seem to...

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    It should be, the problem is only on the non surround programming on the HD channels - Seems the Dolby track is always there to set the AV receiver to DD, but the info is not there. Programming that is recorded in 5.1 comes through in surround fine. Non surround programming on the HD feeds has...

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    Dolby Digital/PCM and Line Mode, same as when I first set it up years ago, but I did try all combinations in case something in the system changed.

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    Tried a new HDMI cable, no change. I can not receive the stations OTA (too far), but I did request in an earlier post if anyone can try OTA and let me know. Hopefully someone can try it.

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    I have switched inputs to the AVR, but have not tried switching out the cable itself. I will try that when I get home.

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    I have had this over 3 years and did balance the speakers, and had the HD setup for probably 2 years and up until 3 weeks ago everything worked fine. There is NO audio on any speaker when this problem happens (except for a low hum) and it is tied to the broadcast, not just a random drop. It...

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    My 5.1 and 7.1 are the same setting. I do get sound in 7 channel Stereo mode which is not the same as Dolby Digital 5.1 or 7.1. When I do this, the majority of the sound is from the rear speakers and very annoying.

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    I have reported this to Dish Network (and call back every other day). They said it is not a known issue. My NY locals are NYC CBS and NBC. When I get a show that has no sound, it is for the entire show and vice-versa. If a 5.1 commercial comes on during a 2 chan show, it will not have sound and...

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    Don't know about those shows, but mine would also show 5.1 and all speakers active with no sound when there was no sound when it didn't work. I know most news shows had no sound and the prime time stuff was fine (except for some commercials).

    That was my original thought, but dfergie found the problem with his NY feeds on Directv

    CBS/NBC NY feed no sound on HD

    I have not tried driving the TV directly, but my TV has no speakers so that will be a more difficult test. The system is 7.1, but the same Dolby Digital mode runs 5.1 or 7.1. The only mode that had any sound was 7 channel stereo.
