Hi all,
I am having an odd issue with my receiver - hopefully someone could guide me in the right direction.
My receiver is hooked up pretty simply, just the main, hooked up to an LG UHD flat-screen (LG-65UH7650) , etc.
The issue is that both my PC and Amazon Fire HD TV will not show up on the TV screen at all - it looks like it is going to switch on, then goes to the screen saver - a couple of times it said "Invalid Format".
Both the Fire and PC worked fine previously. My Dish, audio PC and blue-ray player work fine now.
I checked the Amazon Fire TV (it is easier to unhook and move around) on a smaller TV. I plugged it in to the HDMI switch on the TV and it worked right away. I hooked up my gaming PC with a computer monitor and it worked also, so, it does not appear the Fire TV or the gaming PC are the issue - it is either the receiver or the TV.
I have the Onkyo HDMI out to the LG Flatscreen HDMI 2 (ARC in), then everything else to the receiver. HDMI 1 is the Blue Ray player, HDMI 2 is the Cable (Dish), HDMI 3 is the Fire, HDMI 4 is my gaming PC, HDMI 5 is my audio PC. HDMI 1, HDMI 2 and HDMI 5 are presently hooked up and working. Blue-ray is fine, Dish is fine and the Audio PC is fine.
HDMI 3 and 4 seem to be the problem,BUT, I hooked up the Fire to HDMI 1 and it did NOT work, although the Blue-Ray player does. I am sure it is not a cable issue because I have tried several, including the cable that is attached to the blue-ray. Simply, I turn on the blu-ray and I get output on the TV, I use the same cable to the Fire TV and it does not output an image.
So---it appears as if I have some odd HDMI issues. I have gone through all of the setup screens and nothing is unusual.
Bottom line: Fire TV and gaming PC work when plugged directly into other flat-screen TV, but will not work on HDMI plugged into receiver, when the Fire did work previously.
