Intermittent fault when turning on the TV each day as Marantz NR1711 does not always detect Virgin Media V6 cable as 'default source' when turning on TV viz:-
Each morning the TV, Virgin Media V6 and amp are all on standby. All 3 remote controls are handy.
Actions:
Turn on TV, the amp switches on automatically and on about 50% of occasions, the V6's previous channel turns on by default.
However on the other 50% of occasions, the TV displays a message box stating:
'No Signal' followed by text "Check the HDMI cable connection & settings of the HDMI source......" A 'Sources' button is displayed at the bottom right corner of the message box.
I then have to press the amp's remote control 'Tiny little' CBL/SAT button to activate the V6 cable TV box.
This is not a problem for me but my wife of 73 having several health issues, unfortunately gets very confused with this 'fault' scenario if she is first up in the morning. Turning on the TV with its RC, not a problem, but having then to use the amp's RC is confusing for her even though I have demonstrated/written down instructions so she ends up pressing every button on all 3 remotes ending up with blank or frozen screen poor love .
When turning the TV on/off during the day, the same situation reoccurres intermittently.
I have ensured all HDMI cables are firmly in place.
Can anyone solve the problem other than scrapping my home cinema set up or suggesting I always getting up first.
