Hi there, I've been looking through the forums for a solution but unfortunately have had no luck so hopefully someone will have some advice for me.
I understand the receiver is fairly old, but it's new to me, coming from an ancient Yamaha RX, so before this I had my PC running HDMI to TV and optical into the amp. I seen the Sony for sale and snapped it up without really thinking about it assuming it was going to be a case of plug and play, hdmi from PC, through the Sony (with 5.1 audio) and onto the TV but unfortunately I have no signal. I can use it the same way I did before but I'm gaining no benefits as all my audio is still channelled through the TV giving me stereo sound.
I've tried changing loads of resoloutions on pc then switching cables back around. Probably spent a good hour doing that, checked nvidias control panel but to be honest I don't know what to do. Works fine from PC to TV, but as soon as I plug it into the receiver j get nothing, I've tried playing a video too to see if the sound was going through but it's not either.
Set all different resoloutions on the receiver itself with no joy. Basically stumped. No idea what to try next
Graphics card I have is Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti if that helps.
I've tried loads of different HDMI cables so I can't see that being the issue, they all work pc-tv but none pc-reciever.
Thanks to anyone who can help. It's got my head splitting already. Will try again after work this evening
