I've just bought a Pio868 off the forums here from someone who had it working perfectly with a Sony HS20. According to the player/projector matrix on the French web board I've posted links to in the past this combination should work with firmware version 103, at present I can find no way of discovering the firmware I have.
However, maybe the symptoms of my problem could ring bells with someone ...
The 868 is sending video to the Z2 via the HDMI->DVI cable, evidenced by ( a ) I have a picture and ( b ) the Z2 says it's getting D-525p input.
However, the 868 is not allowing me to get to the HDMI settings, in the "Initial Settings" menu there's the "Options" sub-menu and in there is an "HDMI" sub-menu which is always greyed out. Also greyed out are the HDMI settings in the "Video" menu tree.
Basically, the part of the 868 knows it's connected to an HDMI-compliant device but the other part doesn't ... it makes no sense to me and as usual with user manuals the 'troubleshooting' section is utterless useless.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'll try calling Pioneer on Monday but it'd be nice if I could sort this out sooner.
