Hi. I've got a TX-P5OS20B which has, among others, an ARC HDMI port and an optical audio output. I simply cannot get the sound form the TV to come through my new soundbar (Yamaha C20A) which has 1x HDMI port, 1x digital audio, 1x digital audio labelled 'TV'. I followed the instructions from Yamaha carefully - connect TV audio out to the 'TV' on the SBar. Connecting the ARC HDMI on the TV to the HDMI on the SBar will also give the TV control over the SBar.
I've tried every possible combination using the TV port and the audio port on the SBar. Both with and without the HDMI. And just the HDMI on its own. I can never get the sound through. I selected 'Home theatre' for speaker settings on the Viera link controls and I can control the Sbar volume from the TV remote but there is no sound coming through. When I select the 'TV' input on the Sbar it is just silent (also no sound form TV). When I select any other option the TV sound works again.
I plugged the Sbar audio port directly into a TV box and it worked perfectly. It also works okay through Bluetooth from my phone so I'm sure it's not the SBar at fault. I've tried different HDMI cables and audio cables.
Pics of ports attached. Please can anyone give me some guidance here?
