Onkyo AVR connection

[Jonathan Sucher]

as a new owner, I got everything set up (Bluetooth, WiFi etc) and have loaded cd’s with no problem and navigated the web UI and used the help sources.

My  optical connection is used by a TV so the toslink is not workable for now as an option.

I tried a HDMI cable to a game (unused setting) which does not seem to connect.  I even tried to disable tv on HDMI in the app as I saw 

I have also been unsuccessful using the RCA cables any tips, I suspect it is operator error and will test on my work old school Harman  Kardon receiver I use at work.

(I have found the tutorials helpful on line).

On the WebUI, in the settings box, you must set the checkbox for "Audio on HDMI (TV)" to enable the signal on HDMI.  I can't remember, but that might also turn off the optical output.  If you want to avoid the hassle of having to switch that off and on as needed, you could get a low cost optical splitter so you can feed both the Onkyo AVR and the TV.

HI Jays...,

If you select 'Audio on HDMI (TV)' - web UI settings menu - it does turn off the internal amp, the Line Out and the Optical out.

As Daniel suggests a cheap optical switcher may be the solution.
