Connecting my new sony str hd800 to my Samsung LCD.

I want to make sure that HDMI out from the receiver to HDMI in on the TV is the way to hook up my receiver (Sony str dh800) to my Samsung LCD TV (think it is a 52" lcd 650)  I don't remember now but when I tried it (looked at it but didn't connect it) last night I didn't think it looked correct.  If I didn't need to help with the kids I probably would have tried it.  Just want to make sure!  Thanks! 

right now I have it connected to the rca audio input on the tv

  • I have connected my new Macbook Air to my existing Samsung large external monitor with a VGA adaptor but I can't get the full mac desktop to display. No icons but then websites are coming up. Help!

    I have connected my new Macbook Air to my existing Samsung large external monitor with a VGA adaptor but I can't get the full mac desktop to display. No icons but then websites are coming up. Help!  Further info:  I am a complete newbie to Mac.  Had three macs prior to 2000 then four PCs.  Just come back and struggling a bit with the unfamiliarity. On my old PC laptop I could simply switch from the laptop screen to the large external monitor (and back)  with the F4 function key.  While I can get the background image from my MBA to display, that's it.  Until I noticed on the far left of the external monitor, the very edge of one of the web pages I was on.  So Idragged it over to display in the centre.  But that's all that's there.  And now I have gone out of those web pages but they are still displaying on the monitor.  There is some wierd disconnect.  I'm sure it is just a setting thing.  Will keep searching for answer but any advice welcome!

    Your dsplay is getting extended onto the external monitor. Chcnage the setting to duplicate it or only display on the external monitor and you should be fine,
    Let me know if this worked for you.

  • Connecting The New Sony HRX-MC2000 to FCP

    Hi
    Anyone used the new Sony HRX-MC2000 to a Mac for use with FCP yet or are you finding it is not reconised in any way shape or form?
    Anyone have ideas or solutions.
    Thanks
    PJ

    Hi Tom
    What A Plonker I am, had not noticed the other end of USB lead not plugged in (Der!!!) It works fine and transfers either as a raw file move to HDD or within FCP using the Log & transfer, thanks for your reply, it made me go back and check it all again.
    As you also said it does mount on the desktop as an external drive.
    Good camera giving great images so far.

  • Sony STR-DN1040 audio cuts out briefly, frequently

    Audio on my new Sony STR-DN1040 cuts out whan SAT/CATV is the source. This happens frequently (every 30 seconds to a minute, unpredictably), though it is only for a fraction of a second each time.
    When the audio cuts out, the following items on the front display panel of the receiver all flash off momentarily:
    A.P.M.Dolby Digital SymbolD.L.L.
    When I reconnect the cable box directly to the TV instead of the receiver (same HDMI cable), the audio issue goes away. I have tried resetting/clearing the receiver. Any thoughts/suggestions?

    Thanks again for your suggestions! They are much appreciated.
    I have noticed that the problem is apparent on some TV channels more than others. Some channels seem to cause the audio drop and other channels don't.
    I have now tried attaching my Blu-Ray player to the SAT/CATV port using the same HDMI cable. The problem was not apparent (but I haven't noticed the issue with the Blu-Ray source previously, so perhaps that helps rule out the SAT/CATV port).
    I also tried attaching the cable box/PVR to the BD port and the problem was still present (as mentioned earlier, mostly present on certain channels).
    The software is up to date as of last week (ver. s9327.1074.0).
    I also tried powering off and disconnecting everything, then reconnecting and powering everything on in the described order. The issue is still present, regardless of the HDMI input port that I use. As mentioned before, this happens only when I route the SAT/CATV signal through the receiver. When I bypass the receiver, by connecting the cable box/PVR directly to the TV, the audio does not cut out on the usual affected channels.

  • Insignia 32 LED TV and Sony STR-DH720 HDMI ARC question

    I have my new Insignia 32 LED TV connected via HDMI to my new Sony STR-DH720 Home Theater AMP.  When I turn on the TV it properly turns on the AM and initially sets AMP to TV input but then a few seconds later it swtiches to VIDEO 2 and then I get no sound.  If I manually set the AMP back to the TV input I get good video and sound.  I want it to stop switching to VIDEO 2 (where nothing is connected) and just stay on TV.  Any ideas on why it is switching and how I can make it just stay on TV.  The HDMI cable is connected to the correct port on the TV and the AMP.

    yeah of the input from the imac to the tv will just be one of the input hdmi sources you have on your list in the sony menu
    I have an Apple TV, a google chrome card, a sat box and at times wifes macbook pro I just switch between them in the bravia menu

  • Will the iphone 5 digital av adaptor (lightning to hdmi) work with the projector input on my new Sony PJ780VE Videocamera when I connect my iPhone 5 to it?

    Hello....I am new here...first posting.....I have recently bought an iphone 5 and also a new Sony PJ780VE camcorder but with a built in projector that allows external input. I am wondering if anyone knows whether the iphone 5 lightning to Digital AV (HDMI) adaptor will work with this Sony projector input okay if I go ahead and purchase the adaptor from Apple. The reason I ask is that I read on the net that Sony are announcing an adaptor for iphone 5 to allow this connection....at least that's my understanding of this....so do I need a proprietary Sony adaptor to facilitate this connection???

    i have the same problem but had nothing to do with an update, it worked christmas day charged overnight and didn't work the next day

  • I connected my brand new iPod Classic 160 GB to my brand new Sony home entertainment system through the headphone jack (to the audio line in). The volume is ridiculously low. Can somebody help me out here?

    I connected my brand new iPod Classic 160 GB to my brand new Sony home entertainment system through the headphone jack (to the audio line in). The volume is ridiculously low. Can somebody help me out here?

    Make sure the volume on the iPod is turned up fully, since this will affect what you hear through the stereo.
    Make sure Volume Limit is set to full. (From Main Menu, Settings/Volume Limit)
    If you purchased your iPod inside the EU (European Union), then the maximum volume from the headphone jack is lower than elsewhere in the world. If this is the case, buy yourself a 30-pin Dock Connector to 3.5mm jack lead, such as the one linked here...
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Decrescent-Connector-Stereo-Auxiliary-iPhone/dp/B007NIE5 EE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1386012456&sr=8-1&keywords=30+pin+to+3.5mm
    That connector will take a higher volume out (than the European Union's output) and that will be louder (and hopefully loud enough) through your stereo.

  • Connecting a Sony DVD player to Sony STR-DH750 AV Receiver with RCA cables

    I have connected a Sony DVD player with RCA cables to  Sony STR-DH750 AV Receiver at the VIDEO inputs. I get audio, but no video. How do I connect the DVD player to the AV receiver to get both audio and video?

    Hi JB4,
    Are you using HDMI cable in addition to your RCA connection? This HDMI cable is from the receiver going to the TV using the HDMI OUT port. Another option, you are using the RCA yellow + red&white right? you may connect the yellow cable directly to your TV if it has yellow port for video.
    Thanks.

  • Imovie HD6.0.3 won't see my new Sony HDR-CX11E USB connected camcorder

    Despite spending 4 hours now and wanting to shoot myself in the face. My brand new Sony HDR-CX11E is not being recognised by Imovie HD 6.0.3.
    I have followed the instructions to the letter about a hundred times now. I'm using a Intel Core Duo imac, when I plug in the USB cable the memory stick is showing on the desktop, but when I open Imovie.... nothing, No Camera Attached. I have tried opening imovie with every available option tagged, DV, DV Wide, HDV 1080, HDV 720, Mpeg4 but every time it just fails to see the camcorder.
    I read in one of my thousand searches on the subject that you first need to delete any Mpeg2 content from the camera, but I only bought it today and can't find any to delete, I even reformatted the stick to no avail.
    PLEASE help !!!!!

    iMovie HD6 requires a miniDV camcorder to capture video via Firewire. It will not work with any other format of camcorder, like yours, that only has USB.
    If you still want to stay with HD6, and who wouldn't, as it is still the best non pro editing platform there is, you should return that cam for a Sony miniDV model.
    Otherwise, you will need to get iLife 09.

  • No picture using component connections with Sony STR-DG710 Receiver

    I have been unable to get a picture (sound appears to be ok) using component cables to connect to a Sony 710 receiver - the (2) HDMI inputs on the receiver are taken by equipment that can not use component cables. Apple Store checked Apple TV unit and said component outlets were ok. I did barrow one of the HDMI cables to set the system up (1080i resolution was selected). Does anyone have an idea what the problem is?

    There may be an easy answer here. It's your receiver - not the apple TV
    1080p HDMI Inputs: The Sony receiver features two 1080p HDMI inputs and one 1080p HDMI output. The receiver transmits both audio and video through the HDMI monitor output to your TV or you can choose for the HDMI monitor out terminal to only output video to your television. Video signal that is input through HDMI input can only be output through the HDMI monitor output terminal.
    Note: The receiver does not offer video upconversion.
    So it looks like if you go HDMI in - you have to go HDMI out (to your TV)
    If you go component in - you need to go component out (to your TV)

  • Connecting Macbook to Sony Bravia 32" - Won't fill screen and not clear

    I just picked up a Mini-DVI > DVI and DVI > HDMI cord today from my local Apple Store and hooked up my Macbook to my new Sony Bravia 32" HDTV. Unfortunately, I having some problems setting it up. My issues are:
    - I'm not sure how to make my TV the MAIN and ONLY display. I'd like to play games like WoW and watch movies from iTunes on it with the best possible quality and resolution.
    - When connected, the image doesn't fill the whole TV perfectly. It either gets cut off or has black borders. Using the TV's zoom fuction just distorts the image further and possibly cuts off the edges.
    - The quality is less than what I was hoping for. Text is hard to read and pixilated and images just don't look that great. I suspect this might be because it's not filling the whole screen but I am unsure.
    I'd really appreciate detailed instructions on how to deal with the software side of this since my connection is fine.

    Here is a link that should answer your second question about making the TV the sole display:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86286
    As for the screen quality issue, does your TV's manual mention anything about making a computer connection? Does it say to use the VGA port or is HDMI supported for computer use? Also, do you know the TV's native resolution? If it is a 1366 x 768 native panel in the TV, then don't run it at 1920 x 1080 interlaced. That's too high. It will look best if run at it's natvie resolution.
    As for the picture being either too big or too small, that is called overscan. Many newer Sony's have a setting called "Full" under the Wide Mode setting that gets rid of overscan.
