Surround Sound Not Working Correctly Since Connecting New Blu-Ray Player

I recently purchased a Sony VIZIO VBR200W Blu-Ray Player to go with my VIZIO VL420M LCD HDTV, and am having some audio issues.  I have a RCA RT2770 Home Theater System, which is connected to the TV through the audio in/out composite (RCA) audio cables (audio in is to the RCA system, audio out is to the TV).  The Blu-Ray Player and the XBox 360 are connected directly to the TV using HDMI cables.  The problem is the sound coming out of the speaker system is a bit distorted when using the Blu-Ray player.  I've also noticed quite a bit of feedback coming from both the TV speakers and the surround speakers when the TV screen is bright (loading menu's of movies, Netflix Instant Queue, etc.).  I never had any issues with the sound from the 360, which has been hooked up this way since day one.  Any suggestions on how to get the sound to be clearer? 
OK, now I'm starting to worry that the feedback I got earlier caused some kind of picture quality issues in the TV itself!  Before I make a fool of myself for asking stupid questions, is this even a possability?  Help!!!

dumb question - but does your rca home theater have an optical input on the back of it? it will look like a trapazoid cover with sometimes the words "audio in"

  • Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in preview.

    Title & Menu Buttons not working correctly on remote control/ set top player but work in encore preview. This only happens for a Blu ray project. When a user presses the menu button it should go to the previous menu they were on but it goes to the main menu. When they press the title button they should go to the main menu but it doesn't do anything. My DVD projects work as expected.I've tried creating a new "test" project with different footage and still get the same undesirable results.
    Overrides grayed out and set to "not set" for timelines and menus.Project settings and build are set to blu ray. Also I've noticed when I preview a Bluray project the preview window shows a red colored disc next to the Title button when viewing the timelines and green when playing the menus but not so for a DVD project it displays red if motion menus and or timelines are not rendered/encoded. I'm not using motion menus and all the media is encoded according to the project specs.
    I've searched this forum but couldn't find the answer. Any help or redirects to a solution would be appreciated. Working with CS5. Thanks.

    I found out on my Samsung Blu ray player the remote has a tools button on it that brings up audio, angle, chapter selection etc.and also title selection which is actually the menus and the timelines unfortunately. It's not as easy or direct as last menu selected but it's a workaround at least. I also plan on using a pop up menu. I'll let you know.

  • How do I connect a Blu-Ray player w only Ethernet?

    Hi- I use an airport extreme base with n-only operation with a few computers and appleTV around our home (great speed!). I just added a blu-ray player with an ethernet port and would like to figure out how to connect it to the wireless network. I'm guessing there's a 802.11n repeater or some sort of wireless hub I can buy that can be configured to extend the network to ethernet, but have no idea. I'm assuming this is what folks with printers have done for years... would appreciate any advice. thanks!
    (would love to configure my AppleTV to share it's network connection, but that's beyond my capability.... :))

    One option would be to use the new 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station's (AXn) ProxySTA feature to create a wireless-to-wire bridge to connect the Blu-Ray player to.
    To activate ProxySTA, you must set up the Express to join a wireless network and then enable the Allow Ethernet Clients setting; both settings are located in the Wireless tab of AirPort Utility. The feature should work with any wireless network: a, b, g, or n; and 5GHz or 2.4GHz. (Note that the Express, which ships with firmware 7.3, must also be updated to firmware 7.3.1 for this feature to appear.)

  • Connecting a blu-ray player wirelessly

    Hello,
    I am trying to connect a blu-ray player wirelessly and it is asking for my WEP/WPA2 authentication. I know the password for my wireless network, what else do I need and where can I find it?
    Thanks!

    Sorry, I forgot details! The blu-ray player is a Magnavox model number MBP5120F/F7 and it seems like a lot of people have issues connecting with this one ****!
    Also, I am not overly proficient in computer lingo...sorry!

  • New Blu-ray player and DVD-R media... strange problem?

    Hello,
    So, I have a sample disc that we made last year with various clips on it. To the best of my knowledge, everything has worked just fine. Now, I have a new Sony Blu-ray player. I put our sampler in, and one of the tracks does NOT play the audio. Plays the video, no audio. Inserting the same disc into our other players and the audio plays with the video just fine. Grab another sampler from a different build/burn. Same EXACT issue, on the same exact video track there is no audio but the disc works in all other players. Now here is the real kicker- take either sampler disc and play it in the Blu-ray player, go to the track that plays the video but no audio, play it for a few seconds, then rewind and play from the beginning, and you get sound. Jump back to the chapter index and choose the clip, no sound. Rewind & play you get sound.
    Anyone want to give my any ideas as to what is going on?
    Mike
    For what it's worth, the project was edited in FCP, Compressed using Compressor. I don't specifically know the exact settings, but I typically use VBR with an average of 6 or a CBR of 5. I always use AC3 audio. DVDSP authored the disc. I usually keep my systems up to date, but the disc was authored last January so I would have been using whatever the latest system updated in January were. And finally there are two builds of the disc. The 2nd build has DVD Rom content added to it. But either build has the same exact issue with the same exact tack.

    Not Really. Try using another batch of discs. Author the project over again..maybe it will help.

  • Can't connect wireless blu ray player

    I've been using verizon DSL for about 5 years now.  I have a Versalink 327W that was provided by Verizon.  I've been pretty happy with the service, experiencing only a few glitches that were easily fixed.  But I haven't been pushing it hard.  I have a couple of desktops both wired to the Versalink by ethernet.  The versalink provides internet access to the two computers, and file and printer sharing as well.
    Now I have a problem.  I recently bought a Sony Blu Ray player  (model BDP-BX57) with built in wireless.  No matter what I do, wireless connection fails.  I've ruled out SSID and WEP key problems.  The Blu Ray sees the Versalink with its SSID, and can't connect even if I set the Versalink to open.  For what it's worth, if I plug the blu ray into the versalink with ethernet, that works, and I can access the internet.
    That solution won't work for me in use.  I need wireless.
    Reading various entries in this forum and other places, I see that some people need to update the firmware in their Versalink.  Do I need to do this?  Is it going to help?  Am I just going to have to upgrade my router/modem or my DSL service later on?
    Also, looking at the steps needed to update the firmware, it looks error prone to me.  What's my fall back if things go wrong due to either my error or Verizon's?  I don't want to be without service for a long time while Verizon gets me a new router/modem.
    Thanks in advance.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    This problem has been solved.
    The solution turned out to be to upgrade the firmware inside the "Residential Gateway"  (aka router/modem)  provided by Verizon.  The gateway is a Westell 327W  of the A90 vintage.  The firmware it contained didn't work for wireless connections.
    After finding a Verizon site that provides firmware for downloading, and satisfying myself that this site was on the up and up, I finally ventured to download and install the new firmware.  if you are interested in downloads from Verizon, start at download.verizon.net and navigate your way to the download you are loking for.  There may be a link from My Verizon to this download area, but I sure couldn't find it. 
    The firmware is now at rev 4.04.03.00.  And the gateway now supports wireless connections.
    Thanks for all your responses, and a special thanks to some contributors to old discussions in dslreports where the solution was outlined.
    The next problem to deal with is going to be slow speed.  I'll start a new topic. 

  • Connecting Insignia Blue Ray Player to Home Wireless Network

    OK, I am having problems connecting my Insignia Blue Ray Player to my home wireless network. Under network settings I was able to connect to the network, but it can't seem to acquire an IP address. All the other devices connected to the network are working. I'm not very proficient at this obviously, but does anyone have any thoughts?

    If there is a configuration option on the BD player, set it to auto.

  • Trying to connect Sony Blu Ray player to MI424WR router wired through in-wall connection, help!

    Maybe someone can help me. My house has some pre-wired cat5e plugs in the walls. I have my MI424WR router upstairs and my Sony blu ray player downstairs. I first connected the router and blu ray player to the wall with cat5e cables, no luck. I then tried using a cat5e crossover cable from the router to the wall, no luck. The Sony blu ray player has everything set to auto, but do I need to configure something? Can someone help me figure out what is not working? Thank you.

    Shouldn't the wiring in the wall act like a hub with the router plugged into one wall jack?
    No.  cat5 wiring doesn't work that way.  Unlike phone wiring where all the wires are connected together, cat5 wiring connects point-to-point between two Ethernet devices.  You need a continuous cat5 path from the blu-ray player to the router.  The patch panel merely provides a termination point for each cable. 
    The easiest thing to do to get this working is to take a cat5 patch cord and use it as a jumper from the jack going to the blu-ray player and the jack going to the Actiontec router.  That will give you a continuous connection between the two devices.
    Longer term, if you want to add devices in other rooms that have a cat5 cable, you will need to add a switch as viafax999 suggested.

    http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCategory=30&Tpk=ethernet%20switch&Order=PRICE
    You will need to connect the jack going to the Actiontec router as well as the jack going to each room where you want an Ethernet connection to the switch.  The number of rooms you want active will determine how many ports you need on the switch.

  • How do I program my remote to work for my satellite and Blu Ray player?

    I recently purchased the 55 in LED Toshiba tv model number 42SL417U and I am having trouble finding the instructions on how to program it to work with my Sony Blu Ray player and Satellite. I went to product support and could not find a topic on how to program the remote. 

    Information on how to program your remote is available on page 79 of your user's guide.
    The TV also has CEC functionality to control other CEC-enabled, HDMI-connected devices. More information about this is on page 19 of the user's guide.

  • How to connect to blu-ray player

    How do I get my iphone to be recognized by my Sony blu-ray player? I have it cnnected by a USB port. The blu-ray player says it does not recognize USB device, or that it is not supported. Any help would be appreciated.

    I've never heard of a Blu-Ray player that offers this functionality in conjunction with an iPhone.
    Your best option would be to buy an AppleTV and connect that to your big screen TV. Then you can wirelessly stream audio, video and photos to your TV, and also mirror the iPhone screen on your TV allowing you to play games etc. on your iPhone but displayed on your TV. The AppleTV also does lots of other things too.
