Yamaha RX-V667 - no tv picture

Hi,
I have just received my YouView box and connecting it via the above Yamaha home theatre system (it is directly replacing my black BT Vision box so no changes to cables). This is a modern HT system capable of 3D, supporting HDMI 1.4a, ARC etc.
On turning on the Humax box I was able to go through the complete setup, accepting T's&C's, and channel tuning, but as soon as the box switches to display the TV picture all I get is a blue screen (with sound tho).
I can get the Yamaha to display the signal information it is receiving and this initially shows 720p@50Hz during the Humax logo display, then switches to 1080p@50Hz as the display changes to the YouView logo. Finally as the display changes to show the TV channel Yamaha just shows ??? as it no longer recognises the signal.
I have managed to connect the YouView box directly to the TV and I do get a picture so technically the box isn't directly faulty, but this isnt how I want to connect the box, nor should it be necessary to have to connect it this way.
I have phoned BT support, who said they knew of an issue regard surround systems that Youview was working on so suggested I phoned them. On speaking to YouView they confirmed my box has the latest software (A7.76) and that I need to speak to BT!
Sorry to be so long winded but its best to give the full story. Hope someone can shed some light on this for me
Thanks,
Colin Townshend

My box runs HDMI to the TV, and (when the software updates to 8.4.20 soon) optical will take DD 5.1 to the amp. This is what YV recommend. My basic Yamaha RX-V371 doesn't do pass through on standby and we'll only have it on when the material warrants it.
This thread over at the YV community forum might help:

Problems with Yahama RX-V667 receiver/HDMI

System is 7232 (1.9/10.95), connected via hdmi to Yamaha RX-V667, which connects to an old Sony WEGA HD tv via hdmi. Some problems:
1) when dvr / tv are turned on together via remote, the dvr shows a Select TV Type SD or HD, every time; this doesn't occur if the tv is turned on, then the dvr after some seconds;
2) when the receiver is turned on and the dvr is the current input (hdmi), the video is sometimes distorted (wavy / staircase edges); if the input is switched to another input and back to the dvr, then the video is ok;
3) on some tv movies, the receiver switches between Dolby Digital and PLIIX (the movie is not shown as 5.1, so it should just remain at stereo or PLIIX [if in dsp cinema mode]).
I previously used a monoprice hdmi switcher and did not notice any problems (old receiver was not hdmi, just optical). I had hoped the new receiver could replace the previous setup (separate hdmi switcher, need for separate optical cables) and support modern codecs (DD Plus mainly for Netflix).
I am trying to determine if the problem is weak hdmi support or defects in the RX-V667 or with the Motorola dvr. I am still in the return window for the receiver, so need to decide if I should return it. I haven't seen similar problems on searching,and most reviews of the receiver are positive (especially for the price; much more $$$ would obviously be better).
Anyone out there with the same receiver and notice similar problems? Do better (eg $$$+++) receivers work better? Which brands, etc.???
Thanks in advance for any advice.

I do not know specifically about your Yamaha receiver, but anytime you daisy chain HDMI there is an opportunity for problems. HDMI has a history of squirrelly behavior, and there are many examples of incompatibilities all over the web. Some receivers have problems with pass-through or otherwise interfere with the HDMI signals. You could try hooking the HDMI directly to the TV, bypassing the Yamaha, and go some audio only connection to the Yamaha. One other thing - go to avsforum.com and look for the owner's thread for your Yamaha receiver and see what other owners of that equipment might be experiencing, and possible solutions. Good luck.

Logic 8 with Yamaha KX8 keyboard

I'm running Logic 8 with a G5 Imac and I can't get the Logic template that ships with the Yamaha KX8 to work correctly. When I hit the transport buttons, I get notes instead of rewind, play, etc.
I'm running Logic 8.0.2, and have all the latest KX8 drivers.
Any ideas on what's wrong with this picture and how I can map these controls simply?

Same thing with me and Logic 9. Funny that Level and pan + esc and choosing tracks seem to work but other buttons just give you notes.

The computer I intend to use is the latest 2.4ghz Quad Core i7 Macbookpro 17"
I am thinking of purchasing a Presonus Studiolive 16.4.2 (http://www.presonus.com/products/StudioLive-16.4.2) to be my audio-interface/mixer (Sticking with firewire since i'm using a mac) and as for monitors, I am thinking about getting a pair of Yamaha HS80M (http://usa.yamaha.com/products/music-production/speakers/hs_series/hs80m/) and a HS10W (http://usa.yamaha.com/products/music-production/speakers/hs_series/hs10w/?mode=m odel#tab=product_lineup) for a subwoofer.
Anyone with experience in using the abovementioned products? Any recommendations or advice?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time.

Okay so I did try to run everything through the Yamaha receiver and the refresh rate is just to slow. I put in the DVD Salt and as soon as there was a chase scene I got lot of blurring. Since I'm not going to get a new receiver any time soon is a HDMI to the TV and an optical to the receiver the best option?
You have no idea what you are doing which is why your results are not pleasing. Simply connect the equipment with HDMI cables as instructed and use only Blu-Ray discs as they are full-resolution sources. Your Blu-Ray player applies upscaling and processing to your DVD which is why it looks like crap and your receiver would do the same depending on the settings. You also need to check the settings on your player and HDTV to get them both aligned for the best picture quality.
Well I did use HDMI cables, and I also checked all of the setting on both the receiver and the TV. I did not use a Blu-Ray or player as I have not bought one yet. So are you saying the only way to not get a blur when using this set up would be to only watch Blu-Rays?? That does not make much sense. Also I would like to say I have some idea what I'm doing but obviously not as much as many people on this site, that's why I posted my question here. Thanks though for pointing out the obvious, It was very helpful of you.

Mac mini not connecting thru yamaha receiver

Hi, first time Mac user and first time poster here!
I unboxed my Mac mini today and first connected it via hdmi to my yamaha a/v receiver (RX-V667). This is how my tv and Blu Ray are connected as well, and then I have one single hdmi output to my tv.
there was no display on my tv. If I connect the Mac directly to the tv, then it works. The yamaha handles everything else fine (Oppo blu Ray, direct tv cable box, Xbox 360) but not the Mac. Why would this be?
ANy help is greatly appreciated. I'd like to avoid running 2 inputs into my tv
thanks!

I am using a Yamaha RX-V467 in a similar manner and it works just fine.
My connection to the Mini is HDMI->HDMI. FWIW, mine is a 2011 Mini Server
running Yosemite (previously was a 2010 Mini connected identically with no issues).
The cables could be an an issue.
Also, you may want to try a PRAM reset (OS X Yosemite: Reset your computer’s PRAM)
or an SMC reset (Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support).

Mini-DVI to Video to SD TV, no NTC display setting, fuzzy B&W picture

I've seen several posts on this topic but I haven't seen a specific one that addresses my problem. I apologize for rehashing an old topic but I'm fairly desperate at this point.
I have a Mini-DVI to Video adapter (from Best Buy and yes, I heard they had problems but haven't been able to find exactly what those problems are). I live in the United States. I am trying to connect my Macbook to my SD CRT TV and cannot get it to properly work. My first problem is that I do not have a display selection option for NTSC, 720x468 at 60Hz in my "Display" window. The second problem is that for all of the 60Hz display options that I do have the picture is in B&W and scrolls or displays multiple skinny images.
Please help!

The problem with the Dynex adapter, as near as I can tell, is that it doesn't have any EDID data inside of it. The Apple Mini DVI to Video Adapter does have a valid EDID inside of it. That's probably why your MB doesn't know it's connected to a TV, because it isn't being told it is by the plug-and-display driver (EDID), which is either missing or not correctly formed.

No picture w/ mini dvi adapter

ok. So, I have an Apple mini dvi to video adapter. I use it all the time on my tv's using both composite and s-video (s video on my HD flat screen, and composite on m cheaper tv.) Everything works great. no problems. Until I go to my girlfriend's house. I use the composite side to connect to her tv. I believe it is a Sylvannia or something like that. I get no video, just scrambled style lines.
Now I've seen this before, with my iPod video cable where i had to change the PAL/NATC settings. Something to do with American versus overseas products. No worries. But i can't seem to find those same settings on my MacBook.
Where do I change the settings so i can watch movies on her tv? like i said, I didn't change anything when i connected it to my tvs, i get great picture.
Please help !!!! I can't watch another movie with her on my little MacBook screen......

ME TOO !!!
I have connected the mini DVI to video adapter with the composite to my TV (about a 5 year old model). Also connected Audio cords to TV, and the audio is wonderful...BUT NO VIDEO! Actually I get about 5 seconds of a DVD or whatever, and then the screen turns blank...just nice audio thru TV. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you!!

My picture folder is missing from my laptop and I am having trouble with how to organize my pictures in folders

I have been trying to learn how to use my MacBook Pro better so I can get my photos on it. I do not like iPhoto at all because it was not letting me organize my photos the way I always did in Windows Explorer. I am now trying to use Lightroom and I have run into some issues with how my photos are showing up.
1. Whenever I removed my photos from iPhoto so I could start over, my Picture file in Finder disappeared. I do not believe I deleted it but somehow I must have. I was trying to just delete my pictures from Imgages under All My Files. I thought that All My Files was duplicating data and I don't want duplicate pictures on my computer. However, now I am just wondering if All My Files is just a link to my actual files. What is the purpose of that?
2. I imported one photo card to try to work with it and made a new Pictures folder on my desktop and arranged it using some folders and sub-folders I created.
3. I then uploaded these through lightroom.
4. Somehow, all of my photos were showing up in images, which is not where I wanted them and I deleted the duplicates.
5. Now many of my folders in the Picture file I created on the desktop are empty with no photos
6. I tried to restore my pictures from the trash to Images under All My Files and it keeps putting them into documents
7. I have been trying to learn how to use this computer but it seems so different from what I was always used to with Explorer. This should not be that complex but I search and search on the web and can't seem to find exactly what I need to help me

iMessage and FaceTime went down yesterday for some people. Mine is still down. My iMessage is saying the same thing about being activated. Sounds like you are still down too. Ignore the status page that says everything is fine - it lies.

Multiple logins on one computer - Different accounts, same picture...?

Greetings,
Since the iPhone 3.0 recently released push notifications, I decided to open an account for my wife that she could use on her iPhone. From what I understand, iChat now allows multiple logins on each computer.
I set everything up accordingly, noted that I am the admin on this computer, my picture pops into my ichat name. If I then enable her account on the same computer, her login also pops up next to my window. This is working according to plan.
However, if I try to change the picture on her ichat window it also changes on mine. What am I doing wrong here?
Cheers...

Hi,
iChat can not display different Buddy Pics for different Buddy Lists.
This may change with Snow Leopard.
Click the iChat Menu and use the Feedback option and post your wish there.
iChat can use one of 4 Buddy pics.
You can set a Pic in the iChat Buddy List by clicking on the current one and using the edit features.
If there is not one in the Address Book for yourself And this tends to be the one selected in System Preferences > Accounts > Your account although you can set them to be different (Three choices so far) it will default to one for the account type (A Running yellow man for AIM, A Blue Globe for @mac.com names and the Cloud for MobileMe names).
Apple have tended to suppose that if two or more people are going to be using a Mac that there are then Mac User Accounts set up on the computer and therefore there is no issue with Buddy Pics.
The iChat Buddy List is held on the AIM server (AIM names, @Mac.com [email protected] ones).
Part of the process is that the local Buddy list compares this to the Address Book and Add the Real names you have entered.
So only this name in the Address Book on that computer will show Real names if entered.
You can Export the Address Book on one computer and Import on the other to get them the same. (Or Sync via MobileMe if you have an Account)
You are getting in to the realms of your wife's Buddies being in your Address Book.
Did I mention another Mac User Account ?

How do you Combine Pictures into one Photo

I'm really re.tarded when it comes to this stuff.
I want to take 4 pictures and combine them, making like a montage and I have no clue how to do that.
Message was edited by: S.E.S.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Did your computer happen to have come with OmniGraffle? It is an amazing application and can create a collage very easily like this one I made out of 96 photos.
If it didn't come with your computer it's demo mode it will let you work with up to 10 items on a page.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

How to take a picture with my mac bok pro???

Years ago I took pictures and selfies with my MacBook Pro. After spending a lot of time only using my phone to take pics I'm only trying now to take one simple pic of my dog on the other side of my computer screen tonight. Now I can't seem to find out how to do this. The i-Photo at the bottom of the screen only shows me old photos and asks for locations. No. I try to look for help on my Mac to no avail. THE REST OF MY MICROSOFT FRIENDLY FAMILY ARE AMUSED. The 'support' is horrible, I find out through YAHOO - not Apple or my computer - that I need to go through Photo Booth. I remember seeing that years ago. Why is there no photo booth icon at the bottom of my screen??? When did it change to i-Photo, and why aren't the two integrated?? Why do I have to find answers through yahoo? I managed to get photo booth up for a while on my mac book, but seriously, I can't be doing this all the time, now it's gone again and still I have no pic of my dog hating the back of my screen. And I can't find it again! The question is still: How do I take a photo with my mac book? Please DO NOT refer me to a link. NOT LOOKING FOR AN AUTOMATED ANSWER. Also, some additional feedback, Siri is really inferior compared to OK Google in providing directions, answering general questions (understanding voice questions and providing answers) and making voice command calls. I will not be buying an Apple watch for now. I need to see a lot of other improvements, even only how to ask questions about existing products and features and get snappy answers, before I invest in a new Apple product. Disappointed, I always rooted for Apple.

Feel all better now?
1. The Photo Booth.app is located in the Applications directory of Macintosh HD on Mac OS X systems. But some Microsoft Friendly Family conspirator might have changed the name of the internal storage device, removed the Photo Booth.app icon from the Dock, or possibly deleted the app.
2. Photo Booth.app never DID change to iPhoto.app, or Photos.app. It always was and still is Photo Booth.app.
3. iPhoto and Photos (introduced in Yosemite 10.10.3) are separate programs primarily designed for organizing and editing digital photos, and cannot take selfies.
Once you 'snap' an image with Photo Booth, the images are displayed in the 'film roll' that appears at the bottom of the Photo Booth application after you snap the first image. Clicking on an image in that film roll will select it. Control+clicking offers the option to export or delete the image. Once an image is selected with a single click, click the "upload" icon beneath the film roll to see the options available.
(Yosemite 10.10.2 version illustrated below. Screen transparency means that the background image colors bleed through the menus illustrated below.)
4. There is a fast way to find and start the application called Photo Booth.app.
Click on the Spotlight icon in the upper right corner of your computer screen to search your computer for Photo Booth.app. Yes, there is a space between the words Photo and Booth. Press the enter/return key to open the application which will also enable the user-facing camera and illuminate a green LED.
Click the red button to initiate a 3-step countdown and a simulated flash of the screen to provide more light.
5. Once Photo Booth.app is open and running, 'right click' (if the Secondary click feature of your mouse or trackpad has been enabled in , System Preferences) on the Photo Booth program icon in the bottom 'Dock' of your screen, and select Options, Keep In Dock. That will keep the Photo Booth icon in the bottom program dock for fast future use.

How can I retrieve music and pictures from my Apple Tv?

I had thousands of picture, music and movie files on my Macbook Pro, which was synced to my Apple TV. I have since lost that Macbook Pro along with all the files on it. I bought a new Macbook Pro, but want to see if there is a way of getting all the old files from the Apple TV and putting them on my new Mac. I'd prefer not to pick apart the Apple TV to get to the hard drive. Is there any app or simple way to transfer files through Wifi, like a reverse home sharing? If there isn't there should be.

I assume this is a 1st gen and not the newer models (black box). In any case it is not meant to be used as a storage device and thus no easy way to retrieve
