 HDMI problem June 27, 2008
David Seelye (Seattle WA, USA)
First I have to say this is a nice receiver/amp for a technical person. The amp allows you to re-map video to audio ports, it has plenty of ins and outs for connecting gear. Sound quality is grat and the auto setup feature does a good job of setting levels and EQ. The other settings are not accessed intuitively. The manual is not clear on how to access the units settings. Maybe it is just me but I had to read the same section 4 times and paw through manual to figure out how to access common settings.
The problem I am having is with the HDMI out. I have a 720x480 Samsung DVD-R connected to the component, and optical audio inputs on the amp. The amp is connected to my new 46" Samsung 650 1080p 120hz HDTV. While watching, the image flashes between low and high brightness at varying rates between about 0.5 and 4 seconds. If I switch to component video on the amp, all the problems disappear. This is very annoying considering how great HDMI is supposed to be and how much I paid for the system
All evidence points to the Component to HDMI conversion in the amp. I will probably keep the amp in hopes that I can find a fix for this issue and keep using Component video until I get a blue-ray player.
Recommend you buy something else until Yamaha corrects this issue, or can tell folks how to avoid it in the settings.
 What a difference! May 21, 2008

Originally purchased the Onkyo 705 and it sounded good for a while and then all of its issues came out. I plugged this Yamaha into the same setup and WOW! The sound that this Yamaha puts out is so clear. The Onkyo at its best is not even close. The onkyo needs 8 inches of space above the receiver in order to not burn up. I have less then 2 inches of space above this receiver and it still runs extremely cool. A Yamaha fan for life now!
