New av receiver is wired up and ready to go, though no accessories (remote, setup mic etc) as waiting on delivery.
Speaker setup is 2 fronts and a centre.

Have hdmi connection between TV (Samsung h6400) and AVR (denon x2000) out (both are labelled as ARC enabled) yet when I check the speakers out option on my TV, I see the following with 'Receiver' greyed out.

Have tried reversing the hdmi cable, unplugging and replugging, but no joy. Is there anything I'm missing? Do I need to enable ARC somehow? Shouldn't it just work out of the box?

Secondly (and remember I've done no mic setup), when using sky, when I set hdmi sound output to stereo I get good stereo from the receiver, but when I select dolby d I just get sound from my centre. This could just be a setup thing, or does anyone else have similar issues with sky?
