Hello all

so i have the above amp, and my TV is a Samsung UE40MU6400, once in a blue moon i would have a problem were the HDMI audio would not be working, but if i turned the amp off and on again or the TV it would sort its self out, but no joy the last 3 days, i have no audio and have had to plug everything directly into the TV

I have updated the amp to the latest firmware, i have swapped around the cable that feeds from the amp to the TV, have tried plugging it in the ARC socket on the TV but no joy, it looks a lot like the TV is not seeing the amp, and if i go into the options on TV and look at the sound out options, i can only choose Tv speakers, Coax out or BT speakers.

The only inputs i have to my amp is my DVD player and PC and problem is the same on either, the only joy i did have was having the DVD player passing through the amp, and then turning the amp off, so the video signal remained, and then the TV switched to its own speakers with no problem, but as soon as i turn the amp back i get nothing.

Thinking about replacing the amp, but the problem my persist with a different amp(not yamaha)?
 
I tried a factory reset this morning, but no joy, even got new hdmi cables and still the same.

Can anyone recommend another amp? £400 budget, mostly used for TV, films gaming, using 5.1 atm
 
Well...

I replaced this amp in February with a Denon X1600h and am having problems with it dropping signal for a couple of seconds and then coming back on, still under warranty so will be getting sent back, guess I need to be looking for something else
