    My onkyo dtr-7 stereo receiver does not have a vcr button, It has 4 video buttons which I tried what you said for all 4 of them, no good, nothing happens.

    The receiver reset, I saw clear just for a second or 2 , then the screen went blank. I don't know if this is normal, after I got it back up and running, I only can here sound from speakers when I engage direct. i have checked all my inputs, they are all set right. I guess I got more going on with this receiver then a reset can fix. I only paid 20 dollars for it at a yard sale.

Do a Factory reset. it's most likely a speaker setting issue. press VCR and wille holding it press the Standby button. once you see clear on the screen it is done. try it now!

Very dull sound from the 4 rear spekers on my 7.1 set up for the ONKYO 802. This happens for the satellite input for tv channels, is this normal that I will only get surround sound via a disc or other...

Your basic setup through the Onkyo establishes the base levels of each speaker channel with test tones. The tones should also sound pretty much the same from speaker to speaker.

How a given surround mode works with a given input would be documented in the manual. Even stereo sources can be proecessed into some form of 7-speaker output.

"ONKYO 802" is not unique. Are there letters?

PCM is what it's receiving from the DVD player. The player has output bitstream settings, too, maybe even speaker configurations and distances. Read its manual.

I have an ONKYO TX-SR606 receiver and I am trying to listen to FM radio using more than just the center channels. I have gone through the setup screens for the tuner and only Analog choices are available....

Hello,
In reality the correct way to listen to radio or any music source for that matter is in 2 channel stereo. What this means is that the front left and right will play and also the subwoofer. If you absolutely want all your speakers to play while listening to fm, than press the Multi channel button and set it to direct, or any other sound field that you may desire.
Good Luck

Garbled / feedback sounds from powered subwoofer

The surround processing portion of the unit has a problem. In either stereo or direct mode, the digital procesing is bypassed. This could be just the surround processing IC, but that IC may not be available as a separate part. I would suggest that you bring this unit to an authorized Onkyo service center for an estimate.
