If we have this system set to listen to the radio or to the Aux setting for the TV, everything plays fine. When a DVD is played with this system, the sound will play real low for a couple of seconds and then quit completly. After that happens, no sound will play even as the radio or Aux. We have to turn the power off and back on to get it to work again. We can use it for days as long as we dont use the DVD player, but ass soon as we start a DVD the sound quits.
Mine did the same except that now audio will never ever work. Video works though.Mine did the same except that now audio will never ever work. Video works though.
Seem to have the same problem with my ht680. However, I noticed that the fan in the back never does come on and it should when the DVD is started, I believe. Any suggestions?Seem to have the same problem with my ht680. However, I noticed that the fan in the back never does come on and it should when the DVD is started, I believe. Any suggestions?
I have the exact same model, and have owned it for a few years with no problems at all, but suddenly two nights ago it began to cut out at random points on various selections (eg: AUX, DVD, Tuner, etc.) Sometimes it will play for hours, other times after only a few minutes it cuts out. My fan runs as it always has, and system shows no signs of a higher temperature than usual. I have gaming systems set up with it, so I am careful to watch the temperatures of each system to be sure none of them overheat.
Spydey24, could specify what you are recommending as to solving this issue. Are you suggesting to replace the original plug?

When you switch from another mode to the CD it plays without having to push the 'disc' button...but it will play only for a short time before shutting off. Try pushing the 'disc' mode, even though it's already playing, and see if it stays on. It did for me.
I have come to the conclusion that this system is full of glitches. the fan is notorious for quiting then the system overheats and your sound will cut out. Mine did the same thing. I ended up hooking the fan up to a adapter which helps with your issue. You need a 12Volt DC adapter and it is a .19Amp hope that helps.

Check your "Setup Menu" with NO DVD in the player. Could be the wrong format, should be 720p or 1080i or 1080p. Are you using Component cables to your TV or HDMI? if Component, check your connections, it is color coded but may be hard to see with most installations. Use a flashlight to make sure colors are correct Red to Red, Blue to Blue and Green to Green. Sounds like you've got cables mixed up. It happens to the best of us! and I do it for a living! Hope this helps
remember to turn the volume up on the cable box and down on the surround sound so you will get max audio input to the surround system and then adjust using the surround sound remote! good luck
I've had similar problems in the past. With audio problems trace the problem from the source to the amp.
1. What output is the cable box using for audio, digital or analog? 2. Is there a setting in the cable box to switch between digital and analog? 3. Once you have determined the output of the cable box check to make sure that it's going into the right output on the panasonic 4. This is where the problem usually is...what is the receiver expecting for sound, analog or digital? 5. Switching between the sources...the sound should be on one of them.
If you have direct cable into the television, you will need to use an audio output if available on the back of your set into your HT system.
If you are using cable w/ a cable box you have two options. You can still connect everything directly into the TV then reroute the audio to the HT system... or, you could hook only video to the TV and audio from the cable box to the HT system. Really up to you.
audio/video OUT from the cable box to the aux IN on the panasonic right? So you can see the output from the cable box but only sound from dvd. Are you changing the input on the tv when you go from watching the cable box to watching the DVD? the panasonic handles audio, but the video from each goes to two different inputs on the sony. I hope none of this sounds condescending.
this means you likeley have your cable box connected correctly, if you have it connected to a standard definition input (AV in or coaxial) make sure the that the dvd player is not in progressive mode.
