Why doesn't my new TCL Roku 4K tv recognize my Marantz NR1605 AV receiver?

I have connected my cable box to the appropriate HDMI slot on my receiver and using the HDMI arc output, from the receiver to the tv's HDMI arc slot. When trying setup, the tv can't see the receiver. When I connect the cable box to the tv directly, into the HDMI 1 slot, it plays through perfectly although sound obviously only plays from the tv speakers. I called the support units of both TCL and Marantz. TCL made a valiant effort with all kinds of suggestions to the settings in their tv app. Marantz couldn't even be civil and only blamed the tv company. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Gerry

Hello Gerry, what type of HDMI cable do you use for the interconnection, a 1.4 or a 2.0?
With the 2.0 you ensure that both devices are within the communication range and therefore should be recognized
Tell me the type of cable you use
I wait your answer
I sent you the link so you can download the user manual
Greetings Franco Dosil

Hola Gerry, que tipo de cable HDMI utilizas para la interconexion, un 1.4 o un 2.0?

Comentame el tipo de cable que utilizas
Espero tu respuesta
Te envio el link para que puedas descargar el manual de usuario
Saludos Franco Dosil

SOURCE: PS3 connection to Yamaha HTR-6130 Av Receiver

URNOTME is right. HDMI is great and all, but wish i would have spent a few more dollars on a unit that supports switching. htr-6130 does pass-through, so you have to use seperate audio connections. really there is no use running HDMI into the receiver and then into the receiver and THEN to the tv. just go straight to the tv, then run your audio either optical (best) or coaxial.

SOURCE: XBox 360 to Reciever to TV via HDMI no sound

I recently got the same receiver and had the same problem. Here's what I was told - and it worked for me:

Even though HDMI cables carry audio and video, for whatever reason this reciever won't accept audio through hdmi. Apparently only much more expensive recievers carry audio through hdmi. What you have to do is run optical audio cables from your xbox, cable box, dvd player or other video device to the optical inputs on the back of the reciver. Then you customize the scene buttons to match your video and audio inputs.

You can get these optical cables pretty cheap on line or even at target. Don't get ripped off by Best Buy for these cables. I love best buy, but they rip off on cables!

This receiver is great - once I got it all figured out and running right I've loved it! Hope everything works out for you!

Does a Roku Stick Work on Any TV? The Roku Streaming Stick 4K is designed to be compatible with any TV that has an HDMI port. This means it will work on both smart and non-smart TVs, as long as they have an HDMI connection.
If your TV is analog, don't worry! You can still use the Roku Streaming Stick 4K by using an AV Composite Converter. This will allow you to enjoy all the features of the Roku Streaming Stick on your TV.

All Roku streaming players will work for any television with an HDMI connection, so any Roku player can be connected to a 4K UHD or HDR-compatible television.

I am getting no sound when on TV sound.

Yes, to get sound from your Roku TV to your receiver when using the TV's built-in apps (such as switching to TV sound), you might need more than just RCA cables. RCA cables only carry analog audio signals, and many modern devices, including Roku TVs, use digital audio signals for better quality.
Here's what you can do to ensure you're getting sound from your Roku TV to your receiver:
  1. Check Audio Settings on Roku TV:
    • Go to your Roku TV's settings menu.
    • Look for the audio settings section.
    • Make sure the audio output is set to the correct option for your receiver. This is usually HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) or Optical audio.
  2. Use HDMI Cable with ARC Support:
    • If your receiver and TV support HDMI ARC, connect an HDMI cable between the ARC HDMI port on your TV and the ARC HDMI port on your receiver.
    • Ensure that the HDMI input on your receiver corresponds to the HDMI ARC output on your TV.
    • In the TV's audio settings, select HDMI ARC as the audio output.
  3. Use Optical Cable (if no HDMI ARC):
    • If your TV and receiver don't support HDMI ARC, you can use an optical audio cable (Toslink cable).
    • Connect one end of the optical cable to the optical audio output on your TV.
    • Connect the other end to the optical audio input on your receiver.
    • In the TV's audio settings, select optical audio as the audio output.
  4. Configure Receiver Settings:
    • Ensure that your receiver is set to the correct input source for audio. For example, if you're using HDMI ARC, select the corresponding HDMI input on your receiver.
  5. TV App and Volume Settings:
    • When using apps on your Roku TV, make sure the volume is turned up and not muted within the app itself.
    • Adjust the TV's volume settings to an appropriate level that allows your receiver to amplify the sound effectively.
  6. Test with Different Content:
    • Test the setup with different apps on your Roku TV to ensure that the issue is not specific to a certain app.
If you've tried these steps and are still not getting sound from your Roku TV through your receiver, it's possible that there might be compatibility issues between your TV and receiver. You could also try reaching out to Roku's customer support or your receiver's manufacturer for further assistance.

My Pyle PT694BT receiver plays video, but plays static when connected to Apple TV 4K.

There are a few possible reasons why your Pyle PT694BT receiver is playing static when connected to your Apple TV 4K. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can take:

  1. Check the cables: Make sure that all the cables are properly connected and in good condition. Sometimes, a loose or damaged cable can cause static or no signal.
  2. Check the settings: Ensure that the settings on your receiver are configured to accept the correct input from your Apple TV 4K. Check the user manual of your receiver for specific instructions.
  3. Update the firmware: If your receiver has outdated firmware, it may not be compatible with your Apple TV 4K. Check the Pyle website for firmware updates and follow the instructions carefully to install the latest version.
  4. Try a different HDMI port: Sometimes, the HDMI port you are using on your receiver may be faulty. Try connecting your Apple TV 4K to a different HDMI port on your receiver to see if that resolves the issue.
  5. Test with a different device: If the problem persists, try connecting a different device to your receiver using the same cable and HDMI port to see if the issue is with your Apple TV 4K or your receiver.

I have a Marantz SR5004 AV Surround Receiver. There is an HDMI cable from the cable box to the Marantz and another from the Marantz to a Samsung HDTV. Everything is fine when the cable box is set to an HD...

Hello First off i would determine if the same thing happens when the cable box is connected directly to the TV with the hdmi cable.

If the picture goes out get a new box from your cable company.

If it works fine then its time to call Marantz

My Denon avr 4310 does a similar thing and after a lot of research it seems that the problem is with how digital signals are sent through the HDMI cable and how the control board of your receiver processes those signals.

Here what I mean

HDMI is meant to simplify connections by transmitting video, audio and CONTROL signals through 1 cable.

The problem becomes when you introduce a "middleman" in this case your receiver the control signal doesn't always get interpreted correctly.

My TV has the capability to "turn off" the "control" signal coming through the cable if yours does try that first (i have a sharp 52" led) this solved some of the issues.

My receiver has the capability to accept different inputs and merge them so here is how I get around the problem.

1. I use HDMI for video signal but also use the optical for audio this allows me to send the "complete" hdmi signal through the receiver and to the TV this complicates things but also allows you to get audio through your tv speakers so if you want to watch something late at night you aren't waking people up when the receiver gets loud. This stopped things like the video flickering or turning off.

You will have to play with your menu's to see if you can do this on your unit.

How to fix this easily? Dump HDMI and use component (red, blue green RCA's) for video yes its still HD and yes you will have to run audio separately. but it eliminates all the digital processing issues that receiver manufacturers haven't worked out.

I was pretty upset when I spent $1500 for my Denon receiver and Denon then told me that HDMI doesn't always make anything better.

Hope that helps

Remove the HDMI cable (out) to the speakers from the receiver.
Connect regular speaker wire from the receiver to the speakers.
Of course, remove the (now extra) HDMI cable from the tv.
That will remove the loop.
