My HTS9800 has strated to sound very echoey and picture has lines in it when playing dvd which get worse when sound volume is increased.
Connection to tv is via component video.

Cheers

Check that you have connected the component video lead to the correct sockets in both the TV and the HTS9800W.

There are two sets of Phono (cinch) connectors, which are grouped together.

Red / Green / Blue - Component connectors - video only

Red / White / Yellow - Stereo audio and composite video connectors - audio and vide

If you have inadvertently connected the red audio connector to the red component input on the TV, it would cause similar symptoms as you describe.

Why do my cd decks sound echoey

It might still be a installation issue but if you are using a Surround Sound type amp that might be on. If the unit is doing it by itself then there could be an internal problem with a delay line or A/D converter.
In all of my years I have never heard of this symptom though.

I'M HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE SOUND ON MY LAPTOP.WHEN I PLAY A DVD THE PICTURE SHOWS BUT NO SOUND.HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

mcdevito75 here, It may be the sound track on the DVD itself, try another DVD and see how the sound is. If the sound is OK without any DVD being played you simply have to adjust the sound while playing DVD"s either at the speakers or with the volume control on your key board.

Have an acer aspire 5516 and cannot find any sound when playing a dvd

check your sound and audio devices. Or you can see icon tray on the right-bottom. See picture "speaker" on there? Double click it, and please be attention in that check in "Mute All". Don't get that check, if you wanna hear some sound after you are playing some DVD's in PowerDVD software.

WHARFEDALE DVD 750 - N0 SOUND ON PLAYBACK

Clean the player with a disc cleaner with a drop of the solvent on each brush on the surface of cleaner CD and play it in the player. If sound quality improves then keep running the cleaner disc till its sound becomes ok. If this does not work then then there is problem on the output amplifier circuit which can be checked out by a professional technician.........sodeep

Sound on pc ( Vista )echoes and indistinct works on device and other pc's

I think all sounds to be going mute go to control panel - sounds options & go to volume tab - then advanced - then increase all the volume bar.

I think it will be helpful if the problem is this.

No Sound when I play a DVD, but I do have sound when I play a Music CD

Open your sound controls to make sure nothing is muted or set on low volume.
If that's not the case, open your audio drivers program and check to see if nothing is muted.

Echo when playing surround sound

You want to adjust the "DELAY" setting on the receiver. The standard (default) delay setting is 20mS, which may need to be shortened if your speakers are well behind your listening position. In a proper setup, you should not detect a significant echo effect in surround programming (unless it is a purposely "echoey" scene). Also, make sure you don't have any of the "enhanced" DSP modes engaged -- some of these are quite echoey. if it has speaker set up, there should be a setting for distance. You might have it set close, so that by the time you hear the fronts, the rears should go. Try setting it farther each time until it sounds right. good luck
