GUI - OSD: Does anyone know if this receiver displays volume settings (or any other info) on the TV screen as you change it?

For the cable box it shows up on the screen of the tv, but I haven't tried the other devices.

There are audio settings in the menu, I was able to play with those and get good volume. The TV is at another location so I can't help you with specifics now.

It will control the tv volume, but you will have to adjust the soundbar manually,and as you turn up the volume, you should get the increase in sound that you want.

I'm not sure how it works... but when I switch channels my receiver shows how it adjusts such as -3db or +2 db to even it out. There's also 3 kinds of night mode: low, medium, and high that could also help.Actually I just looked at it... it says "Dialog Norm" then it lists the dB adjustment.Edit: I finally had a chance to look around at it. I guess it is only on the 876 and 906. I guess I never realized the volume difference since most of the time I skip commercials since I use a DVR. Sorry for the trouble man.

I own a Samsung LED and when I setup this as an "external speaker" from the TV setup, the functionality of volume at TV gets disabled. So I have to use the new remote.

Have this same problem with Onkyo TX-SR606- tried different codes but can't seem to get any to it properly. Best I can get is to turn receiver off and adjust volume. But will not turn on with remote.Maybe a different code??

Mine is connected directly to my receiver and I too keep the speakers on the TV muted.

Yes! Just go through the settings and pay attention to the VOX On or OFF display in the settings mode. Use the 'Channels Up' button to make the change. Hope that helps.

I don't believe anything is supposed to show visibly. It just changes the mode of the remote to control the receiver rather than the main zone. That is indicated in the manual on their site. That manual is much more detailed than the Quick Start guide shipped with the receiver.

Yes and No. For a while after changing the volume, the volume and time are displayed. After, the screen scrolls a sort of screensaver text of useless info about the unit.

I suggest first you refer to your receiver manual and tweak from there. if you use it for music and movies you may have more than one setting. it will be trial and error and you might have to make more adjustments after the break in period. good luck and enjoy!

You can try going into Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Sound/Manage Audio Devices. You may see speakers and headphones and if you're lucky, you may see your TV is listed. Worth a try.

My friend has been using this converter and here is the reponse he sent to the question......I guarantee he did not go to his sound settings depending if he has windows XP, Win 7 or 8. It looks like this below. Sometimes you have to manually set it since your computer may not be ready to draw sound from the device to the speakers.

That's the default setting of the TV. It can be changed in the TV settings.

I installed the wires as shown by the color-coded outlets on the unit and the TV and have had no problem. The unit does have a sound control operated by the remote--is the sound adjusted to an appropriate level? How about the TV's (or other receiving unit) sound controls? Does it have a "mute" button?

I haven't been able to control the volume with my TV controller, you can with a universal controller set up correctly.

Check your TV to see if there is a setting for controlling the audio out. On mine it is under the Audio menu and is called Audio Out. Setting it to Variable does what you want.
