component and composite resolution is always fixed to 576i... the changing resolution thing only applies to hdmi

Sorry a bit naive in this area. If I connect both hdmi and component to my tv(toshiba lcd) do i hv to set it on the tv/decoder or it will auto adjust accord. to the correct resolution.
Thanks.

bro,

Do you mean after entering into the signal strength page in CH 18, it supposed to have the "OK" button at the left bottom of the screen ? I tried many time but still see no button for me to choose the channel intended sad.gif
*
You might want to turn off on the decoder as bro auranthas mentioned. Last night I changed back my setting to #1 setting ( just toying ard) and it wont change back after I pressed ok button. I hv to turn off the decoder and on it again. After that I got back to setting #1 but when I changed the channel the decoder just went dead. Panic a bit I switch off the main and on it again and its working. Tried again the other way ard and the same thing happened again. I guess if problems arised we should switch off and on the decoderagain and again.

me too...need to use my tv remote...

Correct me if im wrong. The vol only works with rca cables(red/white).For hdmi connection u hv to read the manual where u can programmed the remote by entering specific code for yr tv and then control the vol by using astro remote.

The AVR is put in standby mode. AVR will bypass the video from decoder direct to plasma. The tv will switch one time normally but when for astro byond, it is more than 1 time. There was 1 time it happened 3 times and there was no picture after that. I have to off and on the decoder. I am using onkyo 607.
*
Not familiar with onkyo setup. Maybe u can post it in onkyo thread. A lot of sifu there can guide u. Im not using the bypass mode as I read my denon avr2809 wont make a lot a diff if i use this function. sad.gif
