Humax PVR and HDmi

[moggie 939]

I have upgraded my PVR to a Humax to match my TV and it is excellent with many features. Just one thing............................

It has a hdmi connection on the back and there is a hdmi connection also on my tv. I connected the two as instructed, but get no sound or picture unless I ALSO connect the scart lead - then it is perfect!

So, am I actually receiving HD on the programmes which are broadcasting it at the time and if I am, how do I know?

Thanks everyone.

Ask the obvious first....

You are switching the TV to the HDMI input when plugged in with HDMI?

[deggers316]

yeh check the inputs and output settings on both,
the humax is excellent but two things it has not got which my other device has when i've recored a prog you cannot put markers on the playback or most important (to me anyway) you cannot edit

Audio output to HDMI .. or digital.

Oh dear! Thanks Chuck.......
I had not set the actual TV (which i use only as a monitor of course) to hdmi. Did not realise until I looked again that there was a separate setting rather than just digital further down the list on the Humax TV. It works now!!

Thanks all
