BHZ Boy Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 I'm new, so I don't know all the conventions of the Forum board. So, if I am posting the wrong kind of question - please forgive me! Here's my question... I hooked up my DTS ready DVD player to my Harman Kardon AVR 7000 DTS ready receiver and get NO AUDIO. The DVD player is hooked up via a S cable for video and optical cable for audio. All other modes deliver audio from the DVD player, so it's not a "hook-up" question. I am bewildered. Any thoughts on what I could be doing wrong? Thanks in advance for any ideas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justin_tx_16 Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 is it DTS ready as in ready to decode it? if so make sure you tell it to decode DTS. I think i read that you have to tell it to do that in one of the modes. ------------------ -justin SoundWise Tech Support I am an amateur, if it is professional; ProMedia help you want email Amy or call her @ 1-888-554-5665 or for an RA# 800-554-7724 ext 5 Klipsch Home Audio help you want, email support@klipsch.com or call @ 1-800-KLIPSCH RA# Fax Number=317-860-9140 / Parts Department Fax Number=317-860-9150s> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mlstrass Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 There should be a setting in your DVD player's set-up section. I believe you need to choose PCM/bitstream, but verify in your manual. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boa12 Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 yea in your dvdp set-up make sure the dts is on. the players usually default to dts off. ------------------ My Home Systems Page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zandern Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 I had that problem to. First of all you are right with the optical cable, keep it hooked up to that. Next look at the cover of the dvd, does it say dts, or just dolby digital, because not all dvd's are dts. then go to your dvd player. Turn it to stream/pcm, at least thats what I had to set it to. Yours may differ look in the manual. Finally on my denon 2802 I have to turn my input mode to auto, which automatically detects which singal it is,or turn it to dts. Usually the auto picks it up better. All of these setting have to be done for it to work. Just because your receiver has dts doesn't mean it will detect it automatically so look in the manual or on your receiver. Hopefully this should work. Enjoy!

seventeenmonkeys Posted March 11, 2002 Share Posted March 11, 2002 i bought my dvd player (Sony) before my first receiver so when i bought my receiver it didn't know either why i couldn't dts to play. but i beleive all dvd players have to be enabled to read the dts tracks on the dvds.
