    Thanks Gort, I'll try that. But will it mean switching settings on the TV/unplugging the RCA Cables every time I switch source?

    I don't think you can re-assign rca inputs on your particular Samsung.
    If I'm correct, the TV first appeared 2009, there's a firmware update from 2010.

    The screen size is 1360x768 if I'm looking at the correct model, in which case set the humax resolution to 720p and not 1080i or 1080p
    You may have to do a factory reset, default reset, without format and choose 720p on initial install for the 720p to stick, you'll lose your schedule list of programmes you want to record so take a note or picture with camera phone or similar.
    let us know how you get on

    Thats odd as i have a Sony Bravia and its doing exactly the same thing

    Any if you re-power the TV instead of the PVR does it restore sound.

    Could it could be that a timing issue with the TV - Perhaps assuming a different PAL version?

    In my case the TV and all other connected devices access audio via the TV's optical connection which in turn connects to a Playbar.

    I'd be surprised if anyone could answer that. But as the issue was first reported back in 2013 IMO the best course is to presume that it will never be fixed and find a work round that suites you.

    I actually purchased a Bravia KDL 32 705B because of the issues some report with Sony TV's, but for the life of me cannot replicate any sound issues - 2000T is connected to HDMI 3 (1800T is connected to HDMI 2 and no issues with that either) - Caveat I have not tried other inputs.

    I have tried every combination I can think of, unit recording or not, SD and HD, switched on first then TV, no problem. TV on first then unit, no problem. Switched audio option on unit between stereo and multi, same, no problem.....baffled.

    If someone wants me to try anything else feel free to suggest, I'd like to get to the bottom of this one, and btw Humax Towers are fully aware.

    I'm running through a Sony kdl32d3000 and it is a problem. Only way to fix is to perform a cold reset. It then works for a while, switching the box off and on etc.

    But then I'll switch it on and no sound, so it's back to square 1

    I had no problems with my HDR2000T until that software update, now I have the same problem with the sound going off as yourselves. I will keep watching the forum for a solution. My tv is a toshiba.

    Thanks for the reply Barry. I'm going to try a few things and will post back here when I can. I'd also like to get this solved (for obvious reasons).

    This is another 1366 x 768 set, introduced around 2007.
    Can you do a factory/default reset without formatting and on initial install choose the 720p resolution option and report back?
