Hello all...
I recently bought a Humax HDR-Fox T2 and as a new user have a query about it. Can anyone please advise me whether the recorder can be attached to my Onkyo AV receiver? Currently I have all my equipment successfully running through it via HDMI connections, including a Sony DVD recorder, Sony Blu-ray player and an Xbox 360. However, if I try and connect the Fox T2 to the amp via HDMI, it isn't recognised - no picture or sound appears on the TV through the amplifier. I have checked the Onkyo and all my other AV hardware works in all HDMI ports.
I know the Humax recorder is working as it should because I am able to use it by connecting it straight to my TV, but I am obviously not getting the benefit of the amp at all in this way, especially when watching films on TV which are more effective with my surround system.
I have consulted the manual for the Humax and it doesn't mention amplifier connections at all. It does suggest a S/PDIF connection that I could link to a hi-fi unit (my Onkyo also has such a connection), but surely that would only pass through a sound signal.
Can anyone help at all, please?
Thanks!
