Swing, I hooked up our Sony BDP S580 from 2011-2012 and at first it did not sync the audio and video (audio plays ahead). I replaced the HDMI with a basic BestBuy Rocketfish cable and it plays much better now. Not sure if this could be a solution for you depending on your DVD model. You probably have already tried it but maybe connect the DVD player to the SAT/CAT cable into the receiver since you know you get a signal from a device with this cable. Cables have increased in capability since 2012 (in my case). This receiver was so much easier to setup and is so much easier to use than our Denon which the kids constantly managed to get confused with going between video game consoles, dvd players,cable or ipod. My point being there is very little that could affect the signal from your bluray into the receiver unless its simply older than 2012 and it does not have the minimum capability or the cable is the age of the dvd player and replacing it may solve your issue. I would not commented if I didn't have 6 yr old Sony bluray player too and have no issues after upgrading the cable between the two devices. Hope this helps
I would recommend:
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The diagram in the manual shows two HDMI spots, but they are not in use here. I really don’t know.
