QuestionCan't get this receiver to pass HDR video from Xbox to Samsung TV. HDR works on a direct connection with same cables, but even when enabling "enhanced" HDMI formats, HDR does not go through with 4K UHD. Bait-and-switch.
Asked 4 years ago by Nate.
- Answer Answering my own question. Finally got this to work. Turns out the Geek Squad installers plugged the HDMI into the wrong input on the TV. Switched it over, and now HDR and 10 bit support are enabled.

QuestionI have a Bose Acoustimass 5 Series II system that still works great. The sub plugs into the speaker ports on receiver and the sub wires go to the L&R speakers. I've been using this with my Denon receiver. Can I do the same w/ this unit?
