Assigning sound from an HDMI input on your Pioneer VSX-1016TXV involves a few steps:

1. Connect the HDMI source: Ensure your HDMI source device (e.g., Blu-ray player, game console) is connected to an HDMI input on the receiver using an HDMI cable.

2. Set the HDMI Audio Out on the source device (optional): Some source devices allow you to choose the audio output format for HDMI. If available, set it to "PCM" or "Linear PCM" instead of "Bitstream" to ensure the receiver can decode the audio directly.

3. Navigate to "Input Assign" on the receiver:

Press the RECEIVER button on the remote.

Press the SETUP button.

Use the UP/DOWN or < / > buttons to select "Input Assign" and press ENTER.

4. Select the HDMI Input:

Use the UP/DOWN or < / > buttons to choose the HDMI input you connected your source device to.

Press ENTER.

5. Assign the Input Source:

Use the < / > buttons to choose the appropriate input source for your device (e.g., DVD, TV, Game) associated with the HDMI input.

Press ENTER.

6. Repeat for other HDMI inputs (optional): If you have additional HDMI sources connected, repeat steps 4-6 for each input.

7. Verify audio output:

Turn on your source device and ensure audio is playing.

Turn up the volume on the receiver.

Use the INPUT SELECTOR buttons on the receiver or remote to switch between your HDMI source and other inputs. You should hear sound from the selected source.

Additional Tips:

If you're still having trouble, consult the Pioneer VSX-1016TXV user manual for detailed instructions and troubleshooting tips. You can download the manual here: https://pioneerelectronics.com/pio/pe/images/portal/cit_11221/315642730VSX1016TXVOperatingInstructions.pdf

Check the settings on your TV. Some TVs have an audio return channel (ARC) feature that can send audio from the TV to the receiver through the HDMI cable. Make sure ARC is enabled on both the TV and the receiver.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
