The Pioneer Vsx-42 Receiver Is Not Recognizing Hdmi/source Conected To Tv.
The Pioneer VSX-42 receiver is not recognizing HDMI/Source connected to Smart TV (Samsung 8000) for TV/Cable and/or PS3. It will work well at times and then when I turn it back on it does not work. I can get audio from cable only when I turn off TV, but if I turn the TV on there is no audio or video.
I will appreciate your help on this matter.
Thanks.
