And really little difference between 1080i and p but in certain motion situations,

Again why many sport people say they prefer 720P to 1080i, but for average non fast action TV or movie little difference really, and 1080 even i much better res. (but at half the bandwidth of P).

Did you ever resolve your problem with the audio?

I am going through a similar issue with a Scientific Atlanta TWC HD cable box and a new Sony KDL46 S5100 TV.

The connection between the Cable box and the TV is via a HDMI cable. Only connection between the two. Randomly during the first few minutes of viewing the Audio will drop and then come back, usually staying on for the rest of the night.

TWC has been out to replace the box 2 times and the HDMI cable has also been replaced.

Wed , 1 July Best Buy is bring a replacement Sony. Very frustrating.
Nope. I found out that turning the TV on/off didn't resolve it, so it's not a TV issue. I found out that turning the received off and then on fixed the problem.

Presuming that works, you could have:
- a defective HDMI port on the DirecTV box
- a defective HDMI port on the TV
- a defective HDMI cable between the DirecTV receiver and the TV
- a bad/incompatible setting on the menus of either the TV or the DirecTV box (or both)

If you have another HDMI cable you can swap in temporarily I'd try that first.

Stupid suggestion - you've made sure that the volume on the TV is "up" high enough and not muted or too low ?

is it an older Panny? Maybe it can't decode the audio?
It's about 1.5 years old. It should be able to decode the audio. Any idea what is passed through at the 1080p resolution? It should be the standard 5.1 right?

All Audio and video goes directly to the TV.

PS3 > A/V Receiver > TV -- via HDMI. Audio and video through the receiver, and video is passed through to the TV, and the receiver does all the audio.

I don't have the directv receiver running audio through the receiver because I don't want to have the receiver on just to watch tv. I even tried turning on "Surround sound" in the TV ... nothing.. I'm stumped.

are you sending audio to your Audio receiver directly from your DVR via HDMI? and then HDMI from your audio receiver to your TV?

Or are you connecting HDMI to your TV and then Fiber from your TV to your Audio Receiver?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DirecTV-Our-First-1080p-movie-22343835 Tue, 05 May 2009 16:31:29 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DirecTV-Our-First-1080p-movie-22341842 DirecTV DVR, Audio receiver, TV, etc.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DirecTV-Our-First-1080p-movie-22341842 Tue, 05 May 2009 10:43:25 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-DirecTV-Our-First-1080p-movie-22341827 said by BuckarooB:

Yes - when both 1080i and 720p front panel indicator LEDs are on, the receiver is outputting a 1080p signal via HDMI.
And the Reason is--There is NO 1080P lite on the current build of D* receviers for 1080P resolution format :)

Also noticed on my HR21 the LEDs on the front are lit up to showing both 1080i and 720p... I guess that's DirecTV way to say 1080p output.
