Hi Yamaha team,
Thanks for the update on the manual. However, can you please help me on my Starhub Hubstation HD issue? I really do not want to power on and off the Hubstation HD all the time, as it wastes a lot of time. And also, I can't seem to get ARC to work, though I am using ARC link for my TV (HDMI1 according to the manual). Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Boxster,

We are looking into this matter for sure. Because we are in Commercial building and we don't have Starhub Set-Top Box and the service, hence we will need more time to look into this matter. If BD Player works fine, very high chance might not be the HDMI on YSP2200 problem.

Anyway we had no concrete test against which is the main problem, so we would appreciate your kindness to allow us to have more time over this matter.

We will PM you once we rectify where is the fault.

Apologise for the inconvenience my friend.

Cheers!

Hi Yamaha team,
Thanks for the reply. That's all I need, as I was not sure if the matter was being looked at. It's currently extremely painful to power cycle the Hubstation HD everytime I wanna watch it. I am wondering if any other members have encountered similar problems.....but I worry moving it to this thread, some members may not get to see it :(

I finally had time to try your suggestions but eventually nothing works.

unlike the PS3 console, xbox s 360 doesnt have the option to specify optical as audio. anyway i called xbox support and had a 1 to 1 exchange but still the same issue, xbox claim that if you have both hdmi and s/pdif connection, audio will be routed to your optical cable.

the dtv/cbl input only specify which port to connect your cable, doesnt route video or audio.

thanks to my samsung tv, there is an option for external speakers. I need to switch to tv speakers whenever i watch with hdmi audio/video. hassle for x360!

thanks and kudos to yamaha for this kind of support! more power and keep it up!



Hi!

You can't force it bro.

Do give a check over your Xbox 360 HDMI Audio Settings. Set the HDMI Audio to OFF and try.

Afterwhich if it still doesn't work, see below:

Let us know if you could get it work again.

Cheers!

Hi boxster & Yamaha team. I just bot the Yamaha ysp 2200 a few days ago and i m encountering the EXACT same problem with Starhub HD Hub Station. I am using a LG 50PG70 Plasma TV so u can rule out incompatibility with the TV. HUBStation is also connected to Ysp on HDMI2. It seems like the hubstation needs to do some kind of handshake (sync) with the YSP before they can work together. But for some reason the settings don't get locked into either the Hubstation or Ysp. I noticed that it's a similar type of handshake that takes place when I connect the hubstation to the tv the first time or when power is reset on the hubstation.

Hope that Yamaha team can hv a word with Starhub on this. Thanks!

Hi!

Noted your current situation and comments.

We will try contact Starhub over this matter but we won't garantee what Starhub can do for all of us.

Hope you understand.

Cheers!

Hi all, just got my Yamaha YSP-2200 yesterday evening, and all was good till I connected the Hubstation HD to it. My setup is Sony KDL40EX520 connected to YSP via ARC, BD player to hdmi1 for YSP, Hubstation HD to hdmi2. When I watch BD via hdmi1, all is good. However, when I switch to hdmi2, I see blue screen flashing. When I power off the Hubstation, and power it back again, the images come in. This morning, when I wake up to try again (all machines were on standby mode), the blue screen happened again! I had to once again power cycle the Hubstation to let images appear. Anyone has faced similar problem? Do note that I had swap cables and connected the Hubstation directly to the tv, and it works. Any suggestions would be welcomed!

Thanks in advance!

Hi boxster, I jus combed the manual & I suspect we need to turn hdmi control setting to on. This will enable video & audio from hubstation to pass thru to tv if ysp is off. Hv u tried this? I can only try it coming wkend. Let me know if u succeed earlier.

Hi xanluke,

Thanks bro! Let us know if you or Boxster could make it work by changing the CEC Function [HDMI Control].

We had so far no feedbacks over this matter till Boxster highlighted.

Anyway thanks bro!

Cheers!

Hi Xanluke,
HDMI pass-through works perfectly with my BD player, so I do not think it's the pass-through that is the problem. At least I know I am not the only person with this problem :) I can't seem to get HDMI control to work with my Sony LED TV, it worked the first time I turned it on (means I can turn off the SB when I turned off the TV), but when I tried it again, it doesn't work :( I am pretty sure the KDL-40EX520 is ARC enabled on HDMI1 input (For TV). I have not tried much, as I am not home most of the time, I will try to check it again tonight.

Thanks and if anyone has a solution for me, my wife would really thank you :)

Hi!

We have Home Theater Systems that can use with PC, TVs, and Media Players but not those PC Speakers types.

We had ranges from Front Surround Systems to HomeTheater-in-a-Box and to higher priced types, all depends on your budget.

See: http://sg.yamaha.com/en/products/audio-visual/

Let us know your budget and idea, we can advice you few solutions that you can zoom down.

Cheers!

Hi Boxster / Xanluke,

Could you try this way?

Power on Set-Top Box [Starhub] 1st Before the Yamaha and Your LED TV.

Let me know your situation after you tried this way and see what is the outcome.

Thank you bro.

Cheers!

hi, thanks for the prompt reply. if below 500 can find 4.1 or 5.1 ?

http://sg.yamaha.com/en/products/audio-visual/speaker-systems/speaker-packages/ = are all this compatible with computer,tv,media player?

Hi,

You seems looking for speakers alone. Well these speakers cannot work without an Amplifier. Therefore, you will need a something from here.

Based on your budget, i think you rarely could find any models from us. Can you up a $300 more to top-up to $800?

Cheers!

Hello, I will give it a try, but I believe I tried all combinations. As long as the SB or the cable box is off, the next time you on it, the blue screen happens. I will try again tonight to double confirm.

Thanks Boxster.

Mainly is to test the HDMI Control function over the Set-Top Box.

Appreciate it.

Cheers!

No problem! But just 1 question about HDMI control, when I first set HDMI control to ON, I was able to use my Sony TV remote control to on/off the SB together with the TV, but when I tried it again last night, it seemed to fail. Any idea how I can "save" the settings? Is that the reason why the I am having the blue screen, since some settings are not being saved?

Thanks in advance!
