Troubleshooting—Continued

The surround back speakers produce no sound

The surround back speakers are not used with all listening modes. Try another listening mode (page 42).

Not much sound may be produced by the sur- round back speakers with some sources.

Check the Speaker Configuration (page 56).

The subwoofer produces no sound

If the source material contains no audio in the LFE channel, the subwoofer produces no sound.

Check the Speaker Configuration (page 56).

There’s no sound with a certain signal format

Check the digital audio output setting on the source component. On some game consoles, such as those that can play DVDs, the default setting is off.

With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an audio format from a menu or with the AUDIO button on your DVD player’s remote controller.

The volume cannot be set to 79 (99)

Check to see if a maximum volume has been set (page 67).

After the Automatic Speaker Setup function has been run, or the volume level of each individual speaker has been adjusted (pages 32 and 60), the maximum volume may be reduced.

When the levels of each speaker have been adjusted (page 60), the maximum possible vol- ume may be reduced.

When the Equalizer Settings (page 62) is set to Audyssey, the maximum possible volume is reduced by 6 dB.

Noise can be heard

Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power cords, speaker cables, and so on can degrade audio performance, so don’t use them.

An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try repositioning your cables.

The Late Night function doesn’t work

Make sure that the source is Dolby Digital or Dolby TrueHD (page 55).

About DTS signals

When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a malfunction.

When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the HTX-22HD remains in DTS listening mode and the DTS indicator remains

on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, as the HTX-22HD does not switch for- mats immediately, you may not hear anything, in which case you should stop your player for about 3 seconds, and then resume playback.

With some CD players, you won’t be able to playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the HTX-22HD. This is usually because the DTS bit- stream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the HTX-22HD doesn’t recognize it as a gen- uine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.

The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN can’t be heard

Since it takes longer to identify the format of an HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio signals, sound may not be output immediately.

Remote Controller

The remote controller doesn’t work

Make sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity (page 14).

Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the HTX-22HD and there’s no obstruction between the remote controller and the HTX-22HD’s remote control sensor

(page 14).

Can’t control other components

Make sure you’ve selected the correct remote controller mode.

To control an Onkyo DVD player or RI Dock

with iPod that’s connected with , remember to point the remote controller at the HTX-22HD and not at the DVD player or RI Dock.

Others

How do I change the language of a multiplex source?

On the Audio Adjust menu, change the Input Ch setting to Main or Sub (page 52).

The functions don’t work

To use , you must make an connection and an analog audio connection (RCA) between the component and HTX-22HD, even if they are connected digitally (page 26).
