Troubleshooting—Continued

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 39).

There’s no sound with a certain signal for- mat

•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 Blu-ray/DVD player/recorder’s remote controller.

The volume cannot be set to 79

•Check to see if a maximum volume has been set (page 43).

•When the levels of each speaker have been adjusted (page 40), the maximum possible volume may be reduced.

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 interfer- ence. Try repositioning your cables.

The Late Night function doesn’t work

•Make sure that the source is Dolby Digital or Dolby TrueHD (page 36).

About DTS signals

•When playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse func- tion on your player may produce a short audi- ble noise. This is not a malfunction.

•When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the HTX-22HDX 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-22HDX does not switch formats imme- diately, 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-22HDX. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., out- put level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the HTX-22HDX doesn’t recog- nize it as a genuine 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 imme- diately.

Remote Controller

The remote controller doesn’t work

•Make sure that the batteries are installed with the correct polarity (page 12).

•Make sure that the remote controller is not too far away from the HTX-22HDX and there’s no obstruction between the remote controller and the HTX-22HDX’s remote control sensor (page 12).

Can’t control other components

•To control an Onkyo RI-capable component or RI Dock with iPod that’s connected with , remember to point the remote controller at the HTX-22HDX, not the other device.

Others

How do I change the language of a multiplex source?

•On the Audio Adjust menu, change the Input (Mux) setting to Main or Sub (page 40).

The functions don’t work

•To use , you must make an connection and an analog audio connection (RCA) between the component and HTX-22HDX, even if they are connected digitally (page 23).
