Bravia KDL42W805A arc hdmi
I have my bluray &sky & xbox connected to my pioneer av receiver through hdmi and my tv is connected via arc port 2 to the av receiverd tv out.
The audio control works as it should, i.e turning the volume up on either the amp or tv remote shows audio system increasing, however i cannot for the hell of me get the power to trigger on the amp by turning on the tv, nor does the tv turn on should i turn on the amp.
The arc settings are on both devices.... What could be the cause.
Thanks in advance.
Regards

Hi there
On your TV ( http://pdf.crse.com/manuals/13MW802111/EN/brsyncset_europe_co.html ) :
- Ensure that you have "Bravia Sync Control" Set to on
- Ensure that you have enabled "Auto TV ON" in the settings as well
On you AMP
- Ensure that all CEC functions are enabled.
Also, Ensure that you have a HDMI cable connected from the TV's ARC port (HDMI 1) to the AMP. I do not understand where ARC port 2 comes into play unfortuantely. Ensure that you AMP supports ARC as well.
Cheers

The tv sees the amp under the bravia sync list it gives a device input and type but it does not say connected although it is as the speakers are working are as the audio controls. :0( any other ideas please?
Just out of interest could it just be possible that the handshake between the two devices is what the issue is?
The amp is a pioneer htp-072

To be honest, there are many inconsistancies in the CEC compatiblity and operability between different manufacturers. And it could be just that. I have had a look at the Pioneer manual...And I read a lot of disclaimers about CEC not being guarranteed etc etc.
I am also out of idea's too. Except one....A programmable universal remote control - such as the Harmony range.
You might just have to live with the fact that you have to turn both devices on.

Could it be a dodgy cable it is new.... Or would arc just not work at all... Looking in depth i think its pin 13 which is the cec bit!
Thing is the av receiver is in the cupboard. Thats why it would be convenient.
Ive only had it a week purchased from richer sounds.. That aside i could give it to my dads and buy a sony for myself.

pretty confident that its not a dodgy cable - considering that audio volume works.

Not quite. "Bravia Sync" is the term that Sony use instead of the general terminology called "CEC" or "Consumer Electronics Control". However it is not a perfect system between different manufacturers, who seem to have deviated slightly.
I have another branded Network Media Player. This works brilliantly with CEC fuctions switched ON, and Bravia Sync to the TV. The only thing I cant do - is switch it ON using using Bravia Sync, all other commands work.
