On Wed I had my system all set to go. Everything was working fine.
Then last night I made some setting changes on my TV to the bass and treble. Then today, no ARC from TV to Yamaha.
Looked at all my settings on TV and Yamaha - didn't see any issues.
Pulled out my hair until I stumbled onto the SIMPLINK on the TV remote. Putzed with that and viola' - got it to work again. SIMPLINK set to on and TV speakers set to HT Speaker. I don't remember turning this on or off to begin with, or last night but anyway, now when I turn on the Yamaha, it provides the tv sound thru my AV speakers and when Yamaha is off, TV speakers turn back on. Except when I power down everything and start it back up.  I have to go into Simplink again and turn speakers to HT.  Shouldn't this work automatically?
Is this how it's supposed to work?
