Please post your results in that forum in hopes that it will help ONKYO to create a solution to this Pass-through situation on all receivers.

Hope it works, is no means a fix.. but you will not have to reset or unplug your units.

Thanks, FlyByNgt

I Have just added video's of how my TX-NR616 will pass-through after a about 4 to 6 minuts. Total videos so far uploaded 6. Check them out to see if your unit does the same. Please post your replies n that topic so Onkyo can maybe compile more info. Hope it helps in some way.

Spoke to a helpful Onkyo tech this weekend (Shederick), and was able to resolve my audio issue.

As mentioned in my earlier post, my issue was related to my TV audio going into the receiver via an optical cable and after long standby, was not "waking up" until after I unplugged and then replugged in the unit.

The fix was to go into the settings, and then configure input. There was an Audio selector option (I am not in front of the unit right now so do not have specifics) that I went into and switched it from HDMI to optical. This seemed to have fixed my issue. I wish there was an "auto-detect", but unfortunately there is not. But it worked!
