Yamaha RX-V 379 "DECODER OFF"
« on: Oct 22, 2018 at 11:31 AM »
I have a 3 year old Yamaha RX-V379 AVR which recently would not play any audio (video is ok). The front display shows "decoder off" while playing movies or music via HDMI. I replaced the hdmi cable with a new one and used different sources but still no audio. I did a hard reset but still no changes. Anybody encountered this problem? I read from other forums about The same problem which I think is inherent to yamaha reveivers.

I have the same issue with my RX-A850, it was functioning well but wont output sound anymore when I tried to use it again just recently.

I tried it already, followed each step from their website but got an error 004400 at the end of the update. unit still powers on and output video but no audio. also tried feeding the unit with analog stereo signal but there's no sound also.

eto ang mismong AVR ko rin. madalas ako nakaka encounter ng ganito but pinipindot ko lang ulit ang HDMI port kung saan ko kinakabit ang TV. ARC ba gamit mo? yung tv mo TV dapat naka ARC din.

latag mo dito paano connection mo TV>AVR>PLayer etc,,,,,

sakin kasi TV arc HDMI > AVR Arc HDMI.. tapos yung mga external players ko nakakabit na deretso sa AVR..

Update:

Brought the unit sa distributor (super manufacturing) at Roosevelt Ave. Kailangan daw palitan ang digital board. Dyan pala nakaconnect lahat. Sinisingil ako P12500 for the board and 1500 for labor. Thats P14000...bili nalang ako ng bagong avr.

can you still use it with other sources like FM/AM or it's analog inputs?

Digital, analog and tuner inputs no audio output. Kasi lahat yan nasa isang board lang. Yan ang problema if something goes wrong sa board damay lahat.
