Hi guys,
I have a problem because of which I have been squeezing my brains (and looking everywhere for a while).
My home Movie Theater is a basic one (I believe).
Win10 mini PC --> HDMI --> Yamaha receiver --> HDMI ARC --> LG Flatscreen
Nothing fancy and it works perfectly with PLEX, VLC, Youtube... just anything including Dolby Digital, DTS, etc.
The problem is if I turn off my TV, the Win10 seems to go to sleep and stops sending the Adio/Video signal to the Receiver.
I don't seem to be able to solve this problem.
A bit of background (trying to answer all the questions I can think of beforehand).
My mediaplayer runs Win10 and has two HDMI outs. I already tried setting the register so that it does not sleep when the screen is turned off, with no results.
I have configured my receiver (Yamaha RX-V673) to use the amplifier for the audio signal and do not wait for the return signal from the TV (I hope this is working fine). I also turned off the HDMI control (So that when I turn off the TV, The receiver stays on).
There doesn't seem to be anything to do in the TV.
I think the problem relies on the Win10. The only possibility for Audio device is the LG TV, even though the Win10 is connected to the receiver, this does not appear as an audio device (I guess this is normal since the signal is being forwarded to the TV).
Well, I guess that even with HDMI control off, if I turn off the TV the Win10 will not have a recognised device to send the signal too.
My objective is to keep the Win10 mini PC on, playing music, when the screen is off.
I have run out of ideas.
Any help?
