[QUOTE="schloss, post: 1020157, member: 143285"] Hello, my Dr HDMI device came through the post today.....connected it up and prayed to the gods. I cannot get it to work.....and was hoping someone on here could help, otherwise thats £60 gone (bloody expensive). I have a HTPC, windows 7, Intel HD3000, i32105. That is an INPUT to the receiver, an Onkyo TSXR 308. That is then output to the display, a TV, LG 47LH3000 My main problem was this: I set windows to turn off the monitor after say...5 minutes. If I had music playing on say, itunes, after 5 minutes it would turn off the TV, but also stop sending a signal to the receiver, and therefore, i'd stop hearing music. I'd see 'NO SIGNAL' on the TV, and also 'NO SIGNAL' on the receiver. I want the receiver to carry on playing audio, even if windows has stopped sending a signal to the TV. So i did some research, figured it was a handshake issue, bought this DR HDMI device - because apparently its supposed to keep the 'signal alive' or something. Got it today, followed these instructions: [url]http://www.vidabox.com/wiki/index.php?title=Doctor_HDMI_-_Complete_Instructions[/url] Yes its all plugged in properly, yes the power is on, bla bla. Its just not doing anything at all. Does anyone have any idea what I'm supposed to do. I got 7 days to figure it out before I send it back for a refund.... Its as if the TV is dictating the control of the signal. Windows stops sending signal to TV, as it should. ANd then just because TV signal is off, windows is like 'well i dont need to send audio signal either', and stops sending anything to the receiver. So annoying! [/QUOTE]
