[QUOTE="Chluz, post: 739566, member: 112690"] I Didn't find the following clearly posted anywhere; sorry if its a repeat of something previously written ! I managed to get mine working using a HD 6450 graphics card connected by HDMI to yamaha RX-V667 and then to samsung C5100. What I noticed after reading a couple of pages of this thread is that there are actually two problems that people are seeing. The type of problem you get depends on how the amplifier (in my case the yamaha) manages how the signal goes from the htpc to the TV (I think). - First case : the HTPC does not detect any devices as soon as the TV or amplifier are turned off. The resolution is then changed to the default VGA resolution. This can be corrected through the VNC solution from page 13. - Second case, and this is what was happening to me : the HTPC still detects the devices even when the TV and HDMI are turned off. Only when the TV is turned back on does the HTPC change its resolution first to low res, and then back up to the set TV resolution,; This is what was happening to me. When I tried do apply the VNC trick from case 1, the resolutions were not changing on my htpc. Then I read some more of this forum, and someone suggested disconnecting the cables. So I went to the back of the HTPC as it was still on with amp and tv off, and whilst connected remotly through VNC, disconnected the HDMI cable, and the resolution changed to low res ! . From there, I could finish the VNC trick by going to ati catalyst and forcing a full HD res. Since then, I have been able to turn my TV on and off, and my amp on and off and to different input as well with the timeshift on, and nothing crashed or resized. I hope this helps those who are still having problems. Now I need to stop playing with my HTPC, and start revising Conformal transformation methods for solving Complex PDEs. Wish me good luck !
