HDMI Diagnostics and Troubleshooting
The objective of this guide is provide support for users experiencing HDMI connectivity issues. The HDMI DIAGNOSTICS function supports the following two methods. 1. Using the front panel buttons and front display of the AVR 2. Using the Web UI (*)
This manual is a guide for operation method 1. See the separate Denon Web UI Advanced Setup manual for operation method 2. z After updating the AVR to the firmware released in March 2023, the HDMI
DIAGNOSTICS function can be used from the Web UI.
1 The HDMI diagnostics feature is used to correct the following issues. 0 No picture from connected TV. 0 No audio from the AVR (Speaker). 0 Intermittent picture or artifact (video snow, dots on the top of the picture). 0 Intermittent audio or noise.
2 How to use. 0 If the issues mentioned in 1 occur, press the button on the front panel of the AVR to enter HDMI DIAGNOSTICS mode. 0 Use the buttons on the front panel or the included remote control to operate the HDMI DIAGNOSTICS function. 0 Follow the guidance displayed in the front display to resolve issues using Auto Test in HDMI DIAGNOSTICS. 0 Video Test and Audio Test in HDMI DIAGNOSTICS can be used to perform various tests manually according to the displayed error code.
3 What can be done with this feature? 0 Find issues with the AVR's hardware (Self diagnostics). 0 Diagnosis to determine if the cause of the problem is in the settings of external devices. 0 Find issues with HDMI cable capabilities and connection. 0 Restrict EDID or HDCP on the AVR to resolve issues caused by incompatibility with the AVR.

Description

1 Source Select The input source can be changed from this menu. (Source)

2 EDID Copy/ Preset (EIDID)

With this setting, faults can be resolved by removing complexities in the EDID. The EDID of the TV connected to the AVR can be copied, or a fixed preset of the EDID can be used.

0 Normally, the AVR reads the video and audio format of the connected monitor's EDID, processes the EDID based on the compatibility of the AVR and various settings, and provides the EDID to the connected source device.

This can be set for any input with HDMI assigned to it.

3 Max Resolution (MaxRes.)

Sets the video input/output resolution restrictions supported by the AVR.
Input sources not assigned to the HDMI are displayed as "Audio" sources.

4 HDCP

This limits the HDCP version of the AVR to HDCP ver. 1.4. This can be set for any input with HDMI assigned to it.

5 HDR

This limits (disables) the HDR (HDR10, Hybrid Log-Gamma HDR10+, Dynamic HDR) capability of the AVR. This can be set for any input with HDMI assigned to it.

Description

6 Deep Color (DeepC)

This limits (disables) Deep Color capability of the AVR. This can be set for any input with HDMI assigned to it.

7 Dolby Vision (DolbyV)

This limits the Dolby Vision capability information about the connected TV that is sent to the player by the AVR. This can be set for any input with HDMI assigned to it.

8 DTS:X*1

This limits (disables) DTS:X capability. This can be set for any input with HDMI assigned to it.

9 Dolby Atmos*1 This limits (disables) Dolby Atmos capability.

(Atmos)

This can be set for any input with HDMI assigned to it.

This limits the audio input capability to PCM 2ch only.

Max Resolution
Max Resolution has 6 selectable items.

No Limit

No limit. The AVR works up to 8K(40Gbps).

4K18Gbps (Default):

This sets EDID information and max resolution of the video output from the AVR to up to 4K(18Gbps).

4K9Gbps:

This sets EDID information and max resolution of the video output from the AVR to up to 4K(9Gbps).

1080p:*

This sets EDID information and max resolution of the video output from the AVR to up to 1080p (60/50).

720p:

This sets EDID information and max resolution of the video output from the AVR to up to 720p, 1080i or 1080p 24. When 720p is set, the resolution may be 1080i for some playback devices or content.

480p:

This sets EDID information and max resolution of the video output from the AVR to up to 480p or 576p.

z "1080p" is the default setting for audio input sources such as Tuner, Phono and HEOS Music. "No Limit", 4K18Gbps and 4K9Gbps cannot be set for these sources.

Procedure (Max Resolution)
When the TV doesn't play a video's content (4K18Gbps), there are two approaches to this issue. 1. To change to a new HDMI cable. 2. To set the limit mode (Max Resolution). As a result, the player outputs a lower
resolution.

Tips for Limit Mode Setup
The restriction modes may solve the issue when used in the following cases. Use them according to the issue that is occurring.
2 EDID Copy/Preset
0 The video may not be output correctly if the AVR's EDID is different to that of the television, or if the EDID is changed based on the AVR's compatibility or various settings.
It may be possible to output the video correctly by copying the EDID of the connected television or providing the specified EDID preset to the source device.

3 Max Resolution
0 When your TV supports 8K (or 4K18Gbps) and the video's output is 8K (or 4K18Gbps) from the AVR, and if the HDMI Input/output cable can not support 8K (or 4K18Gbps), it may cause some issues (e.g. no Video output, no Audio, Video noise, or Video Blinking)
0 When the AVR connects to a HDMI 2.0 compatible TV and a specific HDMI 2.0 incompatible player, there are some cases that the player works in DVI mode, the audio will not work and the video will be in RGB format.
0 When a TV's EDID method are not standard or correct, a video will not be displayed.
There is a possibility that a video's output can properly be fixed by limiting the max video input/output resolution of the AVR.

Log & EDID

Troubleshooting

4 HDCP
0 When an HDCP1.4 compatible TV and HDCP2.2 or 2.3 compatible player are connected through the AVR, and Stream Type1 (HDCP 2.2 or 2.3 protected) content is attempted to be played, the AVR does not play the video and shows a caution popup. (This is correct behavior based on HDCP)
0 When HDCP1.4 compatible TV and HDCP2.2 or 2.3 compatible player are connected through the AVR, and HDCP 1.4 content is played, there are some cases in which a player outputs HDCP 2.2/2.3 contents to the AVR.
By limiting the HDCP version of the AVR to ver. 1.4, there is a possibility that the player works with HDCP 1.4 and outputs video at a limited resolution.
5 HDR
0 There are some cases in which a video's color is incorrect when connecting an HDR (HDR10, HDR10+, Hybrid Log-Gamma, Dynamic HDR) compatible projector or TV, and HDR content is played.
There is a possibility that the video's color can be corrected by limiting the HDR capability of the AVR.
6 Deep Color
0 When connecting a deep color compatible TV and a player through the AVR, some HDMI cables may have performance limitations that could cause an issue (e.g. no Video output, no Audio, noise or Video Blinking)
There is a possibility that video and audio can be output properly by limiting (disabling) the deep color capability of AVR.

7 Dolby Vision
0 There are some cases in which a video's color is incorrect when connecting an Dolby Vision compatible projector, and Dolby Vision content is played.
There is a possibility that the video's color can be corrected if the AVR doesn't send the connected projector's Dolby Vision capability information.
8 DTS:X
0 When a DTS:X compatible AVR connects to a specific older DTS:X incompatible player, and it plays DTS-HD, there are some cases in which a player plays DTS Surround, not DTS-HD.
There is a possibility that the player will play DTS-HD correctly by limiting the DTS:X capability of AVR.
9 Dolby Atmos
0 When a Dolby Atmos compatible AVR connects to a specific older Dolby Atmos incompatible player, and it plays Dolby TrueHD, there are some cases in which a player plays Dolby Digital, not Dolby TrueHD.
There is a possibility that the player will play Dolby TrueHD correctly by limiting Dolby Atmos capability of the AVR.
10 PCM 2ch only
0 When the AVR connects to a specific source device, audio format or channel switching (e.g. Dolby Digital ->PCM, 2ch -> 5ch), or information from a source device is not correct, there are some cases in which the sound from the AVR drops out or becomes noise.
There is a possibility that audio output can properly be fixed by limiting the audio input of the AVR to PCM 2ch.
