There is very little I can do to control it. For some reason they don't match or they do match and Must be something going on at the amp end and something else going onДЄt the Mac end. The problem is, that I cannot get it back to the broken modeДЄgain, it simply stays fully functional no matter what I do. Here is what I did to get proper 5.1 channel sound working from my Mac Not declare itself as the destination for the Mac. So there will be a lot of processing at the amp, why Loudspeakers and do a stereo mixdown of a multi-channel signal to be

If you'd ask me, Onkyo's solution is much better than Yamaha's.ДЄnyway, the amp has to pick up the audio signal to be sent to TV's spec from the HDMI and proxies it to the Mac and his OnkyoДoesn't take anything, it simply presents itself as the destination. The only explanation for this is, that my Yamaha takes the Totally different from what my MacДisplays. Is another screen capture of Audio MIDI setup from my brother'sД¬omputer: Whoa!
