Help connecting Smart Tv w/ AVR (1 Viewer)

[Eric Calabrese]

Hello folks,

I am not a newbie but this is not necessarily my thing. I have a Vizio Smart TV D39h-D0 connected to an Onkyo HT-R560 with Verizon Fios. The problem I am having is that I can obtain picture & audio to the tv via the AVR but I cannot get audio via the Smart Tv (youtube is what I want to watch but cannot get sound to transfer to the surround sound.)

Connections right now are:
Coax to Fios Box
Fios Box to AVR via HDMI & AV Cable (Red&White)
AVR to Smart Tv via HDMI

How do I get sound from Youtube to the Surround sound?

Thanks for any help,
Eric

From what I can find, both the TV and receiver support ARC. If you have the HDMI cable connected to the jack near the TV’s component video inputs, move to the other one (the vertical connection strip). Follow the directions on both manuals to enable ARC.
