Sony BDP-S1 Blu ray player

Just purchased a preowned Sony BDP S1 Blu ray player as a back up spare unit. It's about 7 years old but works flawlessly except for the digital audio out circuit. No matter what I do or what settings I select in the setup, it simply will not put out a signal. Anyone have any ideas what I'm missing here? My AVR is a Rotel RSX-1057. I did order a firmware upgrade DVD from Sony which should be here in about a week thinking maybe it's a compatibility problem with Dolby Digital, DTS, etc. But I really think the circuit is not on. I did have an online chat with a Sony tech but to no avail. Thanks.

Wait for the firmware update. I still use this player at times, and after updating, have no issues. Updates solve most issues IME.

If you go to Sonystyle, you can download the firmware update and burn your own copy. That's how I did mine. Click the online support tab, and work your way through it. It's still on there, I just checked.

I remember having an issue burning one the first time I tried also. I can't promise I can get it again either, but I'll try. If you shoot me your mailing address, I'll see if I can get one, and send it out to you. If not, I'm a Sony dealer, so, maybe I can get our rep to send me one. You can reach me at zydo1966 at yahoo dot com.
