Yamaha RXv4600 w/HDMI issues. GUI ?


Howdy. I have a Yammie pre/amp and I have just hooked it up to a Sony 52" 1080p & DirecTv HD and BluRay recorder using the HDMI's. NOW I am not able to enter the setup mode on the Yamaha with the HDMI's hooked up. I get a readout on the amp of "GUI" and the setup goes nowhere. Anyone with some insight on this? Please don't send me to AVSForums or Audiioholics. Been there and their sites will boggle a simple mind like mine. Any body know the answer to get out of the GUI and allow me work the setup? What is the GUI...?
Thanks is advance, John

The yamaha will not pass the gui through the hdmi out. You must hook up one of the other video outs to get it. A composite cable would be the easiest and it probably came with one.
I stand by my earlier statement and don't believe the gui can only be passed with component out. You should be able to have any video outs hooked up at the same time with no problem. Have you tried another video hook up?
