I posted here in the past about Deep Colour settings on a TV disabling audio from a HDR Fox T2. In a slightly different setup to the one referred to then, I have another TV in another room that had long been connected to a Denon AVR. The Humax was connected via the AVR using HDMI and all worked well. That AVR gave up its digital ghost last week and I replaced it with a newer model (Denon X 2800H) yesterday. There was then video but no sound from the Humax. Spent some time trying many combinations of settings but no change. The TV is an older one without any Deep Colour options. Contacted Denon Support who were very helpful. I was basically told that they don't concern themselves too much about compatibility with older legacy devices (Understandable. I'm already wondering which will go first - the Humax or me). They suggested adding an optical cable between the Humax and AVR. I did. It worked. It was necessary to assign the optical connection to the Humax Device - done in Denon AVR settings. The issue may apply more broadly across newer AVRs.
This probably won't be of much interest to most, but posting it here will reward some future searches.
