    RSP 1066 Wierd things happining.

    Hi

    Anybody out there had similair problems with RSP1066 please?

    Powered unit on last night and it had lost all my settings, I think it may have reverted back to factory settings. Had to reset everthing again.This is the first time it has done this.

    When I am watching a dolby digital broadcast on skyplus on optical one. If I change channels to a normal dolby broadcast the processor nearly always selects 2 channel pcm all by itself. I have to change it manually back to prologic2.

    Gratefull for any ideas.

    The preamps can lose settings due to a quick power spike or as some have found out a static discharge from your finger.

    As far as the Dolby issues, are you running the latest firmware? I believe one of the last one or two addressed this problem.

      Hi Kevin.

      Many thanks for your advice re problems with 1066.

      I have only had my processor a short time (bought it second hand) and have no idea how to check it for the latest software. Could you please tell me how to do this and what the latest software should be. I think that that may be the solution to the problem though.The cable to download from the computer was included in the box.

      Thank a lot

        Hold the mute button down on the remote for a few seconds or so and the software version should display on the front input of the RSP-1066 or on the monitor if on. If you have the second gen RSP-1066 the latest software version I think is 2.6 You should check out the Rotel web page for confirmation and instructions on upgrading.

          Some Good News From Dolby
          by Aussie Geoff
          Hi,

          Imagine uncompressed surround sound……

          For those that haven't seen it, my friend and HTgude member Matt Stacey pointed out the information in this LINK FROM DOLBY to me.

          If you ignore the continuing HD-DVD / Bu-Ray madness, it is a win on several fronts.

          RSP 1066 Static Noise in Dolby PL II
          by Michael G
          Greetings all,

          Has anyone had a problem with very noticeable static or crackling type noise when using Dolby PL II or any of the other surround modes? It does not happen in Dolby Digital mode or even 2ch stereo mode. It only seems to be ProLogic II or any of the music surround modes....

          New 9.1 channel Dolby Pro Logic IIz
          by Chris D
          From a news release I just saw of the first receiver, (Onkyo) with the new Dolby Pro Logic IIz technology that extracts to 9.1 channels. I chased down this technology report on the Dolby website. Very interesting.
          I'm surprised that I hadn't heard of this before! My thoughts in another post...
