BustedDreams asked:

Bought a Sony STR-DG820. I’ve asked question on how to fix some issues and have basically been given the answer that I should only use the receiver for sound, never the TV.

I’ve been trying this for a week. It has added another major problem with the receiver. The difference in volume from program to program, program to commercial, channel to channel, or input to input is amazingly drastic. LIterally, the family went scrambling when one show on DVR ended and the channel switched back a Digital Radio Station. OMG, it was loud! Ironically, my TV does a great job of managing the level of sound.

I’ve read about Dolby Volume, but it sounds like that is only available on high end units. I want something in the mid-level range OR a unit that can output Dolby Digital sound through the speakers and to the TV at the same time when connected via HDMI only.
