....And why doesn't it see the receiver since it's first inline?

The Yamaha passes through the monitor connection to the

Mini and that is why you get the monitor and not the receiver

as the device. The Yamaha receiver is basically just performing

the function of an HDMI switch and just taps the HDMI audio

signals.


I have a 2010 Mini->Yamaha RX-v467->Samsung 42" LED.

Had a 32" Samsung before with the same results.


If it in fact saying it is an LG instead of Samsung, then there is

another issue. Suggest the following:

1. Shut all down.

2. Power up TV and wait for the on screen display of searching

for signal (or no signal).

3. Power up the Yamaha Rx. Wait a few seconds.

4. Boot the Mini performing a PRAM reset.

See -> http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11243

This process will force the Mini to reload all device based

parameters. The sequence of this is very important.
