Issue with Apple TV 4K and Yamaha TSR-7810 using 4K HDR 60 Hz

First, let me give explain my setup.


Source: Apple TV 4K

Reciever: Yamaha TSR 7810

TV: Sony XBR65X900E

Cables: 48Gbps Belkin Ultra High Speed HDMI


Apple TV is connected to Receiver's HDMI input 1

Reciever's HDMI Output 1 is connected to TV's HDMI 3 input


My problem is as follows: I am unable to see 4K HDR 60Hz video from the Apple TV to my TV through the Receiver.


4K HDR 60Hz 4:4:4 works just fine when the Apple TV is connected directly to the TV. Using both 18Gbps and the new Belkin 48Gbps cables I just picked up from apple.


Both the Receiver and Apple TV have been updated to their latest Firmware and tvOS


The Receiver is in Mode: 1 and using "Processing -> Through" in the video settings as these are two things I have read to check while researching this issue.


I would love any help I can get with resolving this issue.

Apple TV 4K, tvOS 11.4, null

Debugging HDR on Apple TV


Please note that 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 is supported by HDMI 2.0 for 8 bpc. For HDR content (10 bpc), HDMI 2.0 is limited for 4K 60Hz to 4:2:2, or for 4K 50Hz to 4:4:4. No device or cable can change that; it’s the ports and the specification to which they are made. There is no retail HDMI equipment with higher specs yet.

Also note that ALL streaming video is encoded 4:2:0, so there is no need to force 4:4:4 with streaming video.


Have your Apple TV set to Match Dynamic Range and Match Frame Rate.
