Weee!

Fun with AV components today. We are trying to get the TV watching in the living room easier to use. Total first world problem.

60 inch TV hooked to our AV surround sound amplifier, using a TIVO DVR system for most things. However, we have an Apple TV, and a Chromecast, and a Blue Ray player as other inputs. We almost never use the Blue Ray, but it is there so might as well keep it as an option.

That means there is a remote for the TIVO, the Amp, and the Apple TV and of course the Chromecast. We had a problem with the Cox Cable feed for a week, and they admitted they had a Node issue and it took them a week to get that fixed. So we used the Chromecast to watch TV. We both have Apple iPhones and my wife loves her iPad so an Apple TV is nice.

We had set them up as they were purchased and the Chromecast was plugged into the TV, and it just takes over the TV functions, and did not play through the surround sound system.

So now everything is going through the amp, and hopefully less confusing for us, and any guests.
