Sync between telly and DVD player

[Archaepon]

Hi all, I have a KDL-42W829B telly and a BDP-5200 dvd player. They will not sync so that when then player is turned on it does not auto select the HDMI input. I have to select this manually. I have tried the auto detect menu and this says 'No devices found'. It seems retrograde to have to do this as scart sockets auto selected the input. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi Archaepon, I do not know the Humax but probably you have a setting that disable HDMI CEC on it so you can leave it attached without interferring with Bravia sync...

I'm too disappointed that Sony do not make PVR anymore (I still have an RDR HXD870 that works like a charm after 8 years), but it seems there is no market in Europe for such kind of devices (In japan they make BD recorder...)
