I tried this on my RX A 2010 and it worked! Step 1: Plug a ethernet-cable into backside of your Yamaha receiver. Step 2: Follow the steps in the video. Easy. Done! (Thank you cable guy!)
Big thanks. Very simple and straightforward thanks to you. Now I have Atmos and DTS:X and herpes. Ok, I had herpes coming in, but big thanks! Update: I spoke to soon. Firmware updated, but I dont see atmos or DTS:X. Yamaha Advatage 740
Great Video! - Updated my RX-V775 and also downloaded the iPhone App from Yamaha to control the Receiver. - Works Great! I was using the Receiver as a hub for all of my devices with their various HDMI connections tho the Receiver. I then had the HDMI Out going to my 73inch Mitsubishi TV, which I was able to select fro viewing by using the "Input" button to switch between the Receiver or the TV antenna. After the update, the TV will no longer switch to the Receiver and wants me to plug the HDMI devices into the TV instead. Any ideas on what was updated that would change this ability?
Hi I have an question: I did everything you did with the update but while updating it says S2-1: Verifying with the for stars on-top but at that point it is just stuck and doesn't go farther could please help? With kind regards Joshua
Hi, I have model HTR-4071 , in stereo the music plays without bass. I can't set it up. But in a movie where the effects are a blast, for example, it already has bass. Only when I play music so no bass. Don't know what to do?
I have aventage rx 840 updated to firmware 1.77 update said successful but so far after update nothing works the app doesn't work anymore and reciever can no longer be found by any devices via wifi anyone else having this problem
I have updated through Network and got a "Update Success" message. After powering it Off Standby Light went of Off as well and the unit is dead now, not responding to any buttons and is not power on as well. Any suggesstions?
seems like every year i have this issue and i have sent my unit to Yamaha and they replaced the HDMI card and it worked for a year and than back to no sound again???
I kept my yamaha natural sound av receiver RX-V2079 in its box for 3 years because we didn’t need it and it kelps saying version error I try to fix it like you said but it says not found please help
Thank you. Great video. I have an RX-A830. Just bought pre-owned. 2 concerns. 1) 'Version Error' each time I power up the receiver. 2) When I raise up the volume, the Max Volume number goes up only 'from -15.5 to Volume Max.' My speakers are not loud enough. Even though I reached the Maximum Volume already. The 'Trim' volumes are already on Max. On 'Volume Max' screen, it says -15db... Help please.
Thanks for the video. I have a question, hopefully you can answer. For some odd reason I can't AirPlay music from any of my devices. Restarted all my devices including the router. Any suggestions. Doing an update as I type this. Maybe that solves my issue.
William & Carolina: I had the same issue until today: I have downloaded Yamaha app, selected Spotify as input, and in Spotify app I found the option to connect to my RX-V775. Still not able to connect using the music main app on the iPhone, but I can see connectivity is not the issue. I am also able to connect from the laptop iTunes app.
My firmware update went just as shown here and after about 8 minutes it was finished but instead of update complete I have "Error 100" on my screen and I can not find any information from Yamaha or anyone as to what that means. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Hello... I just did a firmware update on my Yamaha TSR 6750 at the end I got an Error Code 0040. Any suggestions? Thks enjoyed and learn from your video!
I know this video is 5 years old, I'm having issue with NFL Game Pass (again) have tried just about everything anyway thought to try updating Receiver which I haven't done for a few years. Anyway followed these instructions and receiver went through the process and guess what receiver says it's up to date. Appears to me they don't have updates for my receiver anymore... RX-V675 I can't find what "version" it's on either where do you find it? EDIT: found it Firmware version 1.93...but still NO NFL Game Pass :(
Hi, the update worked fine on my RX A 660 but since then I have no video output. the HDMI cable is plugged in, I just tested it on a computer and it is not faulty nor is the TV. I have a red "HDMI" on the AVR screen when I select an HDMI input (maybe this is normal but I don't remember). I mean no output at all. No output of my inputs and also no display of AVR options, music relevant info, etc. I'm a bit annoyed...
My device seems to be stuck on verifying... how long before it starts the update if there is one? I’m sorting this out on my own at the minute . Thanks for any help
I tried updating my Yamaha ex v385 receiver like you showed and it’s stuck on update . . . USB. I pressed the straight button to advance it to update network and it doesn’t advance. Help? Thanks

Make sure your receiver is online. If it won’t connect, or if it is connected and still giving you an issue, download the firmware from the website, save it in the root file of a usb drive, connect it to the front of the receiver, and choose UPDATE USB at the beginning of the process
plz help... your video helped with update. But I've spent hours! on trying to get smarthub from tv to play audio on receiver! it did for a month, then now nothing?? read manual, youtube called, help! HDMI Yamaha 679, av4 (arc)
Hi, I have a Yamaha RX-V377 receiver which can only be updated using the USB port. However, despite my efforts, I didn't figure out from where I can download its firmware. Could you please provide some help? Thanks!
