Loss of freeview channels when Amp is switched on

[Updown]

hi all, I could do with a little advice if possible. I've just bought the Yamaha RX-V677 integrated amp from richer sounds, lovely piece of kit! Hooked up my speakers, Apple TV and Samsung TV. Issue I have is when I try to have the freeview channels on through the Yamaha, It knocks the freeview off and I get the weak no signal screen. As soon as I switch the Amp back off, all the freeview channels reappear? Any help would be hugely appreciated, thanks Alan

Hmmm can no one help a puzzled man out?

I presume you mean the freeview channels on your Samsung tv?

How have you connected your tv to the receiver?

What model is the tv?

a usb cable? Are you sure it's not an Hdmi?

So, is Apple TV connected to the Yamaha via HDMI cable, and another HDMI cable from Yamaha (out) to TV? Does your TV support ARC (Audio Return Channel)?
