Hey
I have had a RX-3050 since 2017 and a few months ago I started getting the Decoder off sign on the front, but the audio would come on after 30 seconds.
But 2 - 3 weeks later its now taking up to 5 minutes for the audio to kick in.

I have tried changing the HDMI cables and changing how the amp turns on via the Harmony remote, but the problem remains.

Can you think of anything that may need to be repaired in the amp which would cause something like this?

I spent so much money on this, so dont really want to buy another one, but if I have to then I have to.

Any ideas?

Not sure if you have sorted this but it sounds like the common heat related issue on the dip chip. As it gets warmer the connection works and sound kicks in. Should be under warranty? If not some people have had luck with reflowing/resoldering the chip (all done at you own risk)
