On our last trip the Direct TV system worked perfectly. It even worked in-motion as the DW watched something in the bedroom as I drove. The day after we got home we went out to clean up the coach and I turned on the TV to listen to the news. I got a picture but no sound. I can switch to over the air and the sound works perfect. This is the same on all three TV's inside the coach. We are using the non high def in-motion receiver (the receiver is only about two years old). I tried turning off the receiver and even unplugged it......still no sound. Any ideas other than the receiver has gone bad?

Did you check to see if it was muted? our dtv receiver & remote has mute button on it. If not that- did you reboot it? somewhere there should be a button, probably under a cover of some sort.
hope this helps,

I'm afraid I'm an old time radio and TV guy so yes I checked the mute on the TV and the Direct TV receiver. I also tried rebooting twice. I assume the received is gone.

Did you check your inputs to the back of the TV? Do you have surround sound wired in that requires another button to be pushed? I'd just check all connections for tightness first. Also, to watch in the bedroom, was there something that had to be switched over?

Is the sound output on the DirecTV DVR / Receiver set to Dolby Digital - "On"? Try setting it to "Off."
Menu -> Settings -> Audio -> Dolby Digital - "Off"

I will try turning off the Dolby tonight.
I get no sound out of the TV's (any of them) but they all have picture. I also get no sound out of the surround system while on Direct TV. This non-high def receiver is hooked up only with coax.
