Receiver not "picking up"/syncing HDMI Acoustic Reference Signal to play fully

[striderkent]

I'm guessing others have had this issue, but can't find a solution or mention of it anywhere.

When I run a test sweep with an acoustic reference signal no matter what I set the delay of the sweep to the acoustic reference signal is cut off.

I'm using a Dell laptop HDMI output to an Outlaw 976 processor.

From what I can tell the Outlaw is not getting HDMI sync until the acoustic reference sound starts.
I know the Outlaw 976 has a 1/2 second "soft sync" which is causing this however...seems like there should be a setting somewhere in REW that would send enough signal that the receiver would sync for a second, then play the acoustic timing reference completely.

Any ideas or help are appreciated!

Thanks!

Have you selected "Play dither before sweep" in the Measure dialog Options?

I believe I did, but I will double-check!

Thanks!
