HELP WITH MY OPPO


I thought I knew enough that setting up the Oppo 205 I just purchased would be a breeze. Anything but for me!!
I will be using the Oppo for SACD's cd's, Dish network and movies. I am using the 7.1 inputs so i can take advantage of the DAC's in the Oppo. I am trying to mate it with my Marantz AV8802A and it will not pass video thru the Marantz via the HDMI Main Out. If I go from the Oppo directly to my TV it works fine. But I can seem to integrate it in the Marantz. Ive contacted Oppo and they have contacted me but still no answers. By the way their customer service in response time has been great. I'd like to use my Marantz as I did prior to the OPPO, for switching sources. The picture and sound quality is superb. thanks in advance
i also posted this on another forum within Audiogon.

Hi don_1,

     Congrats on the new Oppo 205.   I have the 105 and know Oppo's customer service and support are very good.
     I'm just a bit confused, why you want to pass video to the Marantz?

Thanks,
  Tim.
Hi Don,

     Sorry, I don't have specific answers for your questions. 
     However, I know there are forums specifically focused on the Oppo 205 both at AVS and Home Theater Forum that you might want to read.  Here's a link to a Home Theater Forum forum from a poster that is asking about connecting an Oppo 205 with a Marantz AV8802A for both audio and video:

Hope you can find some answers there,
