When I switch on my system, there's all sorts of intermittent blue screens b/w Oppo or Motorola units off and and fully on / software loaded status. If the timing of the turn on sequence isn't just right, I have no audio and have to start the sequence over or occasionally i'll get a digital video hash and have to restart.
It's really frustrating and I really don't want to go back to component video if I don't have to. My Anthem, Oppo, and Motorola software is current and I have everything protected with Equitech and Richard Gray.
Help?

Have you tried turning on things in different sequence? How about the source components with another pre/pro to see if there is the same issue?

Hey, first of all, thanks for responding! It's great to have a way to connect with fellow AV Inmates.
I have found that the results are variable if the peripherals are turned on first. Often the PrePro will drop the audio or it will go into this weird text screen showing all the system parameters that I can't clear until I turn off the Anthem.
The most reliable way is to turn the Anthem on first. Wait about 10 seconds, then turn on the peripheral. Occasionallly this doesn't work and I have to cycle the peripheral or the whole system.
I don't have another PrePro so I can't try it with a different processor. So I wonder, is HDMI normally this glitchy or do I have some sort of problem with my Anthem? Has anyone else experienced these problems???
I guess from this the Anthem D2 is about 3 years old?

Perhaps it has HDMI version 1.2? Not sure. I remember reading in around that time or a bit before about people complaining more (or at least it seemed that way to me) about handshakes.
I didn't get an HDMI processor until a bit under a year ago (bought a used one with HDMI 1.3 which I use in the main system with a modded Oppo BDP-83 - have a BDP-93 is the secondary bedroom system on the other side of the wall to the main system and did briefly try it with no issue - the systems are somewhat interconnected with the HDMI outs to each main and bedroom going to each other although I have not done much with it - I tried the BDP-93 before I stuck it in the bedroom).
I'm pretty sure you are correct. It is HDMI v1.2x. 1.3 was not an option. So handshake issues are a known problem w/ 1.2x? This may explain a lot.
