Yamaha RX-V4A: restore a skipped input to INPUT cycling
Yamaha RX-V4A: restore a skipped input to INPUT cycling. Check prerequisites and the actual response before reporting an outcome.
Manufacturer-documented Reviewed 2026-11-09 · Revision 1
Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
A supported physical input is missing while cycling normal inputs.
Connection scope: Device controls / power only. Symptom: An option or codec is missing.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at step-0. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
step-0
Is this an input actually supported by this exact receiver?
A missing hardware/service feature cannot be created with Input Skip.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Unknown stops safely.
- If Yes / check completed → Inspect Function > Input Setting > Input Skip for that input
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-1
Inspect Function > Input Setting > Input Skip for that input
Observe its current value without changing other sources.
Look for: Perform only the stated operation, then confirm whether it could be completed.
- If Yes / check completed → Is it On, and do you want that input included?
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-2
Is it On, and do you want that input included?
An intentional skipped source can remain skipped.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Unknown stops safely.
- If Yes / check completed → Set that input skip value to Off
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-3
Set that input skip value to Off
Check ordinary INPUT cycling for its return. This is visibility, not connector assignment or an audio-format fix.
Look for: Perform only the stated operation, then confirm whether it could be completed.
- If Yes / check completed → Checks completed — report what happened
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

Possible result
Checks completed — report what happened
Completion is not an automatic solved result. Report solved, partly helped, did not help or could not follow based on your actual observation. No Audio Review physical test is claimed.
steps completed
Reaching this result does not mean the issue is solved. Only your own feedback can report improvement.
Possible result
Keep these observations for official support
A required prerequisite or response was not confirmed. Stop this sequence and use the exact model and partner documentation. Do not escalate to a factory reset, firmware installation, internal repair or unsafe wiring change.
next support
Reaching this result does not mean the issue is solved. Only your own feedback can report improvement.
Possible result
A required fact is unknown
Confirm the exact model, connection, partner capability and current control state before continuing. Do not guess settings or operate an updating product.
insufficient data
Reaching this result does not mean the issue is solved. Only your own feedback can report improvement.
