I have just bought a Pioneer VSA-E07 receiver off eBay to go with my DVL-909. The receiver did not come with the touchscreen remote, but I have a Logitech Harmony which handles the day to day operations.
One problem I have noticed is that I cannot seem to get the receiver to handle AC3-RF. The LD player is hooked up to the DVD/LD input using s-video, RCA for analog audio, RCA for digital audio and RCA for the RF. The receiver happily switches between the analog and the digital outputs, but it is only showing Dolby Prologic on the FL display. The LD player is displaying Dolby Digital.
The DVL is at factory settings, so according to the manual it should be outputting AC3-RF by default. I did look at the receiver manual, and I can see there is a setup process where you can assign the digital inputs- obviously I cant do this, lacking the remote. I did test switching through the other inputs to see if AC3 would light up, in case it was assigned elsewhere- but none did.
Is there anything that I am missing or that I can try to get AC3 output, or am I out of luck unless I can get hold of a remote?

It looks like you set the configuration on the screen, then it sends a signal with the config to the AVR. Unfortunately, this doesn't look like it is possible with a Harmony.
I'll do some more checks in the morning in case I missed it being assigned to a different input. I'll also see if I can find a way to reset the config to default, as that logically should set it to the same input as the LD (though I could be wrong, and it leaves it set to nothing) Oh yes, that's right. You can manually assign the inputs or selectors etc. There is a way to set everything to default but i can't remember how to do that. You can also call Pioneer as it is an Elite unit, they will help even if out of date, or they did 5 years ago.
