WOO-HOO!!!

Got it all working! I had no idea that I had to set anything in the DVD
player for digital out, I assumed that simply plugging it in would do the
job. So I switched it, and voila -- everything is working just the way I
want! The speaker B thing I figured out, and the Zone 2 thing -- Yamaha
tells me that it's always on, just to let you know that it can handle it, if
need be.

So what do I do? I whip on the Matrix, then Gladiator, then Peter Gabriel's
Play, notice that the sound coming out of every speaker is completely
perfect, and then do my dance of joy. Ahhh . . . life is good. And I am
happy. Thanks for your help, Grrt, ol' buddy, ol' pal. (forgive me -- I'm
still kinda giddy!)

cheers,
vij

PS: Wheee!
