I am trying hard to tackle a what seemed to be simple problem if wiring my setup together. The setup:

Mac Mini (2011) with HDMI Output
Pioneer 921 K AV Receiver
Acer HD Projector (HDMI)

When I hook up my Mac Mini directly to the Projector with a 30 foot (10 meter) HDMI Cable everything is just fine. The picture is sharp and the colors brilliant.

However, when I send HDMI to the receiver (into the BD HDMI Input) then I get absolutely no HDMI output to the projector, it keeps saying "no signal".

Is there perhaps some magic combination of setup buttons that may help me resolve this problem?
