Configuring xorg.conf for receiver - antagon - 2012-01-23

I'm setting up my first HTPC, an intel core I3 2100t based system using the onchip graphics. I've got most of my setup done using Alanwww1's great guide.
However, I got one major issue I'm trying to resolve, which is that I can't get video when I'm hooking up my HTPC over my receiver through HDMI. If I connect my TV directly it does work. From what I understand, this is most likely a timing issue and I should be able to resolve it using xorg.conf. My receiver is a Yamaha RX-V667, the TV a Panasonic TX-P42G10

I've currently got this xorg.conf, based on the one in the guide: http://paste.kde.org/191564/raw/

I've tested the 4 modes using xrandr and only the 24p one works. The other 3 modes give a black screen. I've checked my xorg.log to see if there were any differences between the timings. I've noticed one difference at the 60p mode, but changing that didn't seem to have any effects. As far as I can see, the other modelines are correct.

Here is my xorg.log: http://paste.kde.org/191570/raw/
In this log, HDMI1 is the PC directly hooked up to the TV (using dvi -> hdmi) and HDMI3 is the connection to the receiver.

Any help is much appreciated!
