Is there an option on the Yamaha receiver?Most later avr has options to set video to passthrough in avr hdmi configuration section. video should be processed by htpc and hdtv. it seems that your htpc is not detecting your avr in your pic. for whatever reason it see your hdtv instead. when htpc is connected direct to avr using hdmi cable, it should see nvidia+yamaha instead of nvidia+hdtv. can you make sure that you selected the correct hdmi input for htpc in yamaha? with proper connections and configurations, you should see as shown below:
Here is a pic of control panel:
Thanks!
it might have issue with hdmi handshake too. you can try newer hdmi cable from htpc to avr.
