Other News/Updates:
The Audio/HT page has Change Info and Downloads of Firmware Update 1.81 for Yamaha RX-A1050/2050/3050, RX-V1079/2079/3079 A/V Receivers, firmware 1.82 for CX-A5100 pre-pro and Firmware 1.11 for 2016 A/V Receiver models RX-A1060/2060/3060 and RX-V1081/2081/3081. Post includes notes about improvements and fixes, including new DTS Modes in Advanced Setup. DTS Mode 2 fixes a problem with bitstreaming with some older Sony Blu-Ray players and changers. (Includes link to a previous article on that issue.)
There are also firmware updates posted July 28th for some earlier Yamaha Receiver models (Ax000, Ax010, Ax020, Ax030, Ax040, etc and perhaps others) that include Napster/Rhapsody updates required to continue using the service. Although you can use the receiver's network update, I prefer using the download updaters installed via USB flash drive. Update Download pages can be found by going to the Yamaha Support site for your country and searching by your receiver model number. (Here's the USA Yamaha support site downloads page.)
Updates for some models have other fixes included related to using the AV Controller iOS app, blu-ray audio dropout (x040) or network related fixes. (If anyone finds this update helps with the issue of HDMI video dropouts (every 7 seconds or so) with Macs some users had in the past, let me know. I could not replicate that problem.)
