I tried to setup follow this topic but i have problem. I can not change Playback form LPCM to HDMI.
I tried to factory reset and reinstall firmware (1.1.7) but it's not help.

Updated.
I tried to set them with wireless mouse but it can't click anyway
and I forgot to use remote control of H8.
Now it can set them by remote control. Thx.
