OS 10.4 - Video settings get lost

Hello Everybody,

I am new to MAC, more a PC kind of guy. But start to lovin it ...

I bought a Mac Mini and use it as Media Center in my living room. It is connected trough DVI and Optical to an Onkyo AV Receiver. (875).

Now the problem : when I switch off the AV Reciever, the MAc Mini loses it´s Video Connection (obviously!) and changes Video Settings (resolution etc..) to standard state (when no video is connected). Now, most times when I reactivate the AV Reciever, Video Settings do no rechange to what I configured. ( and need for my TV to accept signal) Need to restart MacMini !

Is there no way to lock video settings and/or keep video output always on ?


Any Ideas ? Upgrade ?
