This is similar to a problem I ran into with a Scientific Atlanta HD DVR, HDMI output, and Gefen HDMI switcher.
If we switched the Gefen away from the cable box, then back again, the cable box would be on channel 1, the video on demand channel. This is just like the channel that comes up when you turn on a hotel TV. There was no way I could find to have the cable box stay on the previous channel. (I just realized I should have placed a previous channel command in the turn-on macro!)
Anyway, I tested many things on that system, and it all came down to "switching the HDMI input changed the cable box." That always made it happen, and nothing else made it happen.
Perhaps the video settings thing has to do with switching HDMI.
Does anybody out there know if HDMI is supposed to carry command or setup information BACK to the source, or does it just have audio and video?
(This will be a separate thread)

A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
