I am not able to get audio on AAC format files. All audio format on Audio output is selected on my WD media center. I have Yamaha HTR 7063 receiver. I get video but no audio.
Any help.
Thanks

The Yamaha never says it would decode AAC. You should probably have left your discs as AC3/DTS when you were ripping them, and not converted the audio to AAC in the first place.
In any case, of course it’s ouputting nothing if you’re sending it an AAC signal.
However…
I thought that an update to the Live Hub had it outputting AAC as stereo LPCM if the amp reported that it doesn’t speak AAC when AAC was bitstreamed to it. It sounds like either you need to update your Hub firmware, or your Yamaha isn’t saying “no comprendo” to the WDTV when it gets the bitstream. I don’t have any AAC files myself… I’m just going by what WD and others have reported.
