HDMI mini connection to denon AVR HDMI ARC and then to LG. HDMI arc

I’ve connected my HDMI mini to the satellite HDMI on my Denon receiver. I then connected the HDMI arc from the Denon receiver to the HDMI arc on the LG TV. I have no picture or sound? Anybody have any ideas

Verify that the TV is on the correct HDMI input/source.

Try connecting the Mini Genie Client to the TV directly.

Make sure HDMI cords are secure on all sides of course.

What model Mini Genie Client?

What model main Genie?

Completely blank screen or any error messages?

Other issues?

*The only way I have been able to get picture and tv sound (internal speaker) is By connecting the satellite mini directly to the TV with hdmi & bypassing the denon AVR. But that Bypasses the AVR & I get nothing through my AVR and the exterior speakers. I have to change the TV settings from ARC to HDMI 1 or 2 (2 is ARC) & reconnect Satellite HDMI to TV to the corresponding HDMI one or three slot

*TV sound etc is set on ARC

* The LG TV connection setup gor the satellite box is confusing. The connection set up allows for the The satellite box to be connected to the TV by HDMI 1, 2 or 3, Component or optical. It doesn’t allow an option to connct the mini into the AVR satellite hdmi. Not sure what to select
