Automatic Audio/Video Switching Over an HDMI Connection

If your A/V receiver has an HDMI output, it may be con- venient to send audio and video to the TV over a single HDMI cable through the A/V receiver. The following setup enables the A/V receiver to switch automatically to the correct input when you select a device in the TV’s Input Selection menu. The connected source devices can be analog, digital, or a mixture or the two.

More About Using an HDMI Connection

• Audio from devices connected directly to the

TV can be heard from the TV speakers only.

To send audio to the A/V receiver from such

devices, use one of the optional audio con-

nections shown in the diagram on the next

page. For example, use an optional audio

connection if you wish to use the A/V receiver

speakers to hear audio from:

-- The ANT input

-- A game or camcorder connected to the

TV.

• To use NetCommand to supplement HDMI

control of a CEC-enabled A/V receiver, the

recommended setup sequence is:

1. Connect the HDMI cable.

A/V Receiver

Use NetCommand to switch an A/V receiver automatically to the correct audio and video inputs for a device (available only with an HDMI output to the TV as shown).

4. Perform NetCommand setup.

If you perform A/V receiver NetCommand setup first and then later connect an HDMI cable, the NetCommand setup will be lost.

•In some cases, audio from a device connected to the A/V receiver may not be passed over the HDMI cable to the TV speakers. In these cases you must use the A/V receiver speakers to hear audio.
