Using the Audio Settings

Note

The “Power Control” setting can be set only when the above “HDMI Control” setting is set to “On”.

HDMI power control only works with p-compatible components that support it and may not work properly with some components due to their settings or compatibility.

When set to “On”, power consumption will increase.

When set to “On”, regardless of whether the AV receiver is On or in Standby, both audio and video stream from an HDMI input will be output to the TV or other components via HDMI connec- tion (HDMI pass through function). When the HDMI pass through function activates in standby mode, HDMI THRU indi- cator will light.

The power consumption during standby mode will increase dur- ing the HDMI pass through function; however if your TV sup- ports CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), the power consumption can be saved in the following cases:

1.The TV is in standby mode.

2.You are watching a TV program.

Refer to the connected component’s instruction manual for details.

Set to “Off” when the TV is not compatible or when it is unclear whether the TV is compatible or not.
