With this selection the TV’s audio can be automati- cally selected as a priority among other assignments.

`HDMI:

This can be selected when HDMI IN has been assigned as an input source. If both HDMI (HDMI IN) and digital audio inputs (COAXIAL IN or OPTI- CAL IN) have been assigned, HDMI input is auto- matically selected as a priority.
