This preference determines whether the incoming audio signal is output from the HDMI output. You may want to turn this preference on if your TV is connected to the HDMI output and you want to listen to the audio from a connected component through your TV’s speakers.

If “On” is selected and the audio can be output from the TV, the AV receiver will output no sound through its speakers. In this case, “TV Speaker” appears on the AV receiver’s display by pressing DISPLAY.

When “HDMI Control(RIHD)” is set to “On”, this setting is fixed to “Auto”.

With some TVs and input signals, no sound may be output even when this setting is set to “On”.
