Audio TV Out

This preference determines whether audio received at the HDMI IN is output by the HDMI OUT. You may want to turn this preference on if your TV is connected to the HDMI OUT and you want to listen to the audio from a component that’s connected to an HDMI IN, through your TV’s speakers. Normally, this should be set to “Off”.

Off: HDMI audio is not output (default).

On: HDMI audio is output.

Notes:

If Onis selected and the signal can be output by the TV, the AV receiver/AV amplifier will output no sound through its speakers.

When TV Controlis enabled, this setting is set to Auto.

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

When the “Audio TV Out” setting is set to On, or TV Control” is set to “Enable” and you’re listening through your TV’s speakers (see page 34), if you turn

up the AV receiver/AV amplifier’s volume control, the sound will be output by the AV receiver/AV ampli- fier’s front left and right speakers. To stop the AV receiver/AV amplifier’s speakers producing sound, change the settings, change your TV’s settings, or turn down the AV receiver/AV amplifier’s volume.

Notes:

This function works only if your HDMI-compatible TV supports HDMI Lip Sync.

You can check the amount of delay being applied by the HDMI Lip Sync function on the A/V Sync screen (see page 87).
