Note

The audio signals from HDMI OUT jack (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) maybe limited by the device that is connected.

Among the devices that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (e.g, projectors). In connections with device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from HDMI OUT jack.

Video and audio signals may be distorted temporarily when switching to / from the HDMI output mode.
