the devices. It may solve the problem.

the TV
• “AV 4” is set as TV audio input at the factory. If you have connected any external device to the AV 4 jacks or
if you want to use another input jack (other than OPTICAL) for connecting the TV, use “TV Audio Input”
(p.60) in the “Setup” menu to change the TV audio input assignment. To use the SCENE function (p.34),
you also need to change the input assignment for SCENE(TV).

If you switch the input source of the unit to “AV 4” using the AV 4 or SCENE(TV) keys,
the TV audio will be played back on the unit.

than OPTICAL) for connecting the TV, connect the TV to one of the AV 1–5 and AUDIO 1–2 jacks. To use
the SCENE function (p.34), you also need to change the input assignment for SCENE(TV).
