A/V Receiver Control: Automatic Audio Switching
Perform one of these setups to enable the A/V receiver
to switch automatically to the correct audio input when
you select a device in the TV's Input Selection menu.
To set up control of an A/V receiver you need:
• The remote controls for both the TV and the A/V
receiver.
• The IR emitter cable supplied with the TV.
• Connecting cables
Two different setups are described here. Review the
descriptions to find the setup needed for your equip-

Audio Switching Setup 1: A/V receiver audio from the
TV's digital or analog audio output
Audio Available from TV only
•
Audio from ANT 1 and ANT 2 must be sent to
the A/V receiver from the TV's DIGITAL AUDIO
OUTPUT or analog AVR AUDIO OUTPUT.
Use Setup 1 to make the A/V receiver switch to its
designated TV audio input when viewing these sources.
Analog Stereo Audio
•
Audio from sources with only analog stereo output
(such as a VCR) can be sent either directly to the
A/V receiver or through to the TV and then on to the
A/V receiver.
Mitsubishi recommends you send audio through
the TV as shown in the example. Setup 1 causes
the A/V receiver to switch to its input designated for
TV audio.
If you have a digital A/V receiver, the TV makes the
audio available by converting analog audio to a
digital output.
• HDMI Digital Stereo Audio
Digital stereo audio from an HDMI connection
is available both in digital format (from the TV's
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack) and in analog
format (from the TV's AVR AUDIO OUTPUT jack).

A device can send digital surround sound such as
Dolby Digital or DTS directly to the A/V receiver,
bypassing the TV entirely. The device might be a DVD
player, cable box, or satellite receiver, and could have
HDMI output. A DVD player is used in this example.
Your setup may include additional devices with digital
surround sound connected directly to the A/V receiver.
These devices might be a DVD player plus a cable box
or satellite receiver.
