The TV supports also eARC (Enhanced Audio Return
Channel) feature. Similar to ARC, the eARC feature
enables the transfer of the digital audio stream from
your TV to a connected audio device via the HDMI
cable. eARC is an improved version of ARC. It has
a much higher bandwidth than its predecessor.
Bandwidth represents the range of frequencies or
amount of data that is being transferred at a time.
Higher bandwidth translates into a higher amount of
data that can be transferred. Higher bandwidth also
means that digital audio signal doesn't have to be
compressed and is much more detailed, rich, and
vibrant.
When eARC is enabled from the sound menu, TV
first tries to establish eARC link. If eARC is supported
by the connected device, the output turns into eARC
mode and the "eARC" indicator can be observed on
the connected device's OSD. If an eARC link cannot
be established (for example, the connected device
is not supporting eARC but supporting ARC only) or
if eARC is disabled from the sound menu, then TV
initiates ARC.
In order to activate ARC feature the eARC option
should be set as Auto. You can access this option from
the TV options>Settings>Device Preferences>Sound
menu in Live TV mode or from Settings>Device Pref-
erences>Sound menu on the Home Screen. When
eARC is active, TV will mute its other audio outputs
automatically. So you will hear audio from the con-
nected audio device only. The volume control buttons
of the remote will be directed to the connected audio
device and you will be able to control the volume of
the connected device with your TV remote.
For eARC to function properly;
• The connected audio device should also support eARC.
• Some HDMI cables do not have enough bandwidth to
carry high-bit-rate audio channels, use an HDMI cable
(HDMI High Speed Cables with
with eARC support
Ethernet and the new Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable
- check hdmi.org for latest info) .
Note: eARC is supported only via the HDMI2 input.
