of both the TV and the system.
" 5,1 OH (channel) audio is available when the TV is connected to an external device supporting 5.1 OH.
" When the receiver (amplifier or DVD home theater) is set to on, you can hear sound output from the TV's
optical jack. When the TV is receiving a DTV signal, the TV will send 5,1 OH sound to the amplifier or DVD
home theater, When the source is a digital component such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB
(Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver and is connected to the TV via HDMI, only 2 OH audio will be heard from the
amplifier or DVD home theater. If you want to hear 5,1 CH audio, connect the digital audio out jack from your
DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB satellite receiver directly to an amplifier or home theater.
