About HDMI Control
HDMI Control allows you to operate external devices via HDMI. If you connect a TV
that supports HDMI Control to the unit with an HDMI cable, you can control the unit's

devices (such as an HDMI Control-compatible BD/DVD player) connected to the
unit with an HDMI cable. For details, see "HDMI Control" (p.115).

TV that supports HDMI Control and ARC to the unit with a single HDMI cable, you
