TV audio can be played through this unit by switching input to HDMI using the HDMI
key on the remote control.
• Once the HDMI control function has been activated (p. 19), video and audio content from playback devices
can be output from the TV even when this unit is off (HDMI signal pass-through).
• Use a 19-pin HDMI cable with the HDMI logo printed on it. A cable with a maximum length of 5 m is
recommended to prevent degradation of signal quality.
• For playback of 3D and 4K video content, use a high-speed HDMI cable.
• If the video device has an HDCP 2.2-compliant HDMI output jack, connect the unit to that jack.

optical cable to connect the video device to the unit via the digital optical output jack on the video device

setting in the setup menu from "Audio Assign" to "Optical".
