There are two ways you can access the digital audio.
HDMI
The stereo audio is transmitted to your TV set via the HDMI interface. If your TV set also supports Dolby
Digital, you can also receive the Dolby Digital audio via the HDMI interface (providing it is broadcast by
the channel provider). On this issue refer to the operating instructions for your TV set.
SPDIF Dolby Digital output (electrical/optical)
The SPDIF outputs are intended for the connection of a Dolby Digital system (see "Advanced connection
example" in the technical appendix). Connect the SPDIF output (electrical or optical) to the Dolby Digital
system using an appropriate cable.
If you want to play the sound on your hi-fi system, connect the audio cinch sockets to the input sockets
on the hi-fi system, using an appropriate cable (see "Advanced connection example" in the technical
appendix).
Connect the satellite receiver (VCR/AUX Scart socket) to the video recorder/DVR using a Scart cable.
To play back a DVD, i.e. output the signal from the PVR through the receiver on the TV set, the TV set
must also be connected to the receiver with a Scart cable. This is necessary because the video signal from
the VCR Scart socket of the receiver is not looped through/forwarded to the HDMI output of the receiver.
Tip!
If you are recording via an external video recorder/DVD, remember not to operate the receiver
during recording, otherwise all the on-screen displays will appear on your recording.
During recording with a video/DVD recorder, no channel may be viewed other than the one being
recorded. Only if the recording is on to a USB hard disk can any other channel be viewed.
If the receiver is started by means of a timer recording, there will be no picture on your TV set.
Only when the standby button (On/Off) is pressed will a TV picture be visible or the receiver
begin operation.
