Connecting A Tv - Yamaha RX-V483 Owner's Manual

Connecting a TV

Connect a TV to the unit so that video input to the unit can be output to the TV. You
can also enjoy playback of TV audio on the unit.
To maximize the performance of the unit, we recommend connecting a TV with an
HDMI cable.

Note
▪ A digital optical cable connection allows audio from the TV to be played back on the unit. A digital optical
cable connection is not needed in the following cases:
– If your TV supports Audio Return Channel (ARC)
– If you will receive TV broadcasts only from the set-top box
▪ If you connect a TV that supports HDMI Control to the unit with an HDMI cable, you can control the unit's
power and volume with the TV's remote control.
To use HDMI Control and ARC, you need to configure the HDMI settings on the unit.
For details on the settings, see "Information on HDMI" (p.116).
About Audio Return Channel (ARC)
▪ ARC allows audio signals to travel both ways. If you connect a TV that supports ARC to the unit with a
single HDMI cable, you can output video/audio to the TV or input TV audio to the unit.
▪ When using ARC, connect a TV with an HDMI cable that supports ARC.
