What is "BRAVIA" Sync?
"BRAVIA" Sync is compatible with a Sony
TV, Blu-ray Disc/DVD player, AV amplifier,
etc., that is equipped with the Control for
HDMI function.
By connecting Sony components that are
compatible with the "BRAVIA" Sync with a
HDMI cable (not supplied), operation is
simplified as below:
• One-Touch Play: When you play back a
component such as a DVD/Blu-ray Disc
Player, the receiver and the TV are turned on
automatically and switch to the appropriate
HDMI input.
• System Audio Control: While watching TV,
you can select to output the sound from the
TV speaker or the speakers connected to the
receiver.
• System Power Off: When you turn off the
TV, the receiver and connected components
are also turned off simultaneously.
Control for HDMI is a mutual control function
standard used by HDMI CEC (Consumer
Electronics Control) for HDMI (High-
Definition Multimedia Interface).
The Control for HDMI function
does not work in the following
cases:
• When you connect the receiver to a
component which is not correspond with
Sony's Control for HDMI function.
• When you connect the receiver and
