What is Audio Return Channel (ARC)?
In order for the unit to play audio from a TV, the TV must usually be connected to
the unit via an audio cable as well as an HDMI cable. If, however, the TV supports
Audio Return Channel (ARC), TV audio signals can be input to the unit via the
HDMI cable that outputs video signals from the unit to the TV.
NOTE
▪ Connect an HDMI cable to the audio return channel supported jack (the jack with
"ARC" indicated) on TV.
▪ Enable the HDMI control function of the unit to activate the Audio Return Channel
(ARC). For details, see the following:
– "Configuring the HDMI control function" (p.35)
▪ Use a 19-pin HDMI cable with the HDMI logo printed on it. A cable with a
maximum length of 5 m (16 ft) is recommended to prevent degradation of signal
quality.
▪ Use a premium high-speed HDMI cable for playback of 3D and 4K video content.
▪ The unit supports HDCP version 2.2, a copy protection technology. For playback
of 4K video, connect the unit to the HDMI input jack (one compatible with HDCP
2.2) on an HDCP 2.2-compliant TV.
▪ The TV input jack cannot be used when a TV that supports the Audio Return
Channel is connected to the unit.
