A/V Receiver Control: Automatic Audio
and Vi deo Switching via HDMI
If your A/V receiver has an HDMI output, you can use
this procedure to set up control of the A/V receiver's
audio and video switching. The HDMI connection
allows you to route video signals from multiple devices
over a single cable to the TV. See the diagram on the
opposite page . The connected devices can be analog,
digital, or a mixture or the two.
More About Using an HDMI Connection
•
Audio from devices connected directly to the TV
can be heard from the TV speakers only. This is
because audio signals are sent on the HDMI cable
in one direction only—through the A/V receiver to
the TV speakers.
To send audio to the A/V receiver from a device
connected directly to the TV, use one of the optional
audio connections shown in the diagram. For
example, use an optional audio connection if you
wish to use the A/V receiver speakers to hear audio
from:
-
The
ANT 1 or ANT 2 inputs
-
A device connected to the convenience input
(INPUT 4), such as a game or camcorder.
•
In some circumstances, audio from a device con-
nected to the A/V receiver may not be passed over
the HDMI cable to the TV speakers. You must use
the A/V receiver speakers to hear audio in these
cases.
Before You Begin
To complete these steps you will need:
•
The remote controls for both the TV and the
A/V receiver.
•
The IR emitter cable supplied with the TV.
•
An HDMI-to-HDMI cable to connect the A/V
receiver to the TV and cables necessary to
connect devices to the A/V receiver.
1.
Connect your audio/video devices to the A/V
receiver. Note the name of the device connected
to each A/V receiver input. This information will be
needed later to set up NetCommand's automatic
input switching.
2.
Connect the A/V receiver to the TV with an HDMI-
to-HDMI cable.
3.
Connect the IR emitter cable to the TV and position
the IR emitter where it can send signals to the A/V
receiver. See "IR Emitter Placement," page 56 .
