(2) About number of output channels of multi-channel audio
When·outputting·bitstream·signals·to·two·HDMI·devices,·the·signals·are·output·to·both·HDMI·devices·
if·they·both·support·bitstream·signals.·Of·only·one·device·support·bit·stream,·LPCM·is·output·to·the·
device,·which·does·not·support·bit·stream.·
When·outputting·LPCM·signals·to·two·HDMI·devices,·it·is·not·possible·to·output·multi-channel·audio·
signals·with·different·numbers·of·channels·to·the·two·HDMI·devices.
When·the·number·of·channels·of·multi-channel·audio·supported·by·the·connected·2·HDMI·devices·
are·different,·the·audio·signal·output·to··each·mode·becomes·as·follows:
• HDMI Auto (Dual) :
Outputs·multi-channel·audio·of·less·number·of·channels·to·both·devices.·
If·the·supported·number·of·channels·is·7.1·channel·and·5.1·channel,·respectively,·5.1·channel·audio·
is·output.·If·the·supported·number·of·channels·is·multi-channel·and·2-channel·(or·2.1-channel),·multi-
channel·and·2-channel·are·output.
• HDMI Auto (Independent) :
Multi-channel·audio·is·output·as·is·to·the·device,·which·supports·more·number·of·channels.·
LPCM·audio·of·2-channel·is·output·to·the·other·device.·
We·recommend·you·use·this·mode·when·outputting·to·both·an·AV·Amp·and·TV.
