Connecting to an HDTV with an HDMI Connector
Required cables:
•
1 HDMI-to-HDMI cable
Important Notes Regarding the HDMI Interface on the Set-Top
The HDMI interface automatically confi gures the audio output for a format supported by the television. Because not all
TVs support the Dolby
®
Digital input, the HDMI interface may automatically select a 2-channel stereo audio confi guration
instead of Dolby Digital, which it carries over to the other digital audio outputs of the set-top. This prevents your home
theater system or Dolby Digital decoder from providing the full Dolby Digital surround-sound effect.
You can override this confi guration by completing the following steps.
1. Press
SETTINGS
twice on the remote control to open the General Settings menu.
2. Press
MOVE UP
or
MOVE DOWN
to select the option Audio: Digital Out.
3. Press
MOVE RIGHT
to select Dolby Digital. This setting will send Dolby Digital audio to the HDMI, DIGITAL
AUDIO OUT, and OPTICAL AUDIO OUT connectors on the set-top.
Notes
:
•
If the TV is not Dolby Digital capable, it may not produce audio through its speakers when the Audio: Digital Out
setting on the set-top is set to Dolby Digital. You can either switch the Audio: Digital Out setting back to HDMI
when you are not using the home theater or Dolby Digital decoder, or you can connect the baseband audio outputs
(OUT 1 Audio Left and Right) to the TV.
•
Digital content is encrypted with High-Bandwidth Content Protection (HDCP) on the DVI/HDMI port. This set-top
is not compatible with devices that do not support HDCP. You must use either the YPbPr or 1394 connection to
connect the set-top to these devices.
