Listening to Audio Sources
press the
Aux
button on the remote control. The receiver will switch to the audio input
that was selected last. subsequent presses of the aux button will advance through the
audio inputs in the following order:
Coax In, Optical In 1, Optical In 2, Aux In 1, Aux In 2
and
HDMI ARC
(audio Return Channel). The aux Input Now playing screen will appear on
the TV or flat-panel display.
AUX allows you to listen to the audio of an external source
device that you have connected to the audio inputs of the BDS.
To toggle through the avaiable inputs press the AUX button on
the remote repeatedly.
You can program the BDS remote to control external devices
when the AUX button is selected. For additional information on
programming the remote or learning individual button codes of
an external source remote control please refer to the Owners
Manual.
Press the ‘Options’ button and follow the front panel display if
you would like to adjust the Lip sync for this source.
COAX IN
In addition to playing the aux source through the receiver, pressing the aux button places
the remote in the aux-control mode. If you programmed the remote to control an auxiliary
component (either by entering in a code number or teaching commands to the remote),
the remote will now operate according to that programming mode. (see
Programming
the Remote Control,
on page 13.)
Lip sync delay:
when playing an aux source, audio and video processing circuitry may
create a slight delay between the picture and sound. pressing the Options button lets
you adjust the audio delay to eliminate “lip sync” errors that may occur between the
sound and picture in video programs with sound playing through one of the receiver’s
rear-panel audio inputs. Use the Cursor Up/Down buttons to increase or decrease the
audio delay until the perceived lip-sync errors disappear and the sound and picture are
properly synchronized. The amount of audio delay is shown on the receiver’s front-panel
Information display.
