HANNEL MODE
The HDMI protocol includes information specifying the number of audio channels in the HDMI stream. The
number of audio channels that the nanoAVR DL signals on its HDMI output to the downstream HDMI device is
selected by the Channel Mode dropdown selector:
Auto
The number of output channels signaled is the same as received on the selected input. For
example, if the selected source signals that HDMI audio is carrying a stereo signal, the nanoAVR
DL passes this to its output. If the source signals that HDMI audio is carrying six channels (5.1),
the nanoAVR DL passes this to its output. And so on. This is the recommended (and default)
setting for the nanoAVR DL.
Stereo
The nanoAVR DL always signals stereo output, regardless of the number of input channels.
4.0
The nanoAVR DL always signals four-channel output, regardless of the number of input channels.
5.1
The nanoAVR DL always signals six-channel output, regardless of the number of input channels.
7.1
The nanoAVR DL always signals eight-channel output, regardless of the number of input
channels.
