! For input components, connections other than HDMI connections are also possible (see Connecting your DVD
player with no HDMI output on page 45 ).
!
If you want to listen to the sound of the TV over the receiver, connect the receiver and TV with audio cables.
—
When the TV and receiver are connected by HDMI connections, if the TV supports the HDMI ARC (Audio
Return Channel) function, the sound of the TV can be input to the receiver via the HDMI OUT terminal, so
there is no need to connect an audio cable. In this case, set ARC at HDMI Setup to ON (see HDMI Setup on
page 86 ).
After setting the ARC , some time may be required for the connected device to be recognized and the sound to
be produced.
—
If you use a coaxial digital audio cable, you’ll need to tell the receiver which digital or analog audio input you
connected the TV to (see The Input Setup menu on page 62 ).
— Please refer to the TV’s operation manual for directions on connections and setup for the TV.
! If the TV to be connected using HDMI supports 4K/60p, you can switch the 4K/60p signal output setting in
accordance with TV performance. When the 4K/60p setting is changed to 4:4:4 , the video image may not be
output normally unless the HDMI cable supports 4K/60p 4:4:4 24 bit (18 Gbps transmission). In such a case,
select
4:2:0 ( page 92 ).
! You cannot input 4K/60p 4:4:4 24 bit video from HDMI IN 3 to the IN 5 terminal. Use the BD IN , HDMI IN 1 or
HDMI IN 2 terminal.
