Audio Routing
INTRODUCTION
There are two modes, one is
Source Mode
, and the other is
Sink Mode
.
Source Mode
is the legacy routing where the audio outputs are locked to HDMI inputs ports
respectively (Input 1 to Output 1 and so on).
Sink Mode
allows audio routing to any of the audio output zones, enabling the audio to be controlled
completely separately from the video. The system has an audio locking feature to enable continuous
audio to an output zone regardless of switching video sources.
Note: Audio will not be manipulated at this stage, however if audio output are connected to stereo/phono
jacks, the video matrix will downmix the audio automatically. The process will downmix multichannel
audio (Dolby 5.1, not DTS) to stereo (2 ch).
Note: Some changes especially enabling ARC require to reboot the video matrix in order for the
changes to take effect.
