When the receiver (home theatre) is set to on, you can hear sound output from the TV’s optical jack. When the TV
is receiving a DTV signal, the TV will send 5.1 CH sound to the home theatre receiver. When the source is a digital
component such as a DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB (Set-Top-Box) satellite receiver and is connected to
the TV via HDMI, only 2 CH audio will be heard from the home theatre receiver. If you want to hear 5.1 CH audio,
connect the digital audio out jack from your DVD / Blu-ray player / cable box / STB satellite receiver directly to an
amplifier or home theatre.
