Connect with HDMI
Use an HDMI cable to connect a Home Theater
System (HTS) to the TV. You can connect a Philips
Soundbar or an HTS with a built-in disc player.
If the Home Theater System has no HDMI ARC
connection, add an optical audio cable to send the
sound of the TV picture to the Home Theater System.
Audio to video synchronization (sync)
If the sound does not match the video on screen, you
can set a delay on most Home Theater Systems with
a disc player to match the sound with the video.

Audio Out Delay
With a Home Theater System (HTS) connected to the
TV, the picture on the TV and the sound from the HTS
should be synchronized.
Automatic audio to video sync
With recent Philips Home Theater Systems, the audio
to video sync is done automatically and always
correct.
Audio sync delay
For some Home Theater Systems you may need to
adjust the audio sync delay to synchronize the audio
to the video. On the HTS, increase the delay value
until there is a match between picture and sound. A
delay value of 180ms may be required. Read the user
manual of the HTS. With a delay value set up on the
HTS, you need to switch off Audio Out delay on the
TV.
