A/V Receiver
Most setups require either a digital audio cable or
analog stereo audio cables. To send audio from TV
channels received on the
ANT
input or devices con-
nected directly to the TV, you must use one of the con-
nections shown below.
The TV makes all audio available in digital and analog
formats:
Analog audio coming into the TV is available as •
output in digital stereo format on the
DIGITAL
AUDIO OUTPUT
jack.
Digital incoming audio is available as analog output •
on the
AVR/SURROUND OUTPUT L
and
R
jacks.

Note:
On rare occasions, an HDMI signal may be •
copy-restricted and cannot be output from
the TV as a digital signal. To hear these copy-
protected signals through the A/V receiver, use
the connection for an analog A/V receiver.
Check the A/V receiver’s Owner’s Guide for •
information concerning use of the digital input
and switching between digital sound and
analog stereo sound from the TV.
A/V Receiver with HDMI Output
Required: One HDMI-to-HDMI cable
This option allows you to view content from devices
connected to an A/V receiver. The A/V receiver can
send audio and video to the TV over a single HDMI
cable. You can use an HDMI connection as described
here in addition to an audio connection from the TV’s
audio output. The optional audio connection allows you
to hear, through the A/V receiver, devices connected to
the TV only, e.g., an antenna on the
ANT
input.
You may be able to use the TV’s remote control •
(in
TV
mode) to operate connected CEC-enabled
HDMI devices. Experiment with your equipment to
determine which functions are available to the TV’s
remote control. See Appendix C, page 81.
265 Series:• This setup allows you to use NetCom-
mand-controlled audio and video switching over the
HDMI cable. See “Automatic Audio/Video Switch-
ing Over an HDMI Connection” on page 69.
265 Series:• To use NetCommand to supplement
HDMI control of a CEC-enabled A/V receiver, note
the recommendations under “More About Using an
HDMI Connection,” page 69.
