receiver, bypassing the TV entirely. A DVD player is

more) devices with digital surround sound connected
directly to the A/V receiver. These devices could be
your DVD player plus a cable box or satellite receiver.
• Audio Directly from TV. Audio from
ANT 1
and
ANT 2
, memory cards, and IEEE 1394 devices is
sent to the A/V receiver from the TV’s analog
AUDIO
OUT LEFT/RIGHT
or DIGITAL AUDIO OUT. In
this setup, you tell NetCommand to switch to the A/V
receiver’s designated TV audio input.
• Analog Stereo Output Only. Audio from sources
with only analog stereo output (such as a VCR) can be
sent directly to the A/V receiver or directly to the TV
first and then on to the A/V receiver.
Mitsubishi recommends you send audio directly to the
TV, which can convert the signal to digital audio and
send it to a digital A/V receiver as digital audio.

IMPORTANT
All audio from what you are watching on
the TV is always available as an output on
both the TV’s AUDIO OUT LEFT/RIGHT and
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT jacks.
To use the surround sound capabilities of your
A/V receiver however, you must connect your
DVD player, satellite receiver, or cable box
directly to the A/V receiver, as surround sound
may not be available from the TV’s audio output.
