information on different ways of listening to sources.
It is possible to check on the front panel display whether
or not multi-channel playback is being performed
properly. For details, see Auto Surround, ALC and Stream

on page 60 to THROUGH if you want to hear HDMI
audio output from your TV (no sound will be heard

adjusting the resolution settings on your component
or display. Note that some components (such as
video game units) have resolutions that may not be
