When you connect components to both digital
and analog audio input jacks on the receiver,

them, or switch from one to the other,
depending on the type of material you intend
to watch.
In addition, the Audio Return Channel (ARC)
function is available by selecting “AUTO,” if
TV input is selected and your TV is
