• S/PDIF optical – The S/PDIF optical connector outputs a digital
audio signal. To use the optical output, connect a TOSLINK optical
cable from the amplifier to the Optical or S/PDIF connector on the
TV.
Important:
To make sure the S/PDIF outputs audio reliably, you must turn off
the TV’s speakers. To do so, from the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings
> Audio > Speakers and change the setting to Off.
Note:
Dolby Audio™ support for Dolby Digital Plus™ format is not available
through the S/ PDIF optical output. This format is only available through the
HDMI
®
ARC connection.
Tip:
Even when you use S/PDIF for audio, the TV can correctly detect more
audio formats if you connect HDMI
®
cable between the TV’s ARC or eARC port
and the receiver’s ARC or eARC port.
Choosing an audio format
After making the required HDMI
®
ARC, eARC, or S/PDIF optical connection, go to
Settings > Audio > S/PDIF and ARC option and select the audio format to use.
Choosing Auto detect is the easy solution, and generally provides good results.
However, if you have a high-end sound system and want to make sure you are getting
the best sound quality available in the programs you are watching, you can choose
another setting.
• Auto detect – Automatically detects the incoming audio format and
transcodes it to a compatible available format for the audio output (ARC,
eARC, or S/PDIF).
• Auto passthrough – Passes through the input audio to the connected receiver
without transcoding, sometimes resulting in better audio quality especially for
high-end audio formats such as those that take advantage of the higher
bandwidth of eARC, including Dolby MAT and Dolby Digital Plus 7.1, among
others.
• PCM-Stereo – Always outputs pulse-code modulated stereo, regardless of
input audio format.
• Dolby Digital – Converts all input formats to Dolby Digital.
