8. Installing and Using the SOUND HUB HDMI Module
8.3 Using Your HDMI Equipped SOUND HUB
With your SOUND HUB HDMI module installed, configured
and connected to a TV ARC or eARC HDMI socket, you will
be able to enjoy uncompressed PCM audio as well as Dolby
Digital and DTS encoded multi-channel audio from up to
seven wireless speaker channels and one wireless subwoofer
channel. The full range of multi-channel SOUND HUB HDMI
compatible encoding formats, together with their speaker
channel complements is listed in table T 3.
The SOUND HUB HDMI module will automatically identi the
encoding format of any HDMI signal, decode it appropriately
and route it to the appropriate speaker channels. If the
SOUND HUB HDMI upmix function is engaged, material
encoded for fewer speakers than are available will be
intelligently distributed to all speaker channels. The encoding
and channel formats of HDMI material will be briefly shown
sequentially on the SOUND HUB display when the HDMI
input is selected, as well as whenever the format changes.
The SOUND HUB HDMI input is included in the SOUND
HUB Auto Signal Sensing functions and will be selected
automatically when the TV is switched on if no other SOUND
HUB input is active at the time.
NOTE:
If the SOUND HUB display shows “PCM” when a multi-
channel HDMI signal is selected, this indicates that Dolby
or DTS decoding has been implemented internally by the
source TV and that multiple individual audio channels are
being delivered to the SOUND HUB. Due to variations in TV
decoding performance however we recommend that Dolby
and DTS decoding is best handled by the SOUND HUB. To
disable TV decoding, open the TV setup menus and switch
o any internal multi-channel decoding options. If in doubt,
refer to the TV user manual.
