Tips on connections

Connectivity guide

Always connect a device to the TV with the highest quality connection available. Also, use good quality cables to ensure a good transfer of picture and sound.

If you need help to connect several devices to the TV, you can visit the Philips TV connectivity guide. The guide offers information on how to connect and which cables to use.

Go to

www.connectivityguide.philips.com

Antenna

If you have a Set-top box (a digital receiver) or Recorder, connect the antenna cables to run the antenna signal through the Set-top box and/or Recorder first before it enters the TV. In this way, the antenna and the Set-top box can send possible additional channels to the Recorder to record.

DVI to HDMI

Use a DVI to HDMI adapter if your device only has a DVI connection. Use one of the HDMI connections and add an Audio L/R cable (mini-jack 3.5mm) to AUDIO IN for sound, on the back of the TV.

Copy protection

DVI and HDMI cables support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection). HDCP is a copy protection signal that prevents copying content from a DVD disc or Blu-ray Disc. Also referred to as DRM (Digital Rights Management).

HDMI ARC

If the device, typically a Home Theatre Sysytem (HTS), also has the HDMI ARC connection, connect it to any of the HDMI connections on this TV. With the HDMI ARC connection, you do not need to connect the extra audio cable that sends the sound of the TV picture to the HTS. The HDMI ARC connection combines both signals. You can use HDMI 1 or HDMI 2 connection on this TV to connect the HTS but ARC is only available for 1 device/connection at a time.

HDMI

HDMI CEC

An HDMI connection has the best picture and sound quality. One HDMI cable combines video and audio signals. Use an HDMI cable for High Definition (HD) or Ultra HD (UHD) TV signals. For best signal quality transfer, use a High speed HDMI cable and do not use an HDMI cable longer than 5 m.

In case you prefer to switch off ARC on the HDMI connections, press and select Select

The Audio Out - Optical connection sends the sound from the TV to the HTS.

EasyLink HDMI CEC

EasyLink

With EasyLink you can operate a connected device with the TV remote control. EasyLink uses HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) to communicate with the connected devices. Devices must support HDMI CEC and must be connected with an HDMI connection.

EasyLink setup

The TV comes with EasyLink switched on. Make sure that all HDMI CEC settings are properly set up on the connected EasyLink devices. EasyLink might not work with devices from other brands.

HDMI CEC on other brands

The HDMI CEC functionality has different names on different brands. Some examples are: Anynet, Aquos Link, Bravia Theatre Sync, Kuro Link, Simplink and Viera Link. Not all brands are fully compatible with EasyLink.

Example HDMI CEC branding names are property of their respective owners.

Operate devices

To operate a device connected to HDMI and set up with EasyLink, select the device - or its activity - in the list of TV connections. Press  an HDMI connection and press OK.

Audio Out settings

Use an HDMI cable to connect a Home Theatre System (HTS) to the TV. You can connect a Philips Soundbar or an HTS with a built-in disc player.

HDMI ARC

If your Home Theatre System has an HDMI ARC connection, you can use HDMI ARC connection on the TV to connect. With HDMI ARC, you do not need to connect the extra audio cable. The HDMI ARC connection combines both signals. Only HDMI ARC connections on the TV can offer the Audio Return Channel (ARC) signal. But once you have connected the Home Theatre System, the TV can only send the ARC signal to this HDMI connection.

Audio Out delay

With a Home Theatre System (HTS) connected to the TV, the picture on TV and the sound from the HTS should be synchronised.

Automatic audio to video sync

With recent Philips Home Theatre Systems, the audio to video sync is done automatically synchronised and always correct.

Audio sync delay

For some Home Theatre Systems you might need to adjust the audio sync delay to synchronise the audio to the video. On the HTS, increase the delay value until there is a match between picture and sound. A delay value of 180ms may be required. Read the user manual of the HTS. With a delay value set up on the HTS, you need to switch off Audio out delay on the TV.
