About HDMI Control

HDMI Control allows you to operate external devices via HDMI. If you connect a TV
that supports HDMI Control to this unit with an HDMI cable, you can control this unit
(power, volume, etc.) in conjunction with TV remote control operations. You can also
control playback devices (HDMI Control-compatible BD/DVD player, etc.)
connected to this unit with an HDMI cable. For details, see “HDMI Control” (p.121).

About Audio Return Channel (ARC)

ARC allows audio signals to travel both ways under HDMI Control. So if you connect
a TV that supports HDMI Control and ARC to this unit with a single HDMI cable, you
can output video/audio to the TV or input TV audio to this unit.
