Home Theater System - HTS
Connect with HDMI ARC
Use an HDMI cable to connect a Home Theater
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 Theater System has an HDMI ARC
connection, you can use any HDMI 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.
All HDMI connections on the TV can offer the Audio
Return Channel (ARC) signal, but once you have
connected the Home Theater System, the TV can
only send the ARC signal to this HDMI connection.
Audio to video synchronization (sync)
If the sound does not match the video on screen, you
can set a delay on most Home Theater Systems with
a disc player to match the sound with the video.
For more information, press the color

Keywords and look up Audio to Video
Sync.
