iniTiAL SETUP
HDMI Audio to TV: Determines whether HDMI audio signals
are passed through the HDMI Output to the video display. In normal
operation, leave this setting OFF, as audio will be played through
the AVR. To use the TV by itself, without the home theater system,
turn this setting ON. Mute the TV’s speakers when using the AVR for
audio.
Semi-OSD Time Out: Program the amount of time
(2 to 5 seconds) the two-line semi-OSD status messages remain
on screen, or deactivate the semi-OSD display altogether if you find
it distracting. These messages will continue to appear on the front
panel of the receiver.
Full-OSD Time Out: Program the amount of time (20, 30,
40 or 50 seconds) the full-OSD menus remain visible on screen.
The full-OSD system may not be deactivated.
NOTE: It isn’t possible to view video sources while the full-
OSD menus are displayed.
