TV connection

Connect the satellite receiver (HDMI or alternatively TV Scart socket) and the TV set using a HDMI or Scart cable (see the connection example above).

Connection and setup

Audio connection

Digital

There are two ways you can access the digital audio.

HDMI

The stereo audio is transmitted to your TV set via the HDMI interface. If your TV set also supports Dolby Digital, you can also receive the Dolby Digital audio via the HDMI interface (providing it is broadcast by the channel provider). On this issue refer to the operating manual for your TV set.

SPDIF Dolby Digital output (optical)

The SPDIF outputs are intended for the connection of a Dolby Digital system (see “Advanced connection example” in the technical appendix). Connect the SPDIF output (electrical or optical) to the Dolby Digital system using an appropriate cable.

Analogue

If you want to play the sound on your hi-fi system, connect the audio cinch sockets to the input sockets on the hi-fi system, using an appropriate cable (see "Advanced connection example" in the technical appendix).

Connecting up the Video/DVD recorder

Use a Scart cable to connect the satellite receiver (VCR Scart socket) to the video recorder/PVR. To play back a DVD, i.e. output the signal from the PVR through the receiver on the TV set, the TV set must also be connected to the receiver with a Scart cable. This is necessary because the video signal from the VCR Scart socket of the receiver is not looped through / forwarded to the HDMI output of the receiver.

Tipp!

If you are recording via an external video recorder/DVD, remember not to operate the receiver during recording, otherwise all the on-screen displays will appear on your recording.
